Penultimate. Anyone writing about or reviewing the second last of anything uses it in their first breath like their English degree depends on it.
biweekly, bimonthly, etc.
Wtf does it mean? Twice a week? Every two weeks? Who knows. What’s the point of this word when it’s so ambiguous.
Lots of sex words, none of which I will list.
When people call sex “breeding”.
It sounds like some puritanical shit where they believe that sex is only for procreation.
I’d say that is more about a kink than anything remotely religious
It is, maybe, something very particular as I am not familiar with that term used through “Puritanical thingy”. Sorry, I am located in Europe and lack of knowledge about Puritans 😬 [ANSWER RECEIVED]

Did you look them up? That’s basically what most of the mainstream US churches are based off of.
I had to as I am not (like veeeerrry far away) familiar at all with any mainstream US churches phrases. At least, I have learnt something new
I uh… I’m not sure what your source is, but for mine ‘breeding’ is anything but “only for procreation”
E: in case it isn’t painfully obvious, I am le gay, so that may factor into your source woes :p
Apparently it’s urban slang.
Sounds like some misogynistic nonsense to me.
Tumescent
“Mouthfeel.” Especially if it’s a food show.
Trump
Slay because my 10 year uses it for everything. Slayalicious, slaytastic, slayme…
Nag. Just sounds harsh
Bungalow. Should be obvious.
People who shorten food names aren’t doing English any favors…
'za (Pizza), taters, sgetti, nanners, gnosh (im hungry I need some gnosh gnosh)
Can’t or won’t. Take your pick.
Any misspoken words, said with full confidence that it is correct.
I left him know.
There’s a woof in the backyard.
🐺 help I seem to be trapped in some human abomination. I mean, ehem. Woof woof woof woof.
Can I (aks) you something?
That one I hear so much, I’m afraid it will become the new normal way of pronouncing ask. Definitely bugs me!
Receive.
I think my grasp of English is pretty good, but this is one of the most common words I misspell on a regular basis. I have no idea why I keep wanting to write “recieve” instead.
I don’t hate it, but apparently they have done polls and often the top result is:
Moist
Interesting
Too many to count. A lot of the current slang
Rizz comes close to the top of the list
“Walkie-Talkie”
Its a “Handheld Transceiver” ffs, who the fuck gave it such a stupid name lmfao
Is a Telephone a “Chit-y-Chat-y”? A computer a “Beep-ie-Boop-ie”?
And who would ever use a childish word like “movie”? It’s called a moving picture.
Relevant greentext:
If you want to go deeper about that word:
The earliest known use of the noun walkie-talkie is in the 1930s.
OED’s earliest evidence for walkie-talkie is from 1939, in the San Antonio Express-News (San Antonio, Texas).
