  • Potty (okay not slang but it bothers me when I see grown men and women saying "I'll be right back, I need to go potty."  Maybe it's because I'm a teacher and I see parents coddling and using "cute" words for far too long.)

    Hella

  • Okay this isn't baby related, but my sister (senior in college, almost 22) has started saying "Shwasty" when describing people who are drunk.  Apparently it's a combination of "sh!tfaced" and "wasted".  Dumbest.word.ever.

  • Hubby, preggers, vay-kay (vacation), whatev, da bomb, hella...I'm sure there are more I'm forgetting.


  • finna (as in "when you finna be here?")

    I work at a college so we hear a lot of slang.

  • I find myself more annoyed by misuse of phrases.  "I could care less" should be "I COULDN'T care less"  etc...

  • swag (as in swagger)

    ugh enough with this damn word already!

  • I have some more:

    bling

    stellar (you sound like a 30 year old stoner when you say this)

    whatever (because it always reminds me of Clueless)

     

  • Lol...I dislike preggers and prego too.  I also can't stand it when people actually say OMG.  I don't mind it written but to say it sounds stupid to me lol. 
  • Preggo

  • Yonder or Over Yonder...probably the most annoying in my book!

     

  • Girl    as in- Hey Girl   or even worse giiirrrlllll, you don't even know.

    It's ridic.

  • My kid brother - age 12 - has started saying, "beast".

    "That is SO BEAST!"

    "Tony Hawk WAS beast."

    You get the idea. Annoying.

  • stomach.. when people say , your stomach is growing, actually its my uterus and the baby. My stomach is where my food first goes. Or when I'm teaching a class and the ladies say , when I lay on my stomach... why not say when I lay on my intestines?
  • "like" used as a filler word

    Its shocking to hear people speak who are used to using it.  It comes out of their mouth every 2-5 seconds.  Horrible speech habit.

  • When people use the word mad to stress something.

    Ex: That place was mad cool!   (drives me nuts:)

    But that's a real word - not slang. I love when my grandmother says it in her south Georgia accent.  

  • retarded and gay when used as insults / synonyms for "stupid."

    This!!!  Mine isn't a phrase but a word:  irregardless.  Don't you understand that's a double negative in one word?  Also when people try to use words that they don't usually use and they say it wrong.  My all time favorite is pacific for specific.

  • Thank you. This exactly. I consider this grounds to walk away from a conversation. 

    ETA: That was supposed to quote Heather R's comment on retarded/gay.

    I should have read more before I did my post.  I said the EXACT same thing.

  • okay so this isnt slang, but it still bugs the crap out of me...

    "we're pregnant" as in a man and woman....no, WE aren't.She is. You both might be "expecting" but you most certainly are not both pregnant...

  • "Holla!"  My co worker is saying this all the time now and its driving me crazy.

    "Ain't"   I live in Wis and it seems like many in my area have bad grammar, I'm originally from IL and no one used that word...Ain't isn't a word and sounds trashy to me.   "I ain't going to put up with that"  "I ain't going"  How hard is it to say "I'm not..." instead of ain't.

  • I'll add "Snap!" to the list.  I am still not completely sure what it means, but I wish it would go away.
  • Oooh, and "bling"
  • I hate the whole DH/DS/DD thing.  In real life I never call my husband "dear husband", and I won't be calling my child "dear son" or "dear daughter", so the abbreviation drives me nuts.

    I'll start.

    Hubby

    Preggers or prego

    All of these.  And I love your doggies :)

  • I hate when people start telling a story by saying, "Looky here...". Also when people say, "Do what?" when they mean, "What did you say?" DH is guilty of the latter and it drives me nuts.
