How about bof? Example, I have to go bof places today. Ugh.

My DH says I pronounce words wrong sometimes but who is he to decide? You should hear the words he butchers with his accent.

I've never heard that, either.

My most hated...calling someone the "D word".

Or a "D-bag"

If I never heard that again, I'd be happylcry

It's so  demeaning to women, I can't stand it. 

I can't even understand, why women would use such a term.

It makes me sick.

I dislike, very strongly, anytime the English language is hacked apart and cobbled back together as if by a spastic maniac. Several good examples have already been mentioned.

"aks" when you mean "ask"
"could of", "should of" or "would of" when they should be "could've", "should've", or "would've"
"could care less" when you really "couldn't care less".

And generally any time something that's not a verb is used as one (there may be a few exceptions to that one though).

 There are some times that word is exactly the right word.  I use it to describe my SS's step father who is nothing but a drunk abusive ahole.  I think it fits rather nicely.

It irritates me that the dictionary gets altered to include the slang use of words such using 'literally' as a superlative.

 I was pronouncing it "boff" with a short "o."

Then the light dawned...

Chapter 11.

I thought I would hate this phase, the last Tuesday in May. Right before the wedding.

A few days later, maybe not.wink

Getta

Miley Cyrus says it all the time. It is used instead of get to or got to. As in "I getta go accept the award for biggest waste of oxygen".

Drives me batty.

Dis-associate. Or disassociate or however you spell it. It's not a word. The word is DISSOCIATE. There is no A in there. My pet peeve. Especially since as a counsellor we work with a lot of people who dissociate or are dissociative and professionals who should know better (or in the least, own a dictionary) use the word dis-associate. IT'S NOT A WORD! If it's your profession, learn the terminology! Read a damn book! Even google knows that dissociate doesn't have an A in it. And google is not a professional therapist.

 That's frustrating, Tig.

I am used to people saying "li-berry," but don't think I've ever heard a librarian mispronounce the word.

IMGUR is a photo sharing website. Other than that I don't know what anyone would mean by it.

 I didn't know that. Sorry.

It shows up frequently on Pinterest & seems to mean: "Oh my Gawd...something..."

This is an oldie, but it won't go away!

Any attempt to combine individual names of a man & woman when they are dating... "Brangelina" still makes me cringe.
