- moist
- belly
- saliva
- cockroach
- maggot
My father can't stand the sound of "crotch" and "trousers". Is this an inherited family quirk, or does everyone have an aversion to certain words?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go clear my mind with some of the more perfect English words. Like "lettuce". And "crisp". And "salutations". Ahhhh...

I also don't like moist.
But belly? Heh.
The one word that makes me wince, shudder and just plain feel really ill I actually can't share here because it is a word so vile that one cannot write or say it in any type of polite company.
(Needless to say, if you need a hint...starts with a "c" and sounds like "grunt.")
@barb - I am so with you on "panties". *shudder*
@FireMom - I know, right? I ended up in the wrong corner of the blogosphere with that one.
Belly? Really? I'm totally with you on moist. Ew.
@Lori - For reals. Hate it, hate it, hate it.
@Jennifer - That one is vile for SO many reasons. Ugh.
I can't think of words I hate. Words I love include 'squirrel' (or 'squillel' as DS says), 'frock', 'pineappley' (tho maybe that isn't a real word!) and 'intriguing'.
I love:
fritter
madagascar
and
dip
Who knew so many people hated the word moist? I totally thought I was alone on that one...
How great that the internet can let us know we're not alone in our neurosis :)
Belly and maggot don't bother me, but I do hate cockroach. That one sends shivers down my spine... Mucus is also a nasty one. Ick!

"Panties" totally gives me the heebie-jeebies. Also, I'm good with "belly," but can't stand "tummy."
