Don't like the following words.
I think they should be Banned.
Forthwith.
Moist
Scrotum
Gusset
Cruets
Partial
Toiletries
Serviettes
Leatherette
Kitchenette
Condiments
Not wild about 'nostril'.
Oh, and Chillax. Grrrr.
There. That's better.
Best to get these things off one's chest, I always think.

Scrotum. Hate that word! Always call that and it's related things "Bits and Pieces"...
As in "Littlest, you probably don't want to slide down the stair rail... you'll want your bits and pieces to work someday!"
LOL!!! Bet you hate that too! How I have missed you!
Another Day of Crazy - agreed wholeheartedly... much better than 'mind your scrotum, dear,'... (ouch, sliding down the stair rail...!)
Reasons - I HATE that!! Missed you too, darling girl. xx
You really have it in for the French and all their ettes suzette, crepes. For me I don't like saying the word squirrel. It makes my lips purse.
I was never partial to a leatherette gusset as no amount of toiletries could ease the resulting moist scrotum. But finally “chillaxed” after applying on a serviette a rare condiment found in a cruet in our old kitchenette. The smell though got up my nostrils.
Tattie - my children have just caught me saying 'squirrel' over and over again... and you are right... it makes your mouth go all funny. It also makes your children think one mad. xx
Troy - nothing quite like a moist scrotum... ewwww, I cant even bear to TYPE the words!! xx
Oh God - moist. I hate that word. What about membrane? *shudders*
I hate the word epitome. Purely because the first time I used it in conversation I pronounced it phonetically (ie epi-tome instead of epi-to-me) and everyone in my business meeting looked at me as if I was a few slices short of a whole loaf. Stupid word. Not. My. Friend.
Gusset. Just the most revolting word! I'm flinching with the thought of it!
Scrotum was, I believe, the wrinkled old retainer who worked for Lord Gusset, the well-known leatherette magnate.
I guess I will have to go look up on the Internet what a "serviette" is. We don't use that word in the U.S. but I have decided I don't like it either.
On the other hand, I think we should be more generous in our use of:
Parsimonious
Jejeune
Conflate
All conversations can be enriched with such words, in my view.
Oh, and there's never a wrong moment to say 'crikey'.
I hate quite a few of those although some of those are not used in Scotland anyway. Serviettes are napkins, no matter if they are paper or linen and eatherette is fake leather here. I really hate the word fags!
