What word makes you cringe?

F#@k is a great f&%kin’ word! Few words apart from F%@k can be used as just about any part of speech. I’d give an example of each, but I fear I’m already pressing my f&#kin’ luck here. The other common words that are cringe worthy to many are the C-word (C U Next Tuesday), and Moist. Neither bothers me. Can’t really think of a word that does. But please don’t call 81 mg aspirin, Baby Aspirin! It’s Low Dose, not Baby. A word that has always puzzled me, though, is Harassment. Most people pronounce it as Har-ASS-ment; I prefer HAR-ass-ment. Especially when talking about sexual harassment, you don’t want to be making any references to her-ass-mint. Why she has a mint in her rectum, I don’t know. I’m sure her farts smell wonderful, though. Really important to get the em-PHA-sis on the correct sy-LLA-ble, am I right?
