I’d Ban…


If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why?

Like, ya know… words are literally important, and I can’t like think of any word that I’d literally permanently ban, because all of them are like, totally different and have like different meanings and stuff or something.

Every word is important, even the ones we hate, and the ones that drive us absolutely up the wall. That’s what the First Amendment to the Constitution is all about. It doesn’t protect the speech we like, it protects the speech we hate. The speech that absolutely makes our skin crawl. And while there are words I abhor, and wish people wouldn’t use, I realize I use some words that others would wish didn’t exist.

In the end, all words have meaning, have a connotation or express a thought. All words help to add clarification to thoughts, ideas, feelings. Therefore, they are all important.

That doesn’t mean I can’t hope to never hear some of them though. Or something.
