Words that need to go away

Recommended Posts

yucca and zebra are great words.

cattywompus might be my favorite word.

Just looked it up because it reminded me of a word my wife likes to use: "wompy-jawed." And, wouldn't you know it, they both mean about the same thing (crooked, out of alignment).

She had said my hair was wompy-jawed the other night and I told her it was not a word, and that I had never heard of it. Of course, she quickly proved me wrong.

NO problem with that with one exception. Officer and a Gentlemen:

My word is two together:

This reminded me of last season at a Panthers game. I was at the stand buying a beer, and the guy asked for my ID. Instead of saying 'you're a gentleman and a scholar' for me handing it to him, he said 'you're an officer and a gentleman'.

I like the word 'enormity' but I hate how much people misuse it.

Irregardless and Resiliency do not need to exist either.

Irregardless is not a word.
