As the title says what are the words or phrases that drive you crazy?
 
Rural
 
Deserve (nobody deserves or is owed anything)
Should, or should be (not a answer)
 
Man I could spiral this way down the drain really quick. :) Picking one: scabies. Scares the absolute hell out of me. I'll take care of and do most anything. Scabies is the answer

I was just looking this up:

Dr. Paul Thibodeau from Oberlin College surveyed 2,500 people and found that 18% of them hated the word "moist." He hypothesized that this strong reaction was down to three reasons: the way the word sounds, its association with bodily functions, and because it has become such a widely disliked word.


He discovered that the majority of people who hated the word "moist" were highly educated young women, and the reasoning in the latter two hypotheses were correct.

So while people were fine with the words "foist" and "rejoiced," they couldn't deal with the mental images that "moist" conjured.

"People who were averse to 'moist' also responded similarly to words such as 'phlegm,' and 'vomit,' leading us to believe that the disgust is related in part to the association with bodily functions," he explained on Gizmodo.
