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

In Norwegian the word I’m really getting tired of hearing is “serr” or as us grown ups say “seriously.” Gen Z says it constantly & repeatedly.

In American slang the word I’m getting very tired of hearing is “like.” I was told in college to stop using it as it made me some dumb when I’m not.

Another word I’m sick of hearing being used is “as if” making the adult talking to a child doubt what they’re saying. Their tone goes up because of ? & you hear it. No thanks!

What bores you?

People that are only out to hurt others. Either by saying unfiltered mean things or by forcing me to isolate from them. This recently happened & I had to listen to Spotify on my headphones in another room.

I feel bored by mean behavior because it tends to be basic & under the mining of others. By saying something that hurts but claiming someone else said it.

That’s just elementary Watson. Why be that childish? That’s what bores me & baffles me. Especially if it’s someone I once admired that does it?

Malicious behavior only serves the bully & not the recipient. Has anyone ever insulted you by saying someone else said it?

What is your favorite drink?

I drink single cappuccino’s all day but say if I’m watching Eurovision or something I drink Bruichladdich whiskey neat.

My first love is coffee however & whiskey is my 2nd. Sorry, dealing with a sick dog. Who’s not doing too hot at the moment.

We went to Scotland in 2016 & loved it! Bruichladdich is a hybrid distillery on Islay, an island in Scotland. I highly recommend this place, their cask tastings are awesome.

But back to coffee, my first love was that I learned how to drink properly in Seattle when I lived there. The coffee scene there is amazing.
