I hate any word that is descriminatory in ANY way, regardless of how it's being used.

The word "like," even if it's being used properly. The whole MTV phenomenon has taken a perfectly good word and made it nearly impossible to stomach. Actually, it has done that with just about any slang word that has ever existed.

Another thing I can't stand is when people say 'one' instead of 'a person' or 'someone.' My former English teacher was into journalism and she beat the journalism rules into our heads.
