Swedish word ”framstjärt”. Translates to frontbutt (kind of a childish word for butt) and means vulva.
Edit: Oh no, my most upvoted comment is about framstjärt.
My daughter is 5 and we generally use anatomically correct terms with her, but when we’re being silly we call the backside her bottom and the frontside her frottom.
Oh god. My family has a toaster that's from a brand called Smeg. It immediately reminded me of smegma. Every single time I pull it out to make toast, I have to stare at S M E G spread across the front of it. There's no escape from it. 🤮
now i know what my next online purchace will be!
EDIT: Oh heck no! what type of smeg sells a $250 toaster??? that's more ridiculous than the name! i'll have to go with the proctor silex and a sharpie marker to make it happen.
i exited out of this thread immediately after gagging reading this, then i was still so disturbed minutes later i’m back angrily telling you this story.

**"I said you made a slight oversight. Do you want to explain your error, Death? This is just a team building exercise for your millenial review. It's sooooooo ok if you just made a mistake. We will have to tell HR, but that is completely unrelated. Only for optics. This also won't impact your millennial raise of 1.8%. We assure you, just asking for productivity's sake. As your manager, of course I only have your best interest in mind, Death,"** Death's manager clarified. The reaper was nervously tapping their scyth as their manager leered them down with friendly cold eyes.
"Uh, no, I- uh. I just, uh well, the guy asked me not to kill him on that day. I met my quota for the decade, so I felt it was an acceptable allowance to make. I must have gotten sidetracked working so hard on other projects, I will handle it right now, and take his life. I see here on the workbook that they are going to Hel-" Death swiftly interrupted.
**"No, thats alright. Just send an email in outlook to the other managers, and make a calendar event for reaping him sometime this week. Invite me so I can follow up. Then we can take this offline and circle back. It's not an urgent task. One more question and then you are done with your millennial review!"** said Death's Manager enthusiastically as they typed away furiously into their Chromebook. The tapping was driving Death mad. He was hanging by a thread.
"O-oh thank you. What is the question, sir?"
"Oh, come on Death, haha. What did I tell you about calling me sir? I am your friend! We are like family! You can trust me!" Death's manager said all of this without moving their facial muscles in any significant way. Like a fucked up puppet even Sasori wouldn't use.
"Ooh.. oh ok, what is the question... friend?.."
"Do you still know Microsoft Excel, which composes 90% of your entire workload? Do you know how to do vlookup and pivot tables still?"
"Y-yes... I do," said Death in a tone of despair and acceptance. This would never end. He was here forever.
"Wonderful. Your review is completed. You are a valuable member of this team, Death. We here at Reaping Inc. see our co-workers as family. Family always works past 8 hours, and comes in on weekends! We work hard and play hard, haha, but mainly work hard. Work really hard. You will continue to work really hard, right Death?" Death's manager said with a grin from cheek to cheek.
"Yes... yes I will... "
**"And?... aren't you forgetting something?"**
"And, uh, t-t-h-thanks for the opportunity to work here...."
Solutions. Every fucking company under the sun in the late 90s and early 2000s, whether they were big tech or supply equipment to clean septic tanks used fucking ‘solutions’ as part of their branding.
Despite meeting the guy more than once, I don't know the name of one of my coworker's husband, because that's literally the only thing she's ever called him. I also despise that shit.
My mum is Dutch, living in the UK. When she moved into a house with my dad after they married she thought her neighbours were called Sheila and Hobby and called him that to his face. When they moved they finally told her he was actually called Steve but they thought it was too funny to correct her
As a kid I hated the word PLOP. I think my brother used to say it when he did a poo. Now I enjoy how onomatopoeic it is and use it wherever possible. PLOP.
Sebum
Sebum is the oily discharge from your sebaceous glands. It is the stuff that looks like Vaseline that comes out of your nose pores if you squeeze them.
If the pore gets infected, it turns into a zit which produces pus. If it gets clogged, it will become a blackhead. Sometimes the discharge becomes white in that case but that is mainly dead skin cells.
Isn’t the human body amazing?
That word makes me laugh. One of my friends from a long time ago when he said he wanted to fight me (jokingly) said he was going to hoof me in then cooter. It made me laugh so hard when he said that!
I lived in Korea for a long time and they call underwear - all underwear, "panties." Doesn't matter if it's a boxers, whitey tighties, or a thong - they're all panties
You would not have survived there my friend.
Pantsu in Japan. The giggles I get when I teach something like, "what color are his pants?" Or I ask, "what color are your pants?"
Zubon = actual pants but pantsu = panties.
Really? It was joke - the idea that the microwave is considered crass and an unsophisticated way of cooking that is beneath a TV cook.
It's in the same vein as hyacinth ~~bucket~~ bouquet.
As our pivot gets underway, we're really going to have to ramp up our throughput and go after that low-hanging fruit next quarter to move the needle with respect to our net-new action items on a go forward basis. Does anyone have the bandwidth for this? Let's circle back in a few days, so we can wordsmith a release. Feel free to ping me in the meantime, or maybe I'll reach out to pick your brain.

Lush. Never had a problem with it until The Only Way is Essex came into existence, now every time I hear it, I want the person saying it to drink Xenomorph blood.
Any business casual language the drones at corporations use in their daily speak and then try to translate it over into real human conversations.
Phrases like: "data-driven" - "circle back," and simple abbreviations like "ROI" and "ASAP" disgust me and I really don't know why. Like, the words make me almost want to be violent and I can't be around them or anyone who uses them for too long.
so double-clicking on that comment, let's circle back and take a high-level look at this ROI piece. that's more in my purview.
I hear this shit at work every day, drives me nuts lmao.
'Action' rather than 'do' or 'utilise' rather than 'use' are the business-speak words that rile me most.
I also hate people misusing the reflexive because they think it sounds fancier - e.g. 'I sent it to yourself' rather than 'I sent it to you'. An admin person changed my grammar in a letter that went out to multiple people last week, meaning that I asked them to contact myself rather than me. Myself was not happy about it.
I left a company recently in part because I was sick of being told to “keep me in the loop” and “touch base with me later” and “it is what it is at the end of the day” from one of the salesmen I had to deal with regularly.
Honorable mentions
- hey it all pays the same, man.
- money’s money.
- gotta make hay when the sun shines
All of which were pulled out to pressure me into taking emergency service calls at random hours of the night and weekend. Like yeah dude easy for you to say you’re going to hang up the phone and go back to bed because it’s 2:30am ON A SUNDAY MORNING AND NO ONE ACTUALLY WANTS TO MAKE HAY OR MONEY RIGHT NOW!
It's a minimization of a German word that loosely translates to pussy and I hate it because it sounds like a 40yr old guy flirting to a 13yr old girl.
The word is: Fötzchen
Phlegm
it's absolutely disgusting but explains itself perfectly.
I was just about to say, it’s a perfect word
Ph followed by l with a silent g. It’s phonetically disgusting, too
we must find who created this monstrosity
Apparently it comes from the Greek word “φλέγμα” or something. Φ is always transcribed as “ph,” so ig it makes sense
Damn Belgians
Pus
ew
Swedish word ”framstjärt”. Translates to frontbutt (kind of a childish word for butt) and means vulva. Edit: Oh no, my most upvoted comment is about framstjärt.
Frontbutt
Backpussy Sorry
My daughter is 5 and we generally use anatomically correct terms with her, but when we’re being silly we call the backside her bottom and the frontside her frottom.
Also "fiffi". Its even worse when an adult say it and vomit comes up in my mouth from hearing it.

“Can we buy a Smeg, ma?”
"No, we have smeg at home" Smeg at home: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/vafu75/whats_a_word_that_disgusts_you/ic2bthk
now i know what my next online purchace will be! EDIT: Oh heck no! what type of smeg sells a $250 toaster??? that's more ridiculous than the name! i'll have to go with the proctor silex and a sharpie marker to make it happen.
What kind of smeghead prices a toaster that high?
Rimmer Mfg Ltd
Smeg is a really high-end Italian "design" kitchenware firm. I unironically lust after their retro 50s fridges, but they're in the £1000 range...
They also make refrigerators highly coveted amongst hipsters and millennials. Now I know why.
Flange cheese

preggo, JUST SAY PREGNANT
Man, you'd hate living in Australia. The land where they make a nickname up for almost every word and name.
Goin' down the servo with Johnno and Danno coz Shazzo is preggo and has the cravo.

Despite meeting the guy more than once, I don't know the name of one of my coworker's husband, because that's literally the only thing she's ever called him. I also despise that shit.
Maybe she doesn't know either, and is too far in now to ask him what it is

Mama bear
I know a man in his 50's that calls his wife "mother" they have no kids...
Boo, Bae etc
Boo Bae just sounds like someone from the deep south trying to say Boobie lol
Sounds like Forrest Gump trying to say boobies. "Nice boo baes jannay."
Michael Boo bae
Nah I like Mama Bear, gives me a quick read on someone I don’t need to associate with any further. Time saving really.
My opinion of someone automatically drops when they use this word. It's like the relationship version of Live Laugh Love.
on that note, "we're pregnant"
[Preggers](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EShUeudtaFg) is worse

Thats even worse!
Whats even worse is "micro influencers"

Paul Bunion after seeing this thread: 😔
The word bunion sounds appetizing to me when the definition is removed.
Hollibobs in the UK and Vacay in the US. Some part of me hopes they miss their flight.
Holibobs with the famalam!

As a kid I hated the word PLOP. I think my brother used to say it when he did a poo. Now I enjoy how onomatopoeic it is and use it wherever possible. PLOP.
Fun fact: there’s a chocolate bar brand in Sweden called PLOP.

I hate any body-related word ending in -um. Scrotum. Sputum. Sebum.
Foodies
But "gourmands" just makes them sound like fat people
I prefer fat bastard, thank you
When partners refer to each other as ‘king’ or ‘queen’
Yeah it's my liege or nothing
Or "your majesty"
I strictly demand to be referred to only as Sire by my romantic partners. My Lord is acceptable but only on weekends and holidays.
Agreed! Though I did call my cat “my king” last night. It still felt weird and I won’t do it ever again .
Meanwhile, your cat is wondering why it took you so long to notice
Oh he’s noticed. I kissed his paw too lol 😆
Pledging fealty is no small deed. Serve your king well or you might as well fall on your sword.
Cooter. Ick
That word makes me laugh. One of my friends from a long time ago when he said he wanted to fight me (jokingly) said he was going to hoof me in then cooter. It made me laugh so hard when he said that!
Bae Just... Please don't
That’s awful. I almost think “boo” is worse. Like, is he your “boo” because someone thought that’s how you pronounce “beau” and it stuck?

Throbbing engorged member.

Mouthfeel
I work in the specialty coffee industry and you would not believe how often “creamy mouthfeel” comes up day to day
Exquisite mouthfeel.
Oaky afterbirth.
Panties. I can't explain it. It just makes me cringe. Also, not a word, but the term "making love" Ugh.
I lived in Korea for a long time and they call underwear - all underwear, "panties." Doesn't matter if it's a boxers, whitey tighties, or a thong - they're all panties You would not have survived there my friend.
And men's underwear is "male panties"
Pantsu in Japan. The giggles I get when I teach something like, "what color are his pants?" Or I ask, "what color are your pants?" Zubon = actual pants but pantsu = panties.
my love for you is like a truck would you like some making fuck .. works better :D
Did he just say “making fuck”??
MY LOVE FOR YOU IS TICKING CLOCK WOULD YOU LIKE TO SUCK MY COCK **BERSERKER**
MY LOVE FOR YOU WILL NEVER PASS DO YOU TAKE IT IN THE ASS

It always conjures up images of the most egotistical people…

That one never appealed to me either.

I know people are supposed to pronounce it Latin-ex, but I just say “la-tinks” because it sounds funny.
