Odd choices here. Paparazzi (paparazzo) is wrong, why exactly? What else am I supposed to call them when I see them around? There's a distinction between them and other photographers or photojournalists that the specific word makes clear. Fabulous is fine too when used correctly. Dude I'll even give a pass, it's used a lot here and I see no problem with it or its counterparts like bloke, buddy, or mate. Words like Bro or variants (Broseph, Broski etc.) are faggy.

Some words/phrases I dislike and wouldn't want to hear from a man:

-Preggers
-Literally (when used as an affirmation)
-"It goes without saying, that..." and then proceeding to say it.
-Afterparty. It's not an afterparty. It's a party. Another party. "Afterparty" is when you go home.
-Green (to describe an action or "going green")
-Facebooked
-Game plan
-It is what it is
-Pedophile (yes, I went there. If you know what it means and use it that way, you are in the minority.)


Trying not to be hypocritical, I need to grow out of these:

-"I know right?"
-Totally (interjected into sentences it doesn't belong in)
-Awesome (things that do not and should not inspire awe)
-Dude (sorry!)
