'When people say "nice" to acknowledge something you said': 25+ Words and phrases people would delete from the English language forever

Low key, there are literally so many words that technically we don't need to use. Like, you could say to your bae, who is genius but acting very toxic lately, that you and your bro are going to this amazing new gym where the vibes are so premium. "Ok, work," your very epic bae says to you. "Like, you got this."

We asked our Facebook audience what words they'd delete from the English language, and I put many of them in the deeply cringe paragraph above! Seems like people dislike modern slang, of course, as well as some phrases that are very overused (including one person who doesn't want to hear the word "very" anymore). There are just some words that grind your gears every time you hear them.

One person detailed how they always hear young people use the word "like" so frequently in conversations that they don't think they could be friends with them. Perhaps after a while, you just, like, stop hearing it. Or like, you join in with them, because like, sometimes it is fun to play around with the English language. It's free and fun! Let the "like" people have their favorite word.

Check out the answers below to see if you agree with our Facebook audience's excellent answers. Then, these people exposed their worst coworkers, like the dude who "left his tooth on the desk again."
