Speaker 1: Listen.
Speaker 2: I came across this on the weekend, my casual reading
Speaker 2: with my morning cup of coffee on Sunday, and I
Speaker 2: spat it out.
Speaker 1: I was flabbergasted. I was bamboozled.
Speaker 2: I was perplexed because the list of most hated words
Speaker 2: has been released and not hated words hated like little nicknames.
Speaker 1: What would you call these, Laura, you'd call them.
Speaker 3: Oh, don't know, don't throw that to me. But my
Speaker 3: words like no, there's shortened words, abbreviations like playing a game.
Speaker 3: You guys have a great vocab, keep doing, please go on. No.
Speaker 2: Doctor Rachel Taylor, she's a neuroscientist. She said, the science
Speaker 2: behind using shortened words and abbreviations can.
Speaker 1: Turn you off someone.
Speaker 2: She said, if someone uses a word or phrase that
Speaker 2: we find embarrassing as humans, we instinctively want to distance
Speaker 2: ourselves from them, hence the cringe, which can be seen
Speaker 2: as physically making ourselves smaller.
Speaker 3: What she's saying that a word in a conversation can
Speaker 3: make you feel physically like you.
Speaker 1: Need to run the other.
Speaker 3: But also I think that this is true. It's the
Speaker 3: same for bad grammar, Like if you read bad grammar
Speaker 3: in a text from someone who you're kind of dating.
Speaker 3: I remember this guy would always write defiantly instead of definitely,
Speaker 3: and I was like, I can't do this anymore.
Speaker 1: That's not grammar. He doesn't know the word.
Speaker 2: Apparently, these words can be so triggering for people. It
Speaker 2: can trigger a fight or flight response among humans.
Speaker 1: Are what are these words? It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell you my one that triggers a
Speaker 3: flight or flight or fight response, and that's yolo. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: cool for a while, but I think I feel like
Speaker 3: foremost the same.
Speaker 1: It's gone on my way.

Speaker 2: words in the world. So play light bingo as you're
Speaker 2: listening in the car now if you say any of
Speaker 2: these words. Let's go at number one. The most hated
Speaker 2: word in the world is a maze balls.
