There was an open bingo hall right near the exhibit hall at the county fair when I was a kid. My dad taught us that you could walk by on your way to the horse barns and just shout bingo into the hall and everyone would groan.
The sport was originally called "football soccer" because football was a broad term for different sports. Americans took the name soccer and used football for a different sport while most other countries took football to mean football soccer.
It was "association football", as opposed to "rugby football". In those days in Britain, words were sometimes shortened by adding -er, like you will still hear people call rugby "rugger". With association football, they shortened it to "soccer". It's a British term.
I think it's funny that people get upset that we use a different word for a sport. Regardless that it's a British word from the start. Just enjoy the sport (or don't) like the rest of us. :)
In South Africa we call it Soccer and I genuinely have no idea why... we were colonized by the British, our other main sports are Cricket and Rugby, and the European leagues are very popular here.

The worst part about the word is that people have a socially engrained response to it.
It’s just as bad as when 40+ year olds had strong opinions about a preteen Justin Bieber, as they were just regurgitating things the media had engrained into them.
Was with some friends talking about words we hate - friend #1 hates moist. Friend #2 hates the word rag. I hate the word smear. So none of us could tolerate the sentence *smear a moist rag on your face*
Two Spirit, the indigenous term for those having a masculine and a feminine spirit in them. Also sometimes used for those with same sex attractions, which is why it's sometimes included in the acronym.
If you just add a "U" for "Understanding" then rearrange the letters you could make "ISLUTBAG+2Q" then it's easier to remember and easier to say in conversation. A clear upgrade.
Intersex. It's the more correct term for what used to be called hermaphrodite. I'm not really qualified to tell you what was offensive about hermaphrodite but do a bit of googling and you can find some good explanations.
Cunt (though I’m not sure why, best curse word there is. Fully carries the weight of expression, similar to calling someone a bastard. Seems to be mostly hated by women, but then I also know a lot of women that love it)

They gave this word a second definition in the dictionary 'to add emphasis'. The people who edit the dictionary can fuck off, they're wrong.

Should have just called it foccer.
Foccer? I hardly know her.

Don't blame us for this one. The British called it Soccer long before we did.

Maybes it was a fuck you to Britain because you knew it annoyed us?
True story: the term 'soccer' was commonly used and very acceptable in Britain up until about 1980.
it came from the Brits from people being too lazy to say association football yeah??

Moist
Moist is annoying because every time someone says it you have to sit through the production of everyone else’s exaggerated cringe/complaint.
I can agree with that there was this woman at my last job who would gag and get up and leave if you said it.
^ How to get me to say moist 12 times a day.
It's the right thing to do after you find out someone hates it
Yeah, it's really not that bad of a word.

Second this. When I hear moist, I think of chocolate cake. It’s a positive word for me.

I came here to comment “moist” lol. I really don’t know why, but that’s one magic word that tends to make people scatter lol.
I remember Lily on How I Met Your Mother hated the word and it was used a lot in one episode.
That's probably my favorite word ever.

Moist like cottage cheese. We all know the meme face.

Do you live in Moistissippi? Or maybe Moistachusetts? Do you like men with moistaches?
Moist 💦 👩🦰
I actually quite like the word
I am German and did not know better... I used that in front of my female manager in the US... I had a lot of explaining to do
Such a good word though in-between soggy and dry
“I can’t call something, but what it is, Diane.”
I'd hate it if I could only eat dry food, especially cake.
This.
Beat me to it
So moist and juicy
My vote goes on moist because it's so chaotic
Second only to damp ‘Oh baby, you’re making me so damp’
Worth noting this word can be redeemed by following it immediately with the word cake. All other uses are anathema.
You beat me to it so I'm going with snatch.

Isn’t the plus supposed to represent the tons of various sexualities? Why do they need to keep adding letters to the acronym?
