In the context of "Wow!", the word "snap".
Or butchering a regular word so that it ends in "izzy".  Like "in the hizzy".  Ugh.

FML  short for "F**k my Life"

I hate it when people use this.  It mostly happens on Facebook and I usually remove them from my news feed if it's used more than once.  What a negative thing to say.

I'm beginning to get sick of "Alternative" when applied to music. It's become a way too blanketed term.................

Impact as a verb.   Hatred Hatred Hatred

Pretty much all slang, until the point when it becomes forgotten and uncool and can be reclaimed by thinking people.

Funny thing, my nickname was "Snap" when I was little. I have no idea why my dad called me that but that was back before he turned out to be an alcoholic loser who decided to leave my mom and I for his own definition of a greener pasture.....

Triumph.
It used to make me think 'motorcycle', but now it just makes me think of an uncouth, unfunny hand puppet, and a deliberately inane Lou Reed Song.

So got swag = probably got herpes.  Allright then.

Fail is one of those words the internet has made me hate, especially if somebody is saying something is "full of fail" or "you fail at (blank)." 

Frankly, I'm a very anti-memme/internet slang person anyway.  I gave one of my co-workers a lecture when she said "L-O-L" outloud once.

Solution

This word has fallen into the world of corporate speak.  "We have the perfect staffing solution for your needs". 
Some companies even use it in their names.  "Joe Blow Staffing Solutions".

Whenever I hear the word "solution" I always think of the chemical use: "a homogeneous mixture composed of only one phase."

I don't know about words but I hate when somebody says "that" twice in a sentence and it actually counts as proper grammar.

From Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "A Study in Scarlet"

"Excuse my rudeness. You broke the thread of my thoughts; but perhaps it is as well. So you actually were not able to see that that man was a sergeant of Marines?"

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
