I blame the aussies and kiwis I know for my usage of that word. They use it so damn much.

Never ever move to the UK.  You'll be telling an awful lot of women not to use it.  And you won't like their responses.

How can you not like a word with such utility that it can both describe my favourite thing and the thing (or person) I hate the most ?

I've never understood the hate for Chris Collinsworth.  There I said it.  angel

Yeah, me either. He's just another color guy to me, nothing noteworthy about him in any way, really.

I think my favorite example of the use of the word in question happened on an early episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Cheryl's aunt dies, her family comes to visit, and Larry David say's he'll take care of submitting the obituary. Well, instead of calling her a "beloved aunt" in the obit, the paper makes an error and calls her a beloved... well, you know. Hilarity ensues.

I tried to find the Ray Liotta use of the word from I think Goodfellas.  One of his movies anyway.  No luck.

"during the meeting she was a bit of a...."

My understanding is the Bob Costas auto-correct is a result of Margie's dislike for him. So i would imagine she is the one you need to make your case to.

I had half of the game on mute and went to bed at the start of the 4th quarter, so he didn't bother me that much.

My hope is to lay the foundation for my argument here, then plead my case at the Challenge...hopefully that will be the only plea/case at the Challenge.

This. And there's a reason why all the best expletives have hard "K" sounds. I only use that word to describe a *person;* sometimes, myself.

Are you suggesting that we use a soft "c" when calling our friends Collinsworths? Because that could be fun. "What's up, ya sunt?"

Not to worry, guys. I like my food to have taste, my beer to be cold, my baseball to be played in more than one dimension, and my headlights to work. I am generally a fan of the area's taste in "K"ars, however. cheeky

Oh wow! vajajay = vajajay? That's retarded <---which is politically incorrect. Maybe retarded could be Collinsworth. Either is fitting.

As a staunch opponent of the R word(it's an outdated medical term) i'm cool with making it autocorrect to Collinsworth.  I hate that guy and everyone else should too

Idiot and moron were also medical terms for the same condition and I find particular irony in the fact that nobody has a problem with those.

 

"Dork" also means tallywhacker, schlong...
