To "vacay".

When speaking.

Now that you mention it, it is rather annoying.

 

[pontifex]

i've never heard anyone do that but i would find it annoying if i did

 

[meltdown75]

it's ok as long as it isn't used exclusively. once in a while is fine.

 

[Parasitic]

Never heard it like that.

 

[SZLiao214]

I hate it when people shorten the word What to wat when online.

I'm against word butchery of all types. That's especially egregious, I'll admit.

What he said.

The proper short form of "vacation" is "trip" in most situations.

Same.

 

[daveshel]

Especially stupid.

I think the first time I heard this was in the movie "Stranger Than Fiction" - it was amusing at the time but its annoying in real life.

 

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

it would if I'd ever heard it.

but people using the word "stuffs" as a noun annoys me more.

 

[Amused]

No. No, man.

Sh!t, no, man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' something like that, man.

Alright - it's unanimous. I'll send a memo.

 

[ebaycj]

You know what else is annoying?

People who use the fabricated word "Bastage" instead of "Bastard". That's just retarded.

but that came from the movie "Johnny Dangerously"

"You fargin' sneaky bastages!"

 

[rivan]

Ok, ok.

Who's the wise guy that just couldn't stand having a unanimous decision by ATOT, and voted for 'vacay'? Whoever it is, you're what's wrong with this country! Well, you... and taxes... and drive-through Krispy-Kremes.

Holiday.

It annoys me when people shorten thread titles by the one word that matters

Also, my Mom says "vacay." She would otherwise pronounce the whole word, "vacay-CHON" and she's self-conscious about it...
