I don't hate this word on principle. Rather, I hate this word when it is abused by my college educated boss when he really means "curt." As in, "there is no need to be all curtsy with me."
I truly hate this word. I think it's just used anymore for anything we have deemed unpleasant. Which is fine, but the creativity in searching for better vocab has obviously dwindled.

Nasty is the word that I said I truly hated. I'm brand new to Wordie so I'm trying to teach myself how to use it!
