word aversion

[aroraborealis]

Do you have any word aversions?

I have one: "pit" (but only when describing holes or hole-like areas (armpit, tree pit, etc, not, say, when describing the stones in fruit).

Oh, that's an interesting way to look at it. I'll claim that your inference is probably not what is meant by people who use that phrase because I think you're way smarter than the average, but it's still an interesting idea. Thanks!
