The word I hate and it is used on my campus is "fail".

If you got back a bad midterm because you didn't prepare for the exam, got wasted on a Sunday and missed your exam on Monday, cheated on an exam and got caught, dumped your mate and their doing better without you, got a DUI and a speeding ticket last Tuesday, got laid a week ago and you just discovered you have a STD, went to your job drunk and got fired... or did some other stupid thing that got you in a rut, DOESN'T MEAN EMPHASIS THE FACT YOU SCREWED UP!!

I am getting the impression that the people that use this word either a) wants someone to feel bad for them b) wants a pat on the head like they did something so great c) desperate for attention or d) is replacing another f-word I know.

Either way, when I hear someone scream "fail" I think, "Shall I post up neon lights with the word "fail" over you, so all of us can acknowledge your failure."
