Least favorite letter of the alphabet?
Edited on Sun May-09-10 06:53 AM by BlueIris
I've never liked Y.

It's so...yucky. And out there. Like the crazy, drunken ex-friend you had to break up with because he couldn't embrace sobriety or a responsible lifestyle.

2. A. So full of itself.
First letter in asshole. A's so self-important it has two versions of itself in lower-case (the typed one and the written one with the big loop). Just because it comes at the beginning; since when was that a selling point? Harrumph!

:rofl:

5. To say nothing of it's identity crisis. .
I mean, is it a vowel or NOT? Get off the fence, man.

7. I'm also not a big fan of U.
It's ugly and it always has to be soooooo different. Uncouth, uncommon, Un. It's the Letter of No.

10. Yeah - I once had an argument with a teacher about Q
she said there were no words in which Q was not followed by U. I pointed out Qatar and she said it didn't count since it was a name. She got really pissed when I told her we weren't playing Scrabble and she did not set any rules when she made her blanket statement. I don't think it went over very well, hearing that from a fifth grader.

I had issues with that teacher the entire year.

13. C is useless. It usually doesn't do anything you can't accomplish with K or S.
Plus it's taking the place of several necessary but created letters, like Ch, Sh, Zh, !, two different Th sounds, and the interglottal stop (which is that choking thing Cockney people do in place of the double-T in words like "kettle" and "bottle"). Q is also pointless.
