Any and all use of the word "acclimate" when not referring to something remotely scientific... It's one of those psuedo-intellectual words that dumb people learn and say to try and sound as if they weren't. Drives me up the fucking wall.

Carpe Diem... Go *beep* yourself if you say it.

Hella... See above.
