I loathe the word incentivize. But I write secondary world fantasy, so I can't think of any reason why I'd ever need to use it in a story.
Overall, I'd say this is how I feel too. I don't like repeating words too quickly, and some words just don't conjure the feel or connotation I want. But the dislike tends to be situational.
I like that! I'm going to work horngry into my vocabulary!
Yeah, I don't hate on words. That said, I may replace certain words in a sentence or paragraph if it doesn't flow the way I like. But that's more of a dislike for the sound of the word than a hatred for the word itself.
