I've used that word as well, and I mentally kick myself every time I do. Been trying to break myself of this for a while now with a good amount of success. Old habits. It's made more difficult by a healthy sense of irreverence, but I don't think there's any excuse for using it as an insult in public, which I've managed to not do for a long time now. Actually, I've never used it to insult someone, but rather to describe situations unfavorably. Close enough. The substitute word with the closest feel for me is 'Lame', which is what I'm rolling with. Yes I know...

Yeah, I've never used it to insult someone directly. I use it more to say that a situation or an idea is not the best. I'm kicking it too. Old habits indeed...
