Comfortability has taken the top spot away from gifting as my least favorite non-word. It's just comfort, folks! Comfort is the word you want! Seeing this mostly in sports talk, really hoping it doesn't break containment from there.
There is a whole class of words that start as a noun, get turned into an adjective via a suffix, then get turned back into a noun via a second suffix. For example, tact > tactful > tactfulness. It's annoying.
$10 to anyone who finds me a comfortability or gifting in the wild that adds any value over comfort or giving.
