Mountie boy, was that your attempt at humour? If so, carry on being a nitwit and leave the wit to the British.

Anyways, I voted other. I hear a thousand phrases that piss me off to no end. "At least you've got your health" is a very good one. I hate it because I don't have my health. It doesn't work everywhere.

'Someone got out of bed on the wrong side this morning'

But I have to go for 'cheer up, it may never happen'.

"Somebody's got a case of the Monday's!"

'Turn that frown upsid...' no no no, I can't even bring myself to type the fucker.

I know! Our group of parents are always like that... Then you're forced to say "good" because if it really wasn't good then they'd ask why and you're too lazy to tell them why. You should come to rideau with me tomorrow, I'm applying for some jobs

What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

Wrong. What doesn't kill you could hurt you really bad.

i do.

when someone says "turn that frown upside down" the simply solution is to attempt to apply this phrase to said person's face with yr hands and a vice grip

"Nawmsayin'?"

'(gasp, puff, pant) That hill gets steeper every day'.

Said by people coming into our shop/centre every day. So it's probably not one that annoys many people, but it annoys me. And, just in case you're wondering about freak subsidence/uplift phenomena in the Oxton area of Wirral, the hill does not get steeper every day.

Those people need to die. I hope everyone who's ever sat in a pub on their own reading has felt this pain. I used to do it a lot, and it annoyed the fuck out of me. The problem is that these people are generally trying to be friendly... but are clearly too inept to ask something more leading, like, "Whatcha reading there skip?". That's nice. That's a good conversation opener. "Cheer up, it might never happen" "Ironically, I would cheer up if 'it' did happen. 'It' being your immediate bloody and painful death, cunt". Of course what I actually say is, "I look that bad do I? I must not be drinking enough", take a long draw on my drink and look at the door asif I'm waiting for someone.

You non-English have no idea of the pain we go through because we're such pathologically socially inept people.

I am told that I do not have an "approachable" demeanor in public, so people don't usually talk to me in places of congregation. For the most part I am OK with this.

hat de nd ov de dai.

It's estimated that 'at the end of the day', 'over the moon', 'gutted', 'er' and 'like' make up 98.7% of the average Premiership footballer's vocabulary. Back in the old days, 'sick as a parrot' constituted 47% on its own, but that particular phrase has fallen from use.

Although it's true that "everything happens for a reason," it sure leaves a bad taste in your mouth when the person who's usually telling you this is generally clueless and most likely, only offering words by rote that are intended to somehow console you.

Yes, any in the above trio usually induce a wince, if not a cringe.

I like that one. Cause it is true.

'Theses things are sent to try us'.

'And try us they certainly do'. Call-and-response phrases are the very worst.

'Seriously, yr virgin?'

it will eventually nefeli. at least thats what i tell myself when i cant sleep or whatever.
