annoying phrases/words volume III
 

which?

Did you reaally just put awesome there?




awesome...

ha yes i did. its overuse by annoying twats on the train drives me mad.

I must admit that I am an overuser of that word....

Awesome is an awesome word. Pretty much as awesome as cowabunga, tubular, tubuloso, and mondo.

Least favorite phrase is 'keeping it simple.'

Hey wait those words aren't....oh I get it...

I say awesome probably 10 times a day. Maybe this means I should cut back. Last fortnight I got asked if I was.. american? by someone who clearly doesn't hear the OZ in my voice. I only have sympathetic american speach, if I'm talking to one, my vowels tend to change, it just happens and it's horrid..

"like" all the way

i hate it when people say "get yr leg outta my life"

overused for sure

^ I don't think I've ever heard that phrase....

'diz guy'


what the hell is that? i don't get why people say that

'Literally' gets on my nerves. I likely said that last time.

"real talk"

context: gurrrrl you know he ain't worth it, REAL TALK.

"No homo"

I am very guilty of saying "awesome" and "like" too much.

I hate "like"

I hate that out of all valley girl slang, this "like" bullshit is what stuck.

I especially hate it when opeople are trying to tell a story and instead of
"I told him no, and the he yelled at me, and so I left."
they say
"I was all like, "no" and he was like, all yelling, like, mad or something, and so I was all like, "I'm leaving."

Ha ha, "real talk." My friends from San Jose would say that, or the variant "street talk."

Anyway, I don't mind really any colloquial idioms or phrases all that much.

I never hear the OZ in yr typing.

'Back in the day' gives me the irrits. However, I do use it in an ironic (I hope) fashion.

Shit rhetorical questions. Rhetorical questions, yes. Shit ones, no.

This above is sort of floundering in an insight-less indignance, with neither pithy sarcasm nor righteous bile to anchor it to the shore of meaningful criticism.

I'll tell you what else pisses me off - that words like 'indignance' apparently qualify as obsolete. I'M USING IT NOW, ONLINE DICTIONARY, HOW CAN IT BE OBSOLETE IF I'M USING IT?

ooh, yeah. especially "back in MY day..."

Sure you are all talking about the attitude behind those words or phrases, and not their potential of being annoying per se?

Barmy

Like, i can't choose between like and my bad. Ya know like it's so cool to like use the word like.

I think you meant to add "my bad" somewhere in there, no?

Oh sorry,...my bad.

I went with "don't take this the wrong way, but" because it's always going to be taken the wrong way.

"Like" is godawful too. It pains me when I see prospective teachers in my field use it. Fucking hell, you're going to be an educator, develop a goddamn vocabulary.

fucking TRUTH

"no offense, buuuut..." YOU'RE ABOUT TO BE OFFENDED.

Sometimes I can become very bothered by "up-speak."
