to detest people who say ridiculous things like "chillax" ?

[sparkle1977]

Urgh, just typing it makes me shudder.....

chill out or relax are fine but don't mix them for heavens sakes, trying to be all young and hip.....gag

Only if they rock up to places as well.

I don't think young, hip people say 'chillax'

ds (7) says it. Must have caught it from school. I think it's quite cute.

Irritating from adults, though.

sparkle1977

you sound a bit vexed

just chillax

Allow it.

'rock up' is quite old school London. My old cockney uncle will talk about the time he rocked up to the Camden Palais and the Kray twins had nicked his reserved table

swparkle - you are my target audience I only say it to annoy

lol!@tethersend.

We've had this conversation before, haven't we?
Sorry - innit, blud?

I don't think cool and young trendies say chillax. If I said chillax to dd she would look at me like this

It is the kind of think that desperately uncool middle managers would say.

one thing that kids do say which drives me to drink - 'my bad' when they have made a mistake.

Yes YES RD.

Touch, touch.

'My bad' used to be exclusively American. Weird how I now hear 10 yr old squirts from Wembley saying it on the bus .

I work with young people and like to hear their banter (although some of it is exceedingly, shall we say, raw).

chillax is not young and hip. it is definitly just middle aged wannabe youngsters that say it.

Things that the yoof say that irritate me till my eyeballs bleed are "blud" "sick" "'llow it" "krunge"

In fact my irritation at the yoof talk is what tells me beyond any reasonable doubt, I am old!

cushty

just go with it

I LOVE it when you hear prep school kids from Epsom talking like extras from the Wire. It's hilarious.

The other day my new boss came to tell me he needed a project done. (uncharacteristically for me) I was able to tell him I had already finished it.

He "fist bumped" me and said "Preesh!"

I gave home a very blank look and after a moment said "Er. What?"

"Preesh! I appreciate you! Good job, you know...Preesh."

I don't know where they get these people.my last boss answered everything with "Fo Sho" or "Not Fo Sho". And the phrase had absolutely nothing to do with ethnicity, let I anger the PC brigade.

these people are beneath contempt. Each and every one of them.
Up there with dickheads who say guesstimate or random. "Whacky" pricks one and all.

I hate it when people say peeps.
What sort of word is that and how hard is to type People?

I've seen 'a peep', referred to recently.
It makes my blood boil.

Preesh? that is a truly wankeresque thing to say.

jasonthunderpants - yes am feeling a teensy bit on the vexed side today as it goes!

oh yes "my bad", thats another truely vile one.

I find people "rocking up to places" mildly amusing because its so silly!!

There are many more just can't recall them right now.

op you are amiserable nob

Take a chill pill

Your boss sounds hilarious bananapudding! I'd love it if my boss did that!

The thing that winds me up the most is when there are people who were in my year at school that write like this on their Facebook updates all the time! But they are all about 28 now?? I'm sure there should be a cut off age for all this yoof speak! (or maybe that just shows what kind of school I went to!)

oh yes and people (mainly on facebook) calling friends "legends" for doing something mildly amusing ?? Cannot understand all the "he's a total legend" stuff for the life of me.

It's knob. Not nob. Unless you mean a member of the aristocracy; in which case, apologies.
