Ok, I'm done now.

I agree, I also find well, guess, oh, ah annoying. Especially if I do it.

Eire.

I think "So," is worse, personally.

pastaplease · 07/12/2010 19:33

Or "So...", e.g. "So, I was in the supermarket..." Ugh.

I'm so with you about people who don't tell you what their thread is about in the thread title.

That's the way to miss a good thread!

I only clicked on I'm So Angry the other day because it KEPT coming up and t'was a great thread about her daughter being ousted as Cinderella.

Alternatively you get threads like this....
