Ok, I'm done now.

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

Eire.

fairycake123 · 07/12/2010 19:33

I think "So," is worse, personally.

pastaplease · 07/12/2010 19:33

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

Xmas Grin Trillian YANBU.

Numberfour thank goodness I'm not the only weirdo!

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....

"That's the way to miss a good thread!"

I agree very strongly with that
