"Can I get" is so rude! What's wrong with "May I have... please?"

I know!!!
DS says "please may I have" very nicely

Shortening names to near-acronyms, ie

Ri-Ri ;Rhianna
TomKat;Tom cruise & Katie Holmes

And the worst of all.....................SuBo

I don't mind TomKat, although it is a bit lame. Think SuBo is rather desperate. But for some reason Ri-Ri makes me want to strangle someone.

Spag Bog / Spag Bol instead of Spaghetti Bolognaise makes me feel nauseous.
Touch base

Moving forward

Thousands more but i feel i should stop...

Botty to describe your bum...WTF? DH says it to wind me up

Clematis sounds like someone is referring to their lady garden, rather than back garden.

Oops, there's another, lady garden.

Another one I hate is 'on trend' arghh

Obviously 'bang on trend' is even worse

I agree with panties and titties being particularly heinous - I recently heard someone on the radio describing a conversation where Bruce Forsyth talked about someone being in just their "bra and panties" and it made me want to rip my own ears off.

Also hate americanisms like
"can I get" - so rude - DH says this simply to wind me up.
"I'm good" or even worse "I'm all good" to mean "no thank you"
There are others but I can't think of them right now.

"ickle" and "hospicle" - I used to work with someone who said hospicle all the time. We worked in a hospital. WTAF?

I work with someone who will clarify something she's just said by saying "in the fact of" e.g. I don't think she's very articulate in the fact of she uses totally meaningless phrases. She also overuses quotation mark fingers - you know when people do " " with their fingers but she uses it in the wrong contexts. It is, quite frankly, a miracle she's still breathing.

rocking as in "Rocking the look" or "She rocked up wearing a dress"

I just dont get where it has come from.

I suspect Gok Wan

Baby Doctor. This drives me insane, it's so patronising.

Oh, and using terms like 'Little man' and 'little lady' to describe your DC. Ewwww.

my sister says 'per se' in every conversation drives me nuts...

Panties
Spag bol
Any business speak especially touch base

*being should be people

beakinthebeeswax, I too hate 'rocking the look' but weirdly am OK with 'She rocked up an hour late'.
