AIBU to have an irrational hatred towards anybody that says...

[VairpreshusFB]

Go figure??

does my fuckin nut in, go figure what? twunts!!!

But, AIBU?

UADNBU!

Thankyou

When people say "you know" at the end of every sentence. Drives me mad.

lifechanger round here they say 'I wanna go a toilet' which is even worse!
They also say 'pourin a rain' arrrgggghhh

Action.

"Send the paperwork over to xxx and they will action it."

Used all the time at work. Drives me insane, it doesn't make sense!

Going forward or any management speak come to that.
Like and whatevs!! All American/Aussie twaddle!!

Boyf is my most hated word of all time. Followed by Hubby, Hunny and LOL.

lol @ INeverFinishAnythi

bite me (and clean your sunglasses)

Anyone mentioed diarize yet?

Bloody hell. This thread has made me aggressive. So many punchworthy phrases in one place
Hunny or hun.
"he text me" WHAT??? WHAT????!
The "literally" thing. "I was literally gobsmacked". Really?

What's diarize?

diarize = American for "put in your diary".
It annoys me marginally less than "burglarise" - FFS, the verb is burgle, the perpetrator is a burglar because he has burgled your effing house, not effing burglarised it - ARRRGGGHHH!!

'tis. Or methinks. We are not in Rentaghost here.

Pro-active.

As opposed to pro-passive.

Or anti-active."

Wait, proactive isn't a saying, it's a word in the dictionary, it's opposed to reactive.

proactive (prəʊˈæktɪv)

? adj

1. tending to initiate change rather than reacting to events

but if that's your opinion then ok.

My personal hates are more to do with grammar and spelling than sayings.
People may use words incorrectly or create new words, but no excuse for spelling or grammar errors.
Personally english is my weakest 'subject' as it were, but even I can use 'their' 'they're' and 'there' correctly.

Also use of apostrophes where they aren't needed or possibly worse, the lack of apostrophes where they are needed.

Tongue, meet cheek

I've got new sunglasses now I'll have you know from Asda

I love:
'so I turned round and said'
'and then 'he turned round and said'
'so I turned round to him and said....'

Just creates a delightfully comical image of people like spinning tops. The faster they spin the more ferocious the argument.

Don't much care for 'Can I get' when people are asking for something, as in 'Can I get a large coke' in MacDonalds. Because unless they are planning to vault the counter and help themselves, no they can't!

"Do you get me?"

OrmIrian I always picture lots of people turning round to face the camera with some devastating putdown, like they used to in the opening titles of Dallas, or was it Dynasty?

I hate methinks.

And gobsmacked.

WTF is amaze balls? What does it even mean?

Manshape!

I really hate
One Stop Shop
and
Toolkit - when describing a pile of paper with stuff written on it which is most certainly NOT a toolkit.

BIL, just before they emigrated, recently told me that he was going to be very busy working at his new job, which meant that SIL was "literally going to have to be the man of the house" in his place and make all the major decisions on her own when they got to the new country. She would be the one house hunting and sorting out all the financial things etc and so he would "get to see what it was like to be in the wife's role for that sort of thing for a change."

I went a bit stabby-faced at him and not just because of the word literally.

I also hate "thanking you" and "anything.com" and anybody calling me "chick." There is a 50 something man at work who says 'Fan-cue" like a two year old girl. He puts on a baby voice and "fan-cues" away at everyone while I wonder if one day I might kill him with a tray.
