certain phrases which give me the irrational rage. Anyone else?

[NolansEpicDressSense]

'is your husband babysitting?' actually that's not an irrational one. It annoys the fuck out of me.

'I am eating my meal'. No you're not, you're eating your breakfast/dinner/tea/lunch/supper/whatever you want to call it, not your meal.

Referring to anything as a ' bad boy' no idea why it bothers me but it does.

I don't know why but I also get twitchy when I hear

"What are you doing for New Year's?"
"Did you do something nice on Valentine's?"

I feel like I need closure on the sentence. DAY!

Hearts and minds

Hardworking people

Tee instead of t-shirt

"The man is critical in hospital" - what, is he saying: "Ooh, I don't like those curtains!"

'impact' used as a verb

'Alpha male'

'To hell and back'

'I don't want to interfere....' Well bloody don't, then.

'MILF'

Dh used to think it was toilet system, instead of cistern, until I scathingly put him right gently corrected him.

'I was incandescent with rage'

er really?

"Ooooh, that's very moreish."

It's a bloody Victoria sponge, not a Spanish castle.

Please don't point out that the word is Moorish. I know. I know.

It's just the word moreish in conversation sounds so wrong to me.

When did it become a key word for middle aged cake eaters?

When did it become a word at all?

My friend pronounces tzatziki as 'tarzeekee' and ciabatta as 'seeabatta' she drops it into the conversation after someone has pronounced it correctly as if to let them know she knows better.

These also grate.

Suck it up buttercup
Good to go
Lol - actual grown ups using the bloody word lol and I bet they aren't laughing at all more of a titter. Grow up!
Happy Days
OMG!
The bigger picture

Egregious. Surely the most pretentious word ever invented.

Train station. It's a bloody RAILWAY station everyone. We haven't been colonised by the United States yet.

Oh there are so many!
Pacific instead of specific
Bokkle, likkle and hospikal
Babes
Oh my days
Just a heads up, blue sky thinking, let's park that idea - in fact any corporate speak drives me mad. We have one person attend meetings and the rest of us play buzzword bingo or alternatively see how many wank catchphrases we can use in the meeting. The winner gets a bar of chocolate!

...and 'would of' instead of 'would have' - MIL (bless her) uses it all the time and it drives me mad. It doesn't even make sense.

Speaking of corporate BS...any Drop The Dead Donkey fans on here?

Speaking of corporate BS...any Drop The Dead Donkey fans on here?

Ah yes, I love Drop the Dead Donkey. We had a manager who was rather like Gus, only less amusing. We reckoned that he had swallowed the book on "management speak" - my "favourite" that he often used to come out with was "Don't shoot the goose that lays the golden eggs". Tin eggs, more like. Certainly not bloody gold!

...and as for all the corporate bollocks -speak, it really needs a cartoonist. Pushing the envelope? Blue-sky thinking? Thinking out of the box? I'm giggling just mulling over the images that come to mind. Can someone oblige?

To die for
Good times
Happy days
Starting a sentence with so
The use of the word 'well' i.e. it was well good

Oh I love these threads. I've said it before, we need a rant corner topic. If pedants can have one.....? Just a thought MNHQ..

I have so many I could categorise them but top of my list at the moment:
Where you to?
(What? You mean where are you?)
Where's that to?
(As in where is that?)
Where did you get that to?
(Where did you get that FROM? FFS)

STOP ADDING "TO" TO EVERY SENTENCE THAT HAS "WHERE" IN IT!! Arrrrgh!!

I was like " yes, let's do that", but then he was like "no let's not", and then when I told my friend, she was like "LTB"

NO. NO-ONE WAS 'LIKE' ANYTHING! YOU SAID SOMETHING, HE ANSWERED AND THEN YOUR FRIEND SAID SOMETHING! AAARGH..!

Sorry, had to get that one off my chest...

Green shoots that's another one.

Also airplane not aeroplane and when people use yourself and not you.

...bliss.

Oh and 'kiddies' No idea why but it pounds really creepy to me.
