To have an irrational rage that makes me want to gag whoever says...

[AlbaGuBrath]

"Hell to the no"

"Totes"

"Amazeballs"

(the last two combined)

"Chillax"

"My bad"

"Cray cray"

Surely nobody over the age of 15 should use these words in a serious context (even in a joking context if I'm totally honest)

I have this week heard them all used at work by professional, otherwise intelligent people. Please don't tell me it's me that wants to stuff the nearest bit of junk mail into their pie hold every time they speak like this.

blates? Why, just why. What is the need?

You need to calm down. There are important things you could be stressed about

Life's too short to use full words.

It's acceptable I'd trying to annoy teens but that's the only time. Dh says my bad and now so does our 6yo. I hate it. I hated it when I was 19 and at 32 I still hate it.

Ooooh cray, cray. Did you not know? me either it's crazy

I've never heard this. It just made my stomach turn over.

I do so 'totes' all the time though

Still trying to get my head round "my bad", I've decided it's because I've never actually heard it said. What a weird saying.

Ok so conversation this week at work:-

Me: "How was your night out with

Colleague: It was totes amazeballs is like cray cray when she get's going.

Me:

It's annoying because people substitute 'sorry' for 'my bad' when they make a mistake. Grrrrrr.

Alba, how do you feel when people say in person 'hashtag cray craaaaay!'

Jesus, I'm going to move to the laptop. This autocorrect is doing my argument no favours nothing to do with the wine

wanttosqueezeyou Off, just get off the thread

I am with you on the hashtags my middle aged teacher cousin has got so bad at this on fb (I know) that I had to just delete her I niw refer to her as hashtag. Not so good when our sons both started school together in September (yr8) cousins son comes over to say hello to my son to which he says oh you're hashtags son - bloody mortified

Haha that is brilliant.

nannynoss thank you!!! I understand the "my bad" thing now.

I hate the hashtag thing on FB. I have a colleague who on occasion is sat next to me in meetings and doodles #cunt when they don't agree with what's being said. Now that makes me laugh .

whatdoesaduckdo

YANBU also re hashtag look at me hashtag pain in the arse etc

but in a beanbag/wacky glasses environment what can you expect

Someone at the train station the other day said, "oooooh, BlimeyBurgers!" The train arrived then but I couldn't get on it because I was vomiting copiously in the shrubbery. I texted my boss to explain why I was late and he completely understood.

Me and DP do use amazeballs as a joke. "This pie is amazeballs!" "You look amazeballs tonight dear!" And chillax sometimes. Has to be only occasional though because I don't want to actually end up coming out with these in another context and someone might think I'm actually not being ironic and am a twat

"emosh" is awful, I hope I never use that even if I was joking! "cray cray" bleurgh.

wtf is "blates"?

No self-respecting teenager would be caught dead saying any of the words/phrases in the OP these days. Which would make it even more cringeworthy for an adult to speak that way in a serious fashion. But I would imagine most adults who toss off these words are attempting to do so in an ironic, postmodern, post-sensible way.

I was informed that they are not beanbags they are "gaming chairs" they are filled with styrofoam beans, it's a beanbag mate.

BlimeyBurgers? Have you found one I don't know? Should I even ask?

Blimeyburgers :) I actually quite like that, but it wouldn't be funny any more if it was suddenly all over Twitter and being said by slebs etc.

What does "blates" mean?

I'm assuming blatantly.

Clearly you are in need of some holibobs my own fave rage maker

Go into work Monday and say "those beanbags are totes amazeballs and cray cray" and then when they say no they're gaming chairs you can say "my bad hashtag lol"
