To be irritated by this lazy talk.

[InisSunset]

When people can't think what to say, they say "and yeah"....... I feel like answering "and yeah what"? Is this just me, or does it irritate other mners.

Vicky Pollard on a fucking loop!

It's hard to pinpoint Stealth because it's in amongst all the other bits and bobs going on in normal conversation.

Innit is english for ne c'est pas. Innit. And er yeah.

Whatever init

'Whatevs, init' Sally, I think you'll find

You need to get with the kidz, yeah?

Yeah cos like I'm reely OLD, innit

Btw the lovely Eddie Izzard does that 'hanging' er yeah after some of his stream of a consciousness style routines, doesn't bother me at all.
What does bother me is my own habit of starting every sentence with er to give myself thinking time.
Full of self loathing about it.

Another one that bugs me is when people say "yes I'm good thanks" or "yes I'm ok" when someone asks how they are, as in "how are you"?......why can't people just say"I'm fine thanks", there is no need for the preceding "yes"

Op I have got this for you.

You know the girl down the road, yeah
With the ponytail hair, yeah
She sometimes where's ripped jeans, yeah
I know right, yeah
She was here in my house Yesterday morning, yeah
.......,,,you get the drift, yeah

boll my DH does that "err" thing before a sentence, it drives me mad.

He'd be using that as a cue to the audience maybe bolleaux? Giving them a space they're expected to fill by laughing.

quencher and yeah!!

No ifs, no buts ,

Yeah but, no but. yeah but , no but. yeah but, no but

And what are you up to, so?

Are you going shopping, so?

The world is going to end, so?

RAGE.

Oh, fuck yeah, I haven't heard any one use 'so' before like that, yeah

YNBU

In Ireland they do this little sucking thing and sometimes whisper, 'Oh! Now...' under their breath straight afterwards. That feels like a polite sort of 'bridging' mannerism. 'And yeah' feels more casually irritating, like 'And yeah, I'm still thinking about it but I can no longer be bothered to articulate it to you or give you any reasonably specific conversational cue....'

Not as lazy as the Swedes ...

Love that Jammington

I think people sometimes do it when the person they're talking to is either giving them a mild 'Wtf?' face, or stony silence and complete lack of interest. The monologue awkwardly tails off with 'and yeah...' or 'sooooo...' with the unspoken subtext of 'Ok I'll shut the fuck up now because I can see you're bored to death, you miserable twat' .

I'm really annoying and I annoy myself with how many times I say the word "like" when talking. I try I to stop myself but I can't help it. I apologise to everyone that has to suffer my stupidness

at Jammington, how the fuck do they spell that??

I know what you mean OP. Lots of annoying traits around in speech generally at the moment. So .... yeah.

Jamming how strange, it's like they're slurping soup.
Margot yes you might be right. What did we used to do before though I wonder.

Sil has recently taken to substitute the word 'thingy' for half of the English language.

'The weather is a bit thingy'

At the weekend she actually said ' the thingy's abit....thingy'

Wtf
