I usually ask ‘your bad what?’

I hate it, and like Fekko I usually ask the same question.

YANBU. It makes the person saying it sound like an idiot.

MrsMaxwell · 25/01/2018 20:21

Is it American?

mrsharrison · 25/01/2018 20:21

Penggwyn I'm with you. Don't like the word "veggies" either.

Only1scoop · 25/01/2018 20:22

Mrs Maxwell

I don't know origin of this hideous phrase. I want it to just go away.

I see I'm not alone though

I hate this and each time I hear it I feel like ripping my ears off so I never have to hear it again. Stupid saying...vent over!

madasamarchhare · 25/01/2018 20:23

Can’t bear it. It doesn’t even make sense.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 25/01/2018 20:24

I like it. It makes me think of the film 'Clueless' which is where I first heard it and remembered with much affection!

Ginkypig · 25/01/2018 20:24

It's awful as is the hideous soz!

If your taking responsibility for something or apologising for something at least sound like your serious about it and not sound so bloody casual.

Busybusybust · 25/01/2018 20:25

YANBU

Partypopper123 · 25/01/2018 20:26

Soz has been around for yonks!

WorraLiberty · 25/01/2018 20:28

I hate it too

And while we're having a moan, I also hate people starting replies with 'So'.

"Can you tell us how much you raised for the charity?"

"So, we went on a bike ride and raised £300"

I don't know why it annoys me so much Blush

Julie8008 · 25/01/2018 20:30

So? so what?, its your bad!

We dont speak Shakespearean any more, language evolves.

MrsMaxwell · 25/01/2018 20:30

WorraLiberty

Me too.

Only1scoop · 25/01/2018 20:30

Worra I also hate 'So....'

I think it's possibly replaced 'Basically....'

My pet hate is
'Obviously' every 3 or 4 words.

Trashboat · 25/01/2018 20:33

I say soz and tomoz Blush

Sheeeesh · 25/01/2018 20:35

Not so much.

E.g that would look great on a size 6 model, on everyone else not so much.

Argh. Bleach your mouth.

Only1scoop · 25/01/2018 20:36

Trash

They don't irk me too badly

OP posts:
Ginkypig · 25/01/2018 20:38

Tomoz I can just about cope with trashboat but soz sound so insincere like your just saying the word but not feeling the emotion that word represents. In my opinion obviously I can't talk for anyone else.
