Today at work I referred to cancellations as ‘cans’ - I was rightly flamed by my colleagues 😳 I hate ‘amazeballs’ ‘me thinks’ ‘the hubster’ ‘Famalam’ and ‘last past’ - pick one or the other for fucks sake, there is no acceptable reason to use both in the same sentence arrgghhhh

I'm ashamed to admit that I dated a guy who wouldn't quietly excuse himself to go to the washroom but would declare dramatically, "I must go north!".

He also referred to his dick as "Shakey" and spoke of it in the third person. Hearing "Shakey wants to... " in the heat of the moment was not an aphrodisiac, let me tell you.

Abbreviations, they are just too, too much. "Lippy" is awful and "tech" or "techy" are prone to send me into a rage. I recently had someone say to me that I "liked my tech", and later that theirs is "a very techy family". It was a hard struggle not to stamp on their toes.

Does she say 'peeps' too?

That's the one that makes me (most) murderous.

Afew years ago DH,normally very sensible, came home from work with some shopping which he had apparently bought from 'Sainsgurgles' Shock
He was then in his sixties but had been mentoring 'younguns'.
Anyway, the maras deathstare soon sorted that out Smile.
