To hate it when people say....

[Chocolate50]

'I'm not racist but....'
You just know that whatever they say next IS going to be so racist..

Pet peeves everyone, what's your most hated phrase...?

I seen that
I’ve not done nothing
He done really well

Arghhhh

I'm just being honest (used by people saying horrid things)
It's just banter (used to deflect the fact that you're a twat)
I'm only joking (see above)

I hate the whole PA using jokes to tell the truth about something. DH used to do it when we first met and it drove me mad - I used to call him on it every time and thankfully he doesn't do it any more, but his Mum and Sister are awful for it - the whole family is on PA comment away from nuclear war.

My worst 'It is what it is'

I agree. Along with 'literally'

Working in silos

Turned around and said

It is what it is

You did amazing

His instead of he's

Basically
To die for
Pacifically instead of specifically

I agree that saying ‘I’m not being funny, but ...’ just sounds completely naf, what does it even mean???

And also I hate the line ‘With all due respect...’

Exactly what you have just said!

"You know I love you but..."

"Have you thought about..."

Or Any other precursor to unwarranted advice. F off Sharon let me live my life...

Literally as in ‘I literally died’.

No, you didn’t Susan, you’re still standing there talking shit!

I hate "it is what it is" too. What else could it possibly be? "It" couldn't be anything else if it tried! A loathsome ex boss of mine used to say this every time he was questioned on the fairness (or otherwise) of decisions he made. Every time I hear it it reminds me of him and I could scream!

It reminds me of Miranda Hart.

"No offence, but you're an ugly bitch". 😂

“Escape goat” is my personal favourite

I'm just trying to be honest ....

Moving forward

Methinks
Just thought I'd touch base with you

Literally being used in every sentence. Grrrr.

Wrong use of the word myself, ie

Myself and Johnny went into town yesterday ......

“Wotcher/whatcher? Watcha?” However the hell you spell it. It’s weird

“You know me...” followed by telling you what behavior trait they dont have when they actually do

"To be fair..." followed or proceeded by something that has absolutely nothing to do with fairness!

"The trip was good to be fair"
"To be fair, the pub doesn't open til 6"

“Thank you for reaching out to us”
No, I’m not reaching out. I’m asking a question and would like a sensible answer, rather than the load of carp you’re probably going to give me.

“You know me...” followed by telling you what behavior trait they dont have when they actually do

Dot Cotton from EE springs to mind! "You know me, I'm not one to judge, but..."!

And why is everybody “fuming” these days?

As said on GOT.....everything before the word but is horseshit

Don't take this the wrong way, but....

Also:
I don't mince my words
I speak as I find, me
I'm a rude, obnoxious idiot without any internal filter
Even if it's not a critical/shameful thing to point out at all, it's like they're toddlers who do indeed verbalise all of their thoughts - like the dim sister in Notting Hill, who felt the need to say "Oooh, you're in a wheelchair!" like she didn't already know that her legs didn't work as they ideally should.

For some reason, I'm reminded of Godfrey Bloom, who was questioned as to why the UKIP brochure/manifesto featured pictures of 50 or so people and every single one was white - and wasn't this maybe rather insensitive and ignorant of the country's racial diversity? He instantly responded by asking the questioner why THEY had felt the need to check for this like it wasn't stinking obvious and spend time counting the zero non-white faces and proceeded to shout "Racist! Racist! Racist!", whilst hitting said person over the head repeatedly with the brochure for good measure.

Literally as in ‘I literally died’.

No, you didn’t Susan, you’re still standing there talking shit!

My in-laws use "I'm not being funny but..." all the time and it is always followed by something shockingly rude.

My favourite is when my FIL said "I'm not being funny but I don't like this hat" when he opened his birthday present from us. He even asked us to return it and we refused.
