I really hate...

[TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross]

"I'm sat" used instead of "I am sitting".

And specifically the phrase "I'm sat on my phone" makes me irrationally irritated.

That is all.

I agree and you even see it in news articles!

I also hate "I brought a new top at the shops"

Brought instead of bought is becoming weirdly common. WHY??

Not to mention lend instead of borrow. Can I have a lend of that?

In my part of the world, you often hear "I was sat sitting at my desk when..." or "I was stood standing at the bus stop when..."

A belt and braces approach

It's increasingly standard with BBC reporters, especially on Radio 5 Live.

"I'm sat here at Old Trafford"; I'm stood outside Downing Street" etc etc

I'm sat here in despair

When is it appropriate to use sat instead of sitting then...
