Unnecessary use of the present continuous

[branflake81]

as in: "I am loving your skirt Branflake"

It just sounds so...vulgar.

Branflake, I'm feeling your pain.

i'm loving it

I am soooo agreeing with you

It's ever since the McD's advert in my opinion, and I am, actually, hating it too.

This gets me too. And it's all McD's fault (and wasn't it Justin Trousersnake who sang the song? )

I teach EFL and it's now near to impossible to get the students to believe me that really it is incorrect grammar : 'but the song says...'!

I cringe every time I hear it (or see it used on mumsnet!)

It also makes it sound as though there is some activity:

"I'm loving your shirt"
"Well make sure you don't get it dirty, I need to wear it again tomorrow"

I'm seeing where you are coming from.

Anyone else hate it when people say "I heart..."?

I am hearting this thread
