Survey: Sayings, slang, cliches, phrases, words you dislike

[Javen]

Let me explain;I hate it when someone says"wrong place, wrong time"

most cliches I dislike for various reasons.

words real or made up and slang - buttocks, catsup, axed(I axed you sumthing), kewl, Vegemite( i don't hear it much but just don't like the word) ya'll

There' a bunch more. What about you?

I spelled Survey without the e. Could a mod please fix it?

[Kapit]

lol always bothered me

whenever someone says the word "like" every third word in a sentence

"you're fired," "is that your final answer?" and all those other catchphrases that happen to come about through a TV show or movie....except Why So Serious, that's a good phrase.

[Slick]

When people use any kind of chat room lingo in actual conversation. Put bluntly, it drives me insane. It also irritates me when people curse every other word. Not saying my language is clean by any means, but enough is enough!

I thought that was intended as a slang work, actually. LOL

[Javen]

lol

[Sarah-Leia]

"Bucks."

Jeez, dollars!

[Master Magnus]

I utterly dislike EVERYTHING which have to do with leet speech. I can tolerate and use variants of "lol", but that's it.

No, I said Y'all, as in You All. Not ya'll. :lol: :wink:
I agree. That sounds really redneck (no offense to anyone).

[Sarah-Leia]

Yeah, I hate Y'all. GRRRRR.

I also hate probaly, libary, Febuary, dunno, gonna, whanna.

[Solo]

Just an example. Customer enters the shop;

Customer: Can I have a bottle of ****, please?
Sho Owner : I'm sorry, we sold them all. There's any left.
Customer: Oh no. Not even one left?

For God's sake, the guy just told you that there isn't any left. Why do you have to ask for it again. Do you think he is hiding some for people who ask this meaningless question?

[Kapit]

I utterly dislike EVERYTHING which have to do with leet speech.

how can you not love a little 1337 :P

I hate everyone that uses "f***in a" in a bad sense. It's a good phrase, like "Hells Yeah" or "Rock on!" :yeah:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

I hate the word 'no' and the phrase 'let's just be friends'. *Yawns*

[empire21]

I hate being called "Dog" by skinny little white guys who think they're cool and you're there friend. I'd like to eradicate this world of that kind of rodentia.

[Kapit]

You mean the suburban white kids tryin to be gangsta cause it's apparently cool now?

Yeah, I don't even listen to what they say anymore.

[empire21]

Yes! Them are the bastids!

Nor do I listen to them, except for the one I must work with, but he may have a work related accident soon.

[Solo]

Yes! Them are the bastids!

Work related accident!:rofl:

[Momin327]

I hate, HATE the phrase "BFF"

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^ Result, I don't even know what that means, so I can't be annoyed by it! :nahnah:

[Slick]

That seems to be the "in" thing to be around where I live as well... thus, I hate them all.

[Javen]

I remembered a word I hated that is butchered. One time in Kentucky I was at the mall and these teens were saying"Mane" "instead of Man" Like this"Hey, mane, what's up mane" I was like what? Are they at talking to a horse or something?

Then I seen the movie Hustle&Flow. Terrence Howard's character who lived in Memphis spoke the same way. He said"Mane" instead of "man" It got on my nerves and I've been in Memphis before a few times and never heard any speak like that.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^ You Americans all speak funny, innit? :tease:

[Kommandant Felix]

I agree. That sounds really redneck (no offense to anyone).

I agree with you. I rarely ever use such words, and get highly annoyed should someone use them, especially air headed blonds (no offense to the blonds out there, but the airheads really annoy me.) LOL, ROFL, LMAO, BTW, BFF, TTYL, all of those just annoy the pants off me.

[Javen]

^ You Americans all speak funny, innit? :tease:
what's innit? Do we use a word like that? you mean ain't it?

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Yeah, innit is now UK slang for 'isn't it' or 'ain't it'. It's very annoying but became so widespread that even older people say it, for fun, to annoy people!

[Javen]

sounds like a redneck saying. Like"Innit nice ta be with yer family, Ya'll" haha

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^ Exactly! Originally I think it was an 'ethnic' thing, but pretty soon every kid was at it.

[flo fett]

Words that I dislike for no rational reason: Superb, basically, quango, synergy

I also hate absolute fuds that use 'office speak' such as 'thinking outside the box', 'downsizing', 'blue sky thinking', and 'lets not reinvent the wheel' you end up with people talking like this:
"I guess adding more complexity into this particular strategic initiative would put too much pressure on the various points of leverage, and our goals would be unattainable in an accelerated time horizon."
*shudders*

I also hate
'Don't be a hater'
'...is the new black'
'well, you're intitled to your opinion'
'I'm not rascist but...'
'Well, actually...'
'No offense but...'

I'm stopping now before I get into a mad rant :lol:

[Snake_Judge]

ITs not a saying or anytihng but I hate the macarena

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^^ Well, actually Flo, I said that exact sentence at work today and as a direct result of that and the fact that we are downsizing the directors thought outside the box and have decided to let me go out to pasture. So I'm probably gonna have to reinvent the wheel to get another job. Basically, I'm not a hater, but being inbetween jobs is not the new black. However I will be proactive and hope that the superb synergy between my positive mental attitude and my drive to get things done in a more user-friendly manner will end this period of mine outside a quango.

*feels a dull thud in his back then collapses as the toxic dart takes swift effect.* I'm not rascist but, you Mandalorians really are dangerous!

[Horse_Head]

I hate when someone says they had a Brain Fart. WTF?! It makes no sense at all and you sound like an idiot.

Yeah, I agree. I usually get brain cramps.
I have brain burps... :P

^ Result, I don't even know what that means, so I can't be annoyed by it! :nahnah:
BFF = Best Friends Forever. :barf:


I hate the word "word" ... Word Up, Cherry Coke!

[JackBauer24]

When people use any kind of chat room lingo in actual conversation.

I got in a conversation with someone who actually said "LOL." Not "laughing out loud," L O L. I smacked him.

I used to work in a library, and I HATED "liberry." I hated it. Even some of my co-workers said it. They way I figured it, I did not work in a fruit.

Oh, and Solo reminded me of something. When I worked at the library, we had a service where a company would use our building to prepare taxes for low-income families. All we had to do was take appointments. I had a woman call up, asking for an appointment. I told her that our earliest appointment was on February 13th (or whatever the second Saturday in February was).

"Is that the first Saturday in February?"
"No, it's the second."
"Do you have any in the first week in February?"
"No, our earliest appointment is on February 13th."
"Do you have any in January?"
Grrr.... "No, our EARLIEST appointment is on February 13th."
"Do you have any in the first week in February?"
Okay, b:censored:, you're starting to get on my nerves. "NO, OUR EARLIEST APPOINTMENT is on February 13th."
"You don't have anything earlier?"
:doh:"NO."

Wow. I wonder if stupidity is genetic. If it is, I fear for her children.

[Javen]

more words I dislike.

Haiku and carpool.

[Blizzard]

It bugs the crap out of me when people say "ImporDent". It's "imporTant"! I understand it's a cultural thing and they say it that way in the South, but when they say it around here in the North and when the PRESIDENT says it, it pisses me off!

[Sarah-Leia]

^ It annoys me too! Everyone at home speaks so...lazily! Here too!

In Singapore, I hate 'Lah'.

One lollar, lah.

Alright, lah.

[Sarah-Leia]

Then I seen the movie Hustle&Flow.

^ You Americans all speak funny, innit? :tease:

Yeah, well, no offence, but I had a little sudden death when I read 'Then I seen', Javen.

*dead*

But it's okay. I can tolerate it in writing. :wink:

[empire21]

It bugs me when people type "teh"

WTF?

[Sarah-Leia]

Oh yes. That's teh most annoying thing ever.

[empire21]

Almost as bad as WTF?

[Sarah-Leia]

WTF, you don't like WTF? I love it, I use it when I don't really want to swear.

[empire21]

How is What the Fudge swearing? :giveup:

[Sarah-Leia]

I don't know it as What the Fudge. I know it as What the F-ck?

Not Fack, Feck, Fick or Fock.

[empire21]

My apologies. :howdy:

[Sarah-Leia]

You're excused, my beloved squirrel.

[Javen]

Yeah, well, no offence, but I had a little sudden death when I read 'Then I seen', Javen.

*dead*

But it's okay. I can tolerate it in writing. :wink:
I'm confused on what you mean.

[Blizzard]

Proper English is "Then I saw the movie Hustle&Flow."

[Javen]

simple mistake.

[JackBauer24]

One thing that I do, yet I try not to because it annoys me is I say "Ima" or "Imana" Basically a contraction of "I'm gonna" or "I'm going to." Annoying, yet I use it.

Never heard that before. :scratchchin:

[JackBauer24]

Yup. Have that one here a lot. Maybe it's just me; maybe no one else in the entire world uses it.
