Im.

Im is the Irish for butter so why use it in your sentences when you can't think of what to say next.

You're some poxy fecker. How did you get that username!??!?

What's up with it?

cashback

Legend (purely due to it's overuse and of course the variant, lege)
Going forward
Disconnect (lots of politicians talking about addressing the 'disconnect' between the public and x,y or z)

peanuthead

right now ... recession

generally ... geebag

j1smithy

One I often see on boards: kids, when used to describe children. They are not goats!

shift

tasty

carlmango11

When Irish people say distinctively American words:

Candy
High School
Mom
Trash
Janitor

and put on annoying American accents, who are they trying to fool???
:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: ARGH!!!!

"Delicious", in my experience it's only used by highly irritating people.

ManFromAtlantis

basically

veryangryman

Shady

When i hear the word, it makes me want to punch the offender

Im just wondering if you all have a word you hate!
Personally I hate all these new made up words, but my most hated is "Fashionista".:mad:
I don't know what it means,...I dont want to know what it means..but every time I hear it I want to throw my shoe at whoever said it!

''Recessionista'' is even worse- it describes those poor fashionistas who can no longer afford 10,000 quid designer bags, and can only get £5, 000 ones instead. :rolleyes:

I have many hated words- ''supple'' is a horrible word. I hate the word ''blouse'' too.

Gah, I'm feeling sick just writing these, I'll have to stop.

Cormac2791

if someone keeps repeating a word at the end of a sentence on the radio for example, like 'em', 'as a say' like'

Quint

the phrase "go figure"
:mad:

Indie18

I hate hearing not, followed shortly by tonight.

sparksfly

Happy Days.
Luvvly Jubbly.
Savage.
Eh hello?

Mrs JackDaniels

Hate phrase "Go Figure"
:mad:

battser

Snr Mgr in work uses the phrase " categorically speaking" in every talk/sentence cause she is such a dumb bitch she hasn't a bean of a notion about IT.:mad:

Its my new most hated word/phrase ever!

weemcd

pseudo

ManFromAtlantis

mum mummy

mathie

The phrases "to be perfectly honest" and "bar none"

WTF are you contributing with those words?

My name is URL

You sir are just a big bag of awesome.

That_Guy

Does 'LOL' count as a word? If so, then that is my most hated word.

gstar

my pet hate is; issues/tissues, but only when its pronounced "iss-yous/tiss-yous" instead of "ih-shoes/ti-shoes". Ann Doyle (newsreader) and our compliance person in work use the first pronounciation, and it really irritates me for absolutely no reason whatsoever lol on the same note i do love the word noodles, oodles of noodles yay

another worky related word i tend to dislike is "kick to touch" whatever that means lol

Souwester

Excessive use of "dude".
Anyone attempting to communicate by using "in'it" and "end of" = automatic disqualification.
"Legend" unless its printed on the side of a diagram.


and Acacia if you hated .....

...didn't you forget "plump"

humberklog

'It's common knowledge'.

Skuxx

I hate the word "spuds", as in potatoes!

Only Irish people say it but personally I can't stand the word!

LoanShark

Fundamentally...The most over used word in Ireland Today!

another one is

'Basically'...I used to work in a warehouse and there was this one guy and no matter what you asked him his opening statment was "Basically its like this....." :mad:

Fink Goddie

Savage! used by boggers (Muck Savages)

stereo_steve

been or seen when it should be being or seeing in the context of the sentence.

Jackine - Possibly the most boggery thing someone can say. Worse than calling someone a townie because they live 1 km away lol

Eugh....no offence mate, but I really wanted to stab you in the face after reading that!

I hate, and yes, its more of a phrase, "I am'nt". Its just plain wrong, people! Its suppose to be "I'm not".

I also hate the word "pleasant" for some reason. "Did you enjoy that?" - "Eh, it was pleasant". It doesn't seem like a very nice word does it?

And finally, the needless use of "Honestly". Something like: "Honestly, I don't know". Well what if you're dishonest? Do you know then?!?!

michaelm

The new kid on the block: "Optics"

Wagon

"Sicko"
One of the most unattractive words in the English language. Idiots use it.

Zapho

Oh, I forgot to add the phrase "due to the fact that.....". This always annoys me when I read it. It adds nothing to the text what so ever. You could just say "due to..."

Retr0gamer

Podcast. I hate that word.

Also jailbreak now being used as a replacement for hacking.

panda100

"Banter" .ahhhhhhh that word annoys me

j1smithy

"The Jacks"... no you're not going to the jacks, you're going to use the toilet/bathroom/wc but definitely not a jack.

Stupid slang

soccymonster

i hate when people say "HIYA!!!"
or O-M-F-G! like they spell out the letters?? why would you spell out OMFG? its pointless.. just say oh my fukcing god.. or even better, don't say it at all!
it really grinds my gears..
or anything polish, i've heard so much I'm nearly flipping fluent.

Xavi6

"Banter" - as used by posh south Dublin ****.

Daisypicker5

I say like aLLL the time and wish I could stop but when people use like and speak in one of those annoying valley girl accents I just walk away from them.

JC06

" So I was like...and he was like." God I hate when people say that, can they not just say I said? Banter is the other one that I hate, and buzz e.g. OMG Desperate Housewives buzz tonight :mad:

i say "like" all the time as well and when i'm explaining things people say i use the word "right" alot as well which pisses them off.

So theres this guy, right.
and he has a dog, right.
and its a brown dog, right.
oh and your man from down the road has a blue car, right.

Guesstimate.

And also when people add "-age" to the end of words ... e.g. "love-age", "dance-age" ... so irritating.

Back when skillage in the village was doing the rounds.

brummytom

Two more: 'Legend' and 'No offence but'

The former is a word that should only be used for TRUE legends (Ok, I might use it to describe Ronnie Drew or Luke Kelly but I mean.. come on!) describing someone as a legend because they said something slightly amusing "OMFG LIKE, SERIOUSLY, YOU LEGEND!!" - just no; I have a mate who feels the need to call me it constantly, I have to sit on my hand to stop me from punching him

And the latter.. "No offence"
I mean for fcuk sake, if someone says that; I just turn off... "No offence but like, you're really ugly". The only good thing about this phrase is it gives me time to start stropping before I'm insulted

Second that. I know a girl who says jacks and thinks that makes her tough. How I do not know.

allabouteve

''At this moment in time''

thats now, right?

''At the end of the line''
''At the end of the day''
''At the end of the show''

All those have me at the end of my rope.

population

"ye"

when people mean "you"

admiralofthefleet

'want'

i want this, i want that.

i hate the word with a vengeance, can people not just say 'i would like'

Driver 8

Any and all skanger slang for a woman's most intimate area

*shudder*
