A guy I used to work with SERIOUSLY overused the word "irregardless". It always cropped up whenever he wanted to get a point across (while sounding super intelligent in his own mind...)

The day before he left I pointed out that "regardless" would have sufficed:p

Also; "Cheer up, it might never happen!"
I'm not a violent person, but a red mist comes over me whenever I hear that one!

What's the story BOSS!!

They're talking about phrases that annoy them i think.

jiltloop

When people say "same difference" instead of "that's the same thing". That really irks me. "Same difference" doesn't even make sense. It's grammatically redundant (most of the time).

When people say "What Not" instead of actually finishing their sentence, I just dont get it!

Agree with previous posters who mentioned "Going Forward" and "Touch Base"...:mad:

Guy in my office has a really annoying habit of typing EOM at the end of every email! Ehmmm I know its the End of Message because you have stopped typing you clown!!

Actually hate hearing guys say "shes sum buuurrrdddd" Jesus what a buncha yobs!!!:rolleyes: A guy actually said "your some buuurrrddd" to me before and i just kept saying "tweet tweet" everytime he asked me something. Pissed him right off but i got my point across:)

Imagine that in Ireland,Bertihan let the country fall to it's knees while GerryLou remained tight lipped about it.

People who use the word "grand". Like, "I'm grand", I mean how vague is that?

And when people use the "with all due respect" phrase.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

In all fairness = chronically overused to the point of causing agony

Not too bad = said in response to the equally overused question of how are you, which I will not include due to its sheer utility, or on occasions, before the question is even asked. This one is particularly bad, I will kill the next person who says it to my face. It is associated with a fat bloated red cheeked bastard I know who always says it. He is of the deluded opinion that he is some way suave, and that throwing out over used cliches somehow confirms this. I WILL unfortunately yank his esophagus out and whip him with it as he dies squirming.

Basically = not a phrase, but a word which is frightfully overused to levels of absurdity, usually by people who consider themselves to have been endowed with some sort of practical intelligence, which all others around them are somehow lacking. They wear thick framed glasses, which will be smashed as I round house kick them into the wall.

Saying BS or bull**** = Causes my spleen to swell with splenetic juices of fury. I will have my vengeance.

In all fairness Kieran, those examples are not too bad. They are basically used as sentance fillers most of the time, or some bullsht like that


I hate reading posts that start with 'So...' Or 'It goes a little something like this...'
I am waiting for it to break into some sort of hideous rap song.

mamakevf

I absolutely hate the use of the word 'AWESOME'
Everything is not ****ing 'AWESOME'

A post so utterly predictable that it could scarcely cause the raising of an eyebrow, let alone a dusty mace which is stored beneath the kitchen sink for the day when somebody uses all of those words and phrases in a single sentence.

Phew, glad I managed to dodge the penetration of a dusty mace then. But instead my friendly jestful post managed to cop a scathing blow from a grump swathed in twisted knickers.
