    Hate selfies more than the word have teens who spend their time puckered up, drives me scatty.

    I was in town waiting for a friend last week and sat in my car was highly amused at young fellas greeting each other. They didn't shake hands more a clasp and then moved in for shoulder touch. I mean it happened a lot, I was sitting there thinking jeez guys you are in Donegal not "homies from the hood". They thought they were soooooo cool. Nope boys you weren't, just looked like right eejits.

    Laxidaisy.
    Fully aware it's not a real word ('bastardisation' of lackadaisical and oops-a-daisy i presume!) but whenever someone says it i want to smack them :(

    They're just too lazy to say the full, proper word. They have a lackadaisical approach to saying this word.

    And that makes it ok for me to smack them, doesn't it?

    Edit to say, it's not just laziness though is it? Because it's not just an abbreviation, it's changing the word entirely... maybe i should see a therapist about this one, getting very upset!!

    Absolutely, smack away...
    Other than laziness, the only other excuse is dyslexia. My advice is to smack first and ask questions after :)

    Dongle.

    Oh I love avuncular!
    Dongle is an evil, makey-uppy word though.

    Two words I detest 'No Offence'. Why do people even say that? They know they are going to say something offensive, is that just a safety net so they don't end up getting dick punched? :confused: Applies to both genders because only a dick would say something similar to the statement below. :mad:

    I remember it from primary school "No offence but you're fat and you smell". :mad:

    "I'm a childminder and my two mindees are little rascals" - something like that, usually see it on parenting sites.

    Anything Australian sounding. Not the accents, the nicknames and the like. Names like Chazza or whatever the hell.

    Americans say "on accident". That's acceptable if you're five and about to cry.

    Now that you mention Americans; leaving the 's' out of maths is annoying. "Have to go to Math class" GTFO

    "I have math."
    "At least you only have one."

    I get what you're saying here.

    Tummy.

    Call it belly, stomach, anything you like. Not that word.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,487 ✭✭✭Right Turn Clyde


    I hate the word crotch. It reminds me of a guy I used to sit beside in class. Smelly balls.

    "Belly." Hate that word.

    The word abide, should never be used without being followed by the word by. It freaks me out when people used it alone.

    As in, 'I can't abide x,y or z' ?
    That's never bothered me to be honest, but it makes me cringe when a particular person says it, because she over-emphasises it, as in 'abiiiiiiiiiide', it's awful!
