    Do it, do it! I'd love to know.

    I don't like them.

    'Going forward'
    Everytime it's said, I hear it in an American accent for some reason.
    Also 'super'... Why does everything have to be 'super'?! Another Amerixanism

    The word like. Used at the end of every sentence like!

    Not just at the end of every sentence unfortunately.

    I was like, oh my god and she was like, oh my god and we were all like, oh my god

    I'm going with my main nomination first. It relates to when somebody is explaining their viewpoint on something or a procedure they followed. This one will appear quite often:

    "Anyone who believes otherwise is deluded in the extreme"

    Not too dissimilar from "people who think otherwise are deluded". It's a very arrogant expression.

    Aside from that:

    [Insert name] is pissed (meaning annoyed)
    "Get this"

    The rest have probably already been mentioned.

    "It makes no logical sense" when talking about something they have suddenly become an expert in.

    Yeah thanks for explaining how the Chernobyl disaster could have been averted, Gary, who suddenly became a nuclear scientist after watching 2 YouTube videos.

    'Hollibops'

    Hollibops is normally uttered by 30 year old women with dyed blonde poker straight hair who drive large Hyundais paid for by PCP.

    Their vocabulary sometimes contains the following:

    "Gin O' Clock", "prosecco time" drinkies with the girls" (who are all in their 30s, with straight blonde hair) etc.

    You will know you have entered the home of one of these fine ladies when you spot the "live laugh love" and "at these moments time stood still" with clocks displaying the times their Tiernan, Lillli-moo, and Larryana were born.

    Or, when I spend ages washing my car with a sponge and then, when it dries off, I see the little area that I misssed. It's usually in the middle of a door panel.:o:mad:
