[Misc] To be fair

[Brovion]

"Listen ..."

Or

"Can I get ...."

 

[Mellotron]

People that say 'LOL' instead of actually laughing out loud.

"That's hilarious"
"That's comedy"

Then LAUGH you ****ing psychopath.

 

[studio150]

In the national interest
Would not be delivering on what the British people voted for
Need to come together

Oh Wrong thread

With respect

or even worse

With the greatest respect

Others include

I hear what you say
That's one view

 

[GOM]

'It is what it is' - definitely my least favourite of the current phrases, adds absolutely nothing of value to any conversation/interview.

to be fair, it is what it is

 

[jackanada]

In my heart of hearts....

Apart from its cloying sentiment wtf is it?

There's a heart in the middle of your heart?
You have a heart made of lots of hearts?
You're Dr Who and you really rate one heart over the other?

You're a weak minded simpleton who does sweet fa for your parents, beat your kids in a supermarket and weep over rehashed lady Di stories? Ah yes that.

To be fair, hearing footballers say "you know" about one hundred times during a two minute interview hacks me off more. You know.

 

[Stat Brother]

'our goal difference is better'

 

[el punal]

To be fair, hearing footballers say "you know" about one hundred times during a two minute interview hacks me off more. You know.

Or . . . “this football club”, referring to the one they play for/manage. Call the club by it’s name FFS!

 

[TheJasperCo]

People that say 'LOL' instead of actually laughing out loud.

So, to be fair, it would seriously wind me up if, like, someone said 'LOL' regardless of whether they were laughing loudly or not.

 

[withdeanwombat]

Listen, I personally think too much is made of this,to be fair!

LOL.

 

[worthingseagull]

top 3 overused and (usually nonsensical) for me;

1/ to be fair
2/ it is what it is
3/ I was 'like' and he was 'like'

 

[ArfurW8]

"Not a problem" seems to be overused these days.
When asking for a pint in the pub and the bar person says "not a problem" I do feel like saying " ffs it's pouring a pint of beer I don't expect it to be a fecking problem"
Sorry rant over, I will calm down by going back to the Brexit thread.

 

[pearl]

I was like, he was like, we were like ............

Oh what are you like ....

 

[nickbrighton]

"Can I get.." instead of " Can i have.." Two different meanings which seems to be lost on a lot of people . Yes you can have a coffee which I will get for you. No you bloody well can't climb over the counter and get it yourself. Now **** OFF

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Here's a fresh one to drive you mad - now you know, it will be your new irritant, especially across the Sky TV and radio channels.

The word they have learned is:

ALLUDING

 

[lawros left foot]

With the greatest respect, if you have an issue with this, you are a snowflake.

 

[Wilko]

The phrase I HATE at the moment is the one all over social media where someone posts a vid or meme and people write 'I'm dead' underneath (normally with the crying with laughter emoji). Not sure why it annoys me so much but I am dying or I am dead is not a very nice expression.

 

[Bakero]

Here's a fresh one to drive you mad - now you know, it will be your new irritant, especially across the Sky TV and radio channels.

ALLUDING

It sounds like the word you have learned is alluding.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Innit tho

 

[Icy Gull]

Fact of the matter is...
