Words that annoy you...

[GingerBeerMan]

When people say generally instead of genuinely

The world "massively" has crept into normal language a bit too much for my liking too.

 

[Justice]

Lets touch base.... I get an incredible urge to punch people who use this phrase.

 

[wilko1]

Awesome

 

[Dan Aitch]

Traction.

 

[midnight_rendezvous]

Swag and YOLO

 

[dazzer6666]

'Yer Beckhams', 'totes Amazeballs', 'like', as in 'like, I was on the train and, like, this, like, guy totally sat down', 'literally' (when it's patently not literal), YOLO, 'this is big brother'

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Bed wetter
Bed wetters
Bed wetting.

However it's used it's highly irritating, a totally wanky phrase of the highest order.

And this, massively

This.

I think the best way to deal with the people that use this phrase is to say " sorry, what do you mean by touch base?, I have never heard that before"

 

[Hyperion]

Chillax. Piss** me right off

**Awaits a obvious reply

 

[BN9 BHA]

Oh my god.
Even worse when travelling on a bus or a train and having to listen to several teenage girls saying this before or after every sentence.

I really am a grumpy old man!!

Defiantly instead of definitely.

 

[pasty]

Awesome. Especially when preceded by "that was like".

 

[dazzer6666]

Hello ? Yes, I'm on the train, it's ALREADY FOUR minutes late. I know, it's a disgrace. Bloody trains etc.

Oh do shut up will you ?

 

[bhawoddy]

Random

 

[Dr Q]

[Frutos]

- Holibobs

[Pogue Mahone]

- Banter

Never heard 'holibobs' - what is that?

 

[brightonmark1234]

the word reem annoys me

 

[Frutos]

For reasons I genuinely don't understand, some people say it instead of "holiday", as in "where are you going for your holibobs this year"?

No idea why, and it seems to be exclusively twats who do it.
