Mine's the phrase "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?"
I'm not a cow, sex is not a commodity, and if I marry someone--I don't owe them sex (or vice versa for that matter).
'Wake up sheeple.'. UGH. First of all, why is it my responsibility to wake them up? Second, the smugness is fucking palpable.
Using the word "hater" to shut someone's opinion down, or if they point out a fact. You can't use the word hater just because someone has a difference of opinion or criticism. There is a time that this word is justified, but people use it in the wrong context a lot.
Like' being used throughout a conversation without apparent knowledge as to the correct use of the word. The other week I was on a bus hading North out of Aberdeen, when a large group of American female students joined the journey. All was well and good for about three seconds when the continula use of
like' was inserted into their conversations used as a verbal comma'. It was all I could do not to enter their banter, enquiring as to the exact similarity between
he & her' (he's like and she's like) or else the enjoyment when they like something.
I have a host of verbal annoyances He's an Asshole. Dude. I love you. Call Me. Don't Preach to Me. I don't want to discuss this. She has a nice Ass. Wow, Far Out. It was so Groovy. Let me be perfectly clear. You never told me you didn't like that. I'm sorry. I'll let these resound for others to chime in and I will add a few more as my mind activates.
I furiously oppose the terrible adverb: vehemently.
Lol!
"It was just meant to be." Right after something terrible happens.
Go f*ck yourself.
"Feminism is a cancer" "I'm not racist but...." "I'm a nationalist"
"I mean" especially at the start of a sentence. Can we not just assume that you mean what you say?
"Truthfully" or "The truth is." If you are telling the truth, why do you have to say so?
try "actually"
Not a phrase, a new word - "woke".. Can't stand it..
Argh, I hate that one, too.
"you know"
and the people that say that may say it dozens or even hundreds of times in just one conversation. And I keep thinking to myself, "I actually don't know."
@realneal54 You know, hearing 'you know" over and over is, you know boring.
It is what it is...while certainly true and very applicable at times, it has been done to death.
