I play online on xbox and people say that alot and i'm going to have to agree, it's VERY annoying and retarded.I also hate when people say "and like" a million times.

I hate when people say "actually" all the time. I also HATE "ya know what I'm sayin"...Yes I know what you are saying. I heard it!!!

I am sooo guilty of saying "like" all the time. It's bad, but it's part of my personality. I also say "okay" after sentences. For example.." We went to the store...okay" or " I love you....okay"

Even Queen Elizabeth uses "whatnot" it in her speech, along with "or whatever".

But just to be clear about the word, in *classic* English, a "whatnot" is a backless shelf.

Yes this is quite right. I was educated at a very good School in London and can speak very nice if i so wish to, it is wrong to state that someone who speaks with a certain accent/class may be badly educated, where i come from in South London alot of people talk in slang, which is cutting words short, but it certainly does not mean they are not educated, for instance my youngest brother is a Consultant/Surgeon with a South London accent, i rest my case. The saying that annoys me most is "you get me"

Not a phrase, but rather a word:

"LIKE"!!!!

I HATE WHEN PPL USE IT EVERY 2 ****** WORDS!!!

 

[XkrissyX]

Yeah I would say WOW phrases, which is F***ing annoying. Only because I hate wow and how they brainwash people. AHEM *my man* so i be hearing " PWND. FTL.FTW." stupid phrases like that.

 

[pinksugar]

LOL.. this thread is funny. Some of these phrases annoy me too! I know I have more but I can't think of them right now

"and whatnot" cannot be more annoying. A buddyy friend told me that it's a sign of lack of education and/or speaking ability. LOL

Well, we know I have an education! LOL! Besides, I don't say "and whatnot," I say, "or whatnot!" LOL!

 

[StereoXGirl]

I can't stand "my bad". I've hated it since the first time I heard someone use it. lol.

 

[pinksugar]

ok here is a question - do those of you who hate 'preggers' also hate 'hubby'?? just a thought, lol

Originally Posted by Retro-Violet /img/forum/go_quote.gif you know it makes me feel bad cause i say a couple of the things that have been listed. Same here.

For me, its when people say "hecka".

My pet peeve is medical speak that medical professionals can't pronounce but should be able to. For instance prostate and they say prostrate...uugghh.... Also the word oriented. Like if I'm saying "the patient is alert and oriented". A nurse I work with always says orientated. It drives me crazy, but I'm shallow that way.

Originally Posted by StereoXGirl /img/forum/go_quote.gif I can't stand "my bad". I've hated it since the first time I heard someone use it. lol. I work with a 50 year old that says that. umm can you say "grow the hell up'?

Originally Posted by Aquilah /img/forum/go_quote.gif Well, we know I have an education! LOL! Besides, I don't say "and whatnot," I say, "or whatnot!" LOL! My "and whatnot" is pronounced "blah blah blah" when I can't think of what I'm trying to say.
