The ones that get me are the everyday TV ones.

"at the end of the day"
"basically"
"to be fair"

ARGH!! :X

But then Im annoyed by nonsensical things like "almost exactly" the newsreaders favourite. Either something is exact or it's not. The word "almost" will suffice.

Weather women who keep saying "Bitterly cold" as if no adverb besides bitterly existed. GRRRRRR Flip 10 channels to watch the weather and all these idiots will be telling me its "bitterly cold"

Which ones annoy you?

"You know what i mean"?? during formal conversations, thats just NOT classy!

"We Was" instead of "we were"......its just soo Eastenders!

"I'm not being funny, but......"

"@ the end of the day, yeah....." Why put the "yeah"or the "right" after a phrase that is already annoying in its own right?

When white people say LIKE after every three words. It's like just so totally annoying. It's like why must you say like so much? It's not like there isn't any other words in the english language. Its like so unneccessay and fake to like speak like that.

No but seriouly try listen to any white person talk and count the number of times they say like you would lose count.


mad-moonie STOP SAYING LIKE I DONT LIKE LIKE ANYMORE!


Boss p's me off too!!

"conversate" or "conversating"

what is that?????

Also the American habit (whichhas now got a visa and travelled to the UK) of making every known noun into a verb by adding "ise" or "ize" to the end of it.
