annoying phrases - Page 3

Gulasch Noir · 10.21.2006, 07:22 AM

worst phrases are when german speaking people say things like "it's only money", "anyway", "that's life", "shit happens"

PAULYBEE2656 · 10.21.2006, 07:49 AM

the word "guesstimate"
christ its not even a word, just a mismatch of 2 other words which kinda mean the same thing!

Pookie · 10.21.2006, 07:51 AM

Up for grabs.

PAULYBEE2656 · 10.21.2006, 07:54 AM

irish white farmers saying "bitchin" and using that spasticated hand signal!

porkmarras · 10.21.2006, 10:35 AM

'That's Life'.I hate that.

Trasher02 · 10.21.2006, 10:40 AM

I concur.

jon boy · 10.21.2006, 11:05 AM

whenever something awful happened, i mean really awful my mum would just sigh and say 'oh well nevermind' and look at the kettle. as if saying that and having a cup of tea was the only answer. it annoyed me at the time but i do miss it so.

Was looking at the kettle meant to suggest that making HER a cup of tea would make you feel better?

jon boy · 10.21.2006, 11:14 AM

usually it did yes. even if it was me that felt bad. taking advantage of yr kids to get tea is something that all parents know it seems.

porkmarras · 10.21.2006, 11:15 AM

Aw that's awfully sweet.My mum can wind me up like no other but she is always right.

alteredcourse · 10.22.2006, 04:10 AM

Tokolosh · 10.22.2006, 04:13 AM

"I'm not gonna lie..."
"Pretty much"
"Basically"

h8kurdt · 10.22.2006, 01:04 PM

Well I'm a painter and there's two that drive me crazy when someone says them, mainly passer bys who have no idea what's going on.

"You've missed a bit"
"Ooohhh you've got more paint on you than on the walls"

Cue next scene of their brains on the wall behind them.

k-krack · 10.22.2006, 02:51 PM

Two things my math teacher (terrible) is always saying:
"Generally speaking..."
"Do the arithmatic"

Other things that make me want to punch an infant:

Anything to do with being/doing "random" things. ie, the other day this moron in media arts class, "I have a really random sense of humour." Fuck you.

"Basically..."

...

Anngella · 10.22.2006, 03:03 PM

I can't stand "whatev" or when people constantly say "pretty sure" at the start of every sentence.

schizophrenicroom · 10.22.2006, 03:07 PM

"i could care less"

Everyneurotic · 10.22.2006, 08:51 PM

and one i hate applied to movies: "based on a true story"

king_buzzo · 10.23.2006, 03:00 AM
