Do people you talk to have annoying little sayings they keep repeating in senctences? I mean it's like they get stuck on these and keep saying them even when they don't make sense and then you start to fixate on that and as you are listening, you begin counting the number of times they use the phrase....:crazy:
Here is a few that drive me crazy...
well.. in other words....
I was sitting there....
if you'll pardon the expression....
What about:
this-n-that (or it's mutated cousin: this, that, and the other)
"goes"; as in during the retelling of a conversation, "So, Johnny goes, 'I'll bet you can't' and I go, 'I'll bet you can,' and Janet goes......."
be that as it may ( I knew a guy that said that to start almost every sentence)
"lol"; I'm sick of that. You know, when someone's typing away, lol, and they say anything, lol, and then type "lol" every few words lol. Or, even worse, when they type something and end it with lolololol. Come on, it's "Laughing out loud", not laughing out loud out loud out loud out loud!:roll:
"Now that's what I'm talkin' about"; been done to death.
A friend of Sunshine's overuses the annoying phrase, "...I'm telling you that right now." No ****! I thought you were serving me a bowl of soup! Duh! "I don't think she's a good hairdresser. She'll butcher your hair, I'm telling you that right now." Sure you're not telling me that next week?:roll:
For what it's worth....
"Do what?"; Sunshine is real bad about that. Ask her any question, and her first response is, "Do what?" "Honey, where are my socks?" "Do what?" "I said, where are my socks?" "Oh, I think they're in the dryer."
Just a few that get under my skin.
