Words that you absolutely cannot stand to hear

[Dexter Inferno]

Definitely any sort of corporate speak bullshit made up phrases where you could use normal, existing words. Don't be such a pretentious knob.

Yolo instantly throws me into full rage. Quite sure I'll eventually unleash the fjooking fjury on someone using that one of these days.

And..."We need to talk".

I really hate the word "Production is running behind, and we have to work a shift this weekend".

I hate that word.

How patronising is 'you need to become more pro-active'

ICONIC POST, BRAH!


Sent from none of your fuckin' business!

You're getting snow for that one, a-hole.

 

[el diablo]

I just used it in another post.

 

[Peeker]

"My bad" instead of an apology.

"No problem" instead of "You're welcome".

Here's another little phrase.

When weather-folk say "in the overnight". :epic rage:

What's wrong with just "overnight"?

 

[markb]

Whatever

 

[Jbird]

it's round, has a crust, and you cut it into slices. it's a pie.

Some are square or rectangular though. Would those be pizza cakes?

The only allowable square pizza is Sicilian. All others are pretenders to the throne.

Reminds me of how you can tell if someone is from LA.

They call freeways "the" 405, "the"101. Just use the numbers, M'kay?.

You do not have to say anything...

 

[jamesp]

I can't say that i really have one. However Ive given it some thought and have decided that although I don't have anything against any word in particular I don't like it when someone pronounces something incorrectly.

In fact, the next time someone does it they're going to be eating hospital food.

How many ways are there to pronounce "something?"

 

[tiger roach]

Acronyms might actually be worse. I work for a government agency so there's a hell of a lot of those. But these make me want to punch a kitten:

going forward
drill-down
Reach out
leverage
stakeholders
dive deeper
competencies
synergy
bring to the table
think outside the box
positive momentum
touch points
paradigm shift
game-changing
value added

Someone isn't a "team player." cop0

"that was the last of the vodka"

 

[baimun]

"There are no more hot wings"

 

[jelloman]

"Who ate the last slice of pizza?"
