Most annoying words, terms, phrases

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

People who say things like hashtag(and even make a hashtag hand gesture when saying it), wtf, lol, omg (the letters themselves, not what those acronyms actually mean).

And those who shorten words that don't need to be shortened. Calling a pizza a 'za is one example.

Also, people swearing around kids. Don't mean in public on the street because that's different. I mean people in their own yards swearing (not angry or yelling, just using words in regular conversations). You got kids living all around you, in a yard adjacent to you, but you and your friends will start dropping f bombs in your conversations that can be heard multiple houses down the block. Yes, somebody think of the children.

What is a hashtag hand gesture?

What is a hashtag hand gesture?

What kind of signs are they throwing up Canada?

Only thing I can think of is doing the "peace" sign with one perpendicular over the other.

I honestly would’ve never looked at that as a hashtag.

I legit can't imagine someone doing that in real life.

Man I am so guilty of the swearing thing. My wife yells at me for it all the time, but that's just who I am. I'm pretty good when I'm out in public or something like that, but at home...well it's not so good. Even around our 10 year old son I tend to be pretty bad, although I'm getting better all the time.

I used to have a co-worker that would do that with names. The one that annoyed me most was my co-worker Rebecca...that she called "Rebecs." I once asked if she was really so lazy that she couldn't be bothered with an extra letter.

I have a co-worker (different one) that almost literally cannot say the word "hashtag" without doing that. She's a good friend and laughs at herself for it so it's not annoying so much as something to tease her about.

That's what she said. Granted I say it all the time when presented with the opportunity. I kind of annoy my self.

That's hilarious, I use that one at any opportunity as well. The wife and I are big fans of The Office.

On the hashtag thing.

Where I work you have to hit the # then the extension to call an extension. We have a guy that when he pages someone he will say "John hashtag 222"

...right up there with supposably.

If I saw that, I would think someone was signing.

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

this one doesn't have anything to do with colloquialisms, but I've always been bothered by "spatter" instead of "splatter", I don't understand the need for two different words, and why make them 1 letter different?
