"yeah yeah yeah" (spoken at hyperspeed) is the new "i know right"

Roguelike

At this point it feels like it means everything and nothing.

per se
the sound of the words don't bother me per se,
it's more that too many people don't use it correctly per se
I know a guy who can't go a day w/o using the phrase 5 times a day,
which maybe isn't the worst thing a person can do per se.
but it is just TOO much

shirsey.
I say there's no such thing;
it's either-or.
and if it's absolutely definitely NOT a jersey,
then it must be a shirt

I'd say this is a such thing as a shirsey



However...the fan one with a players name, the name of that is player tee. Shirsey doesn't make as much sense to me.

Something I like: people saying "yeah, no" or "no, yeah" before something. I love how it sounds perfectly fine, but is meaningless. But yeah, no, yeah, I like it.

"He is him."

Used to declare someone as being "the man", so to speak.

I appreciated the uniqueness of the phrase the first time or two I heard it from the fringes. But now it's slipped into that zone of announcers and writers/posters going out of their way to shoehorn it into everything as a means of appearing to be up on all the newest slang.

****ing hate that mess, man.

Always trying to sound cool/hip and I’m like “Sir, I don’t need all that. Just call the game like a normal announcer”

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

Random thing I find funny from hearing it multiple times.

The older generation, let's say 50+, has to mention things like how kids today don't know about VHS tapes. But at the same time those same people seem to have forgotten what a VCR is. I've heard the term "VHS Player" so often when referring to a VCR. Sure, a VCR is a player that plays VHS tapes, but it's not called a VHS player...

Obviously we have/had cassette players, cd player, DVD player, Blu-ray player and so on, but VHS player was never an actual term at the time?

Team work makes the dream work.

A guy I work with (who is always looking for help with his own work) says this just about every other ******* day.

My response has now become to always reply ''I don't dream about work.''

Ugh, yes. That was the slogan for the entire management conference one year when I worked for O'Reilly Auto. Everywhere we went, that was being stated or was printed. Hated it then, still do now.

Ugh, indeed. A former employer used to come in and say TWMTDW right before he would increase our workload.

That former employer might need to be culled.

Absolutely. Unless it's in the context of donuts, they can STFU.

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

Some of my guy students are intentionally making gulping sounds at times. Like when an "Uh oh" moment happens (like "We have a quiz at the end of the week").

It's almost like it's some sort of Tik Tok trend... and I'm sure it is.
