Most annoying words, terms, phrases

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

"Can I ask you a question?"

To which I invariably say, "you just did....now you have to ask me another one".

Come to think of it... my response may now be someone else's entry here.

"shouldn't of/would of"

It's "shouldn't have/would have"

Misuse of then/than, their/there/they're, a/an, to/too, your/you're

Really all grammatical mistakes, especially the ones you learn when you're in elementary school. It's not that difficult

Worse than that..."Can I pick your brain?"

Nothing, but there shouldn't be anything else. Pop sounds ridiculous, and coke is even more ridiculous.

That's pretty stupid reasoning.

"I could care less"

That one pisses me off because the person is usually just trying to sound cool by not liking something popular. It will usually piss them off if you reply "so you do care a little?"

Not even soft drink?

How about calling it what it is. Mountain Dew, Pepsi....etc

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

That's pretty stupid reasoning.

"Pop" sounds childish and "coke" is referring to a specific kind of soda.

Not even soft drink?

That's borderline, but infinitely better than pop.

How about calling it what it is. Mountain Dew, Pepsi....etc

That works too.

Here are a few more that really annoyed me in elementary school:

-"I don't give a care"
-"No duh"
-"Yes way"

It appears the Soft Drink commissar, JJLinn has spoken. All rulings are final.

I'm convinced that had I stayed at BGSU the constant use of that word would've driven me insane.

Anytime anyone takes internet lingo out into reality. Hearing someone say e pic win in reality just isn't the same as seeing it on a computer screen.

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

I don't find too many things annoying, but I cringe a bit when I see someone post "This." when they agree with a poster on something.

LOL that's great, I almost did that to a few of the posts in this thread. Guess it's a good thing I didn't.

I look at it more as a show of respect, if someone says just what you were thinking before you can get to it, props are to be given.

My one friend, who's one of the dumbest people I've ever met, does this all the time.

Maybe if you didn't get upset at so many words, terms, and phrases, you'd have more than one friend.

Why would I refer to them as "my one friend" if I only had one?

Re: Most annoying words, terms, phrases

When people say "Honestly...." or "Can I be honest...." or "If we're being honest...."

It's like "Oh cool, so you're lying most of the time then?"

Be honest with people. It's not that big a deal.
