True,i hate them both but "Nuff Said" is the most annoying to me,i think it's the spelling and pronunciation of whats supposed to be the word Enough,that puts it just ahead of "End Of" in the annoying stakesQuote:

They've screwed up, you're cheesed off and they want to drive you over the edge, by saying that stupid phrase.
Another one is, "yada, yada."
There are people who use it in every second sentence.
If large parts, of that you're saying, can be replaced with "yada, yada", then you're not worth listening to!
Ever see the "Yada, yada, yada" episode of Seinfeld? Classic!Quote:

"High Jinx" - usually said by Oul wans from the country describing a "bit of a do" at the Community Hall.
"There was shandy available, ballroom dancing, and all other types of High Jinx until "the do" ended at 10 past the eleven!!"
Anyone ever noticed the American trend of saying "I could care less" meaning "I couldn't care less"?:confused:
with a certain amount of time.
They've been going out together with 3 years.
Invariably offered by some D4gowl down on a training course.

Why don't we all **** off home so?

I quite like FACT! and END OF!
Nuff Said!
"the exception proves the rule"
no it f***ing doesn't, it disproves the rule
Another one I just remembered now "guesstimate"
Chillax....:mad:

A new Corporate / Gov phrase - "Cost neutral basis"

Basically all the same phrases used every time the DUP and Sinn Fein might share the same room. Boring tedious crap.
EOP/EOB/COP/COB/NETWORKING
rightsizing.....though i have never heard that one being "used" yet thank god ;) :D
"I nearly died laughing/with laughter."
:rolleyes:
I have to admit I do have a sneaking jealousy for the first person who wrote "Laugh? I nearly did."
Not so much for the tv critics/comedy writers/broadcasters/civilian ******* who use it non-stop, though.
"Prove" means "test" in this intance.Quote:

Yes, that's correct.
When people call films 'shows';)
Any **** who begins a sentence with "Clearly,.."
"excuse the pun" when they are clearly only trying to highlight the fact that they made a clever pun
I like "I laughed till I stopped" Can't remember where I saw it used first.Quote:

Someone once told me they wanted to "touch bases" and I laughed down the phone, called them a c*** and hung up.
i hate when people finish every other sentance with "you know"
"Do you know what I mean like"
"I was like"
"Stop it your hurting me" is also a one that gets to me....
init bruv................ obviously I live in London but it makes me want to damage things (i know that could be considered an over reaction but...)
:D:D I have this wonderful image of that happening in my head.Quote:
