i cant wait for when shops start advertising stuff as having 15% extra on a cost neutral basis!

Stupid corporate speak /anacronyms I hear at work
-rampdown
-scaling out
-COB /OOO
-having an "issue" with something

"A Monumental moment"

"History in the making"

"Historic Day in Ulster"

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.

Sorry Sonic.
If it's not one thing, it's another.

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.

Back on the original topic, another of my pet hates from the business speak world is "heads up" as in "I just thought I'd give you the heads up on that. Americanised bull sheight. grrrrr. :mad:

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...)
