Is there any more annoying phrase in the world than "end of"
Usually used by people spouting rubbish (yeah I know, I know...) looking to have their opinion count and unwilling to have it challenged

"Going Forward" is my new pet hate. As in "We'll be looking to acheive maximum results going forward" Horrible politico/business speak. Also, aways hate it when people start sentence (usually politicians again) with the phrase "The reality is...."
I'm always saying that but its because most of my mates are living in the twilight zoneQuote:

'Source?'
'24/7'
'How's it going down there, are you under pressure?' invariably asked by some gimp on the phone when you're up to your eyes at work.
'Air-con'
'Winningest'
'Sandi Thom'
The tautological ones like 'literally' or 'to be honest' are my bête noire.
Jamie Redknapp is literally the best in that business; 'Alonso and Sissoko have been picked to literarlly sit in front of the back four'. :eek:
"very unique"
"a man who needs no introduction" (invariably followed by an introduction)
when people say "we" instead of "you"........such as nurses in a hospital saying "how are we feeling today"
Can't blame them if they are talking to someone with MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder):D;)Quote:

i could never understand the ppl who started to say
same differance... instead of same thing
how is a differance and a thing the same??:confused:
it doesnt make sense...ive tried to explain it in my head and boy is it confusing!!:p
Ooo, that's a bit of a cause celebre. I think it has the panache to give it a bit of je ne sais quoi. C'est la vie I guess.:)Quote:

On a related theme to above - There's a great game you can play called "Bull**** Bingo".Quote:

3. Mark off each of the phrases as they are inevitably uttered during the meeting.
4. The first to get a full house stands up during the meeting and shouts "BULL****!!!!".
Great game!!

This is a funny thread.
However there should actually be a punishment on message boards for the ignorant use of my choice.
FACT!!!!!!!
A colloquial version of the 'Bull*hi*' game.....
'Not being funny or anything, but to be honest at the end of the day the words I'm saying are literally the worst in the world, and that's a fact so shut yer face and don't use them, end of, but no offence like.'
(if you just keep adding in the irritating phrases you have the perfect salutation to ward off undesirables:) )
You come out with this after the election campaign. :mad:
the fact of the matter is... :mad:
"Hello, and welcome to eircom League Weekly..."
Mine is ".. need to find closure.."
or for the week that's in it " Bertie is a real man of the people.."
1. "Ole Ole Ole"Quote:

'Whatever'
Saying itchin' instead of scratching...
