HonaloochieB Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 'Like'. As in the like overuse like of the word by like y'know people who like should like know like better.One of the hippy hangovers we could do without. Though some are 'cool'.

Guest Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 'Was like' when used instead of 'said', particularly those endless inane conversations girlies have on their mobile while on buses.

HonaloochieB Posted May 17, 2008 Author Share Posted May 17, 2008 Emphasisers placed in front of the word 'unique'. 'So', 'very', 'really'.It's unique, it is one of a kind. It can't be more than that. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/3315-wordsphrases-that-make-you-want-to-spit/#findComment-103458 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Jeremy Clarkson. The name alone is enough. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/3315-wordsphrases-that-make-you-want-to-spit/#findComment-103460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveT Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Is that the Jeremy, 'I love the sound of my own voice' Clarkson. Yes I can't argue with that Ms B but I'm sure there are many who would vehemently disagree.Yeah no I was just starting my fourth sentence with yeah no......We gave it a hundred and ten per cent..........Getting a pubic hair stuck between my teeth, makes me want to spit. Hair wrapping around my fingers, whilst swimming with long haired specimens not wearing swimming caps, when they are as cheap as chips. Those lazy disgusting riff-raff who are too damned idle to shower before entering the pool. Sorry I digress they are actions not words and phrases.......doh!

HonaloochieB Posted May 17, 2008 Author Share Posted May 17, 2008 Ms B, it may possibly be so, but what of it? My favourite singer put out an LP and called it 'Rant' when well past his middle age. It's about the everyday language offences we are subject to. Let's share them.

Guest Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Oh, and 'Have you got a Nectar card?'No, because I have a horror of receiving direct marketing based on previous buying patterns ('Dear Ms B, this month if you buy 4 boxes of euphemistically named feminine hygiene items, you can get a family pack of Maltesers and a TV guide absolutely free.')

BJL Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 "Going forward" "Across the piece""Go for it""Player" or "players" when used in a non-sporting or musical context - for example "Gerald Arbuthnot of Polentica is one of the key players in the low-fat strawberry biscuit market."
