“SUCCESSFUL.” This one really gets on my nerves, especially because in the past two decades or so, everyone is desiring a mate that is “successful.” I wish them well! LOL!
People saying or typing :
LAWLZORZ
L33T
NOOBZORZ.
-zorz and typing with letters AND numbers.
I hate when people type with more than two exclamation points. Especially when it is something that is only semi-exciting, which is usually the case.
believe you me. UHHHHH…?
Same differance. uhhhhhh…?
most slang in general if it comes from a rappers mouth you will sound like a fucking moron repeating it! I don’t understand why it’s cool to make yourself sound like an ignorant fucking moron because some other idiot does or says something on a record? Get at me wit cho feeling ya mean
Replacing “you” with “cha,” like “What cha doin’?”
Most of you guys must be walking time-bombs if this trivial shit is really pissing you off. How the fuck do you watch the news or do business when the heavyweight bullshit is pouring like wine from the mouths of true cunts?

I don’t think it’s pissing us off, it’s just annoying and plain stupid. We are trying to distance ourselves from it. This was a good thread.
All management speak is bullshit. I had to call in sick to work a few weeks ago and called my boss before he got in to let him know…
“Dave, I’m not feeling great so I won’t be in today”
“Have you called the operation?”
“The what?”
“The operation.”
“What’s that?”
“The operation… The office. Have you called the office to let them know?”
“Why didn’t you just say ‘the office’?”
“… just make sure you call in.”
What… the… fuck
“Lets think out of the box”. What a stunningly inarticulate cliched and unimaginative way to describe innovation.
“first things first”
Its daft, first things will be first, its not like you would ever do third things first.
“Lets get back to basics” heavily overused in sports
“im taking it one day at a time”- would you ever take it two days at a time

I actually like this one. I sometimes use it as a substitute for “In your face!”

Let’s take it one game at a time.
Defense wins championships.
We have to focus on the fundamentals.
We have to simplify our game.
If we dump and chase and finish our hits, we WILL be successful.
Hockey interviews are as exciting as root canal.
Here are a few sayings/terms I’ve been trying to popularize:
That’s deck-this means something is cool, like “that shirt is pretty deck”
Glad-similar to deck. “Man, that movie was fucking glad.”
Fin-the opposite of deck or glad “Heidi Montag’s cellulite? That shit looks fin.”
Spec-clean, smooth, very refined “his form on that deadlift was spec.” “that wine is excellent, very spec.”

This post is aces
The one that drives me up a wall:
“Actually.”
When you ask a cashier or a floor employee or a waiter/waitress a question, and they reply with:
“Actually, we don’t have that in stock right now”
Or
“Actually, its after 6:30 so happy hour appetizers are full price…”
And the other thing is that even though it’s a statement, with no interrogative in the structure AT ALL, the person still makes it sound that way, eg
“Actually? It’s after 6:30? So happy hour appetizers are full price?”
Any time that word is used at the beginning of a sentence it’s immediately condescending and the fucking complete opposite of the answer you’re hoping for. Why the fuck they can’t just say “No” is beyond me, and it makes me sad that they have to do this big verbal dance with flourishing adverbs rather than getting to the motherfucking point.
There was a guy on my team at work who was giving me “actually” answers when he first started with us and I had to train him out of it, by repeating his statements back to him as fucking ridiculous as they sounded coming out of his mouth… So he could ACTUALLY hear it.

No. It’s deck.

“for all intents and purposes”
not too bad on it’s own, but I used to work with a guy who managed to fit this phrase into almost every sentence. the best part is he was actually saying “for all intensive purposes” and I never corrected it because I found it hilarious.

I swear, I’m going to start throat punching people over this one. It just pisses me off on a base, animal level.
I work in IT so there’s a bunch of dumb phrases in the industry that piss me off.
“Let me drive” - when the person wants to sit at your computer as opposed to instructing you what type
“Kick the tires” - meaning they’ll let you evaluate the product and test it out.
“He’s our guru” - as if there’s something spiritual about computer programming. Say specialist, not guru.
General sayings I’ve hated are
“It’s all good”
“That’s whats up” when some agrees with me.
The word “like” used over and over again. Working on a college campus, I wonder sometimes if these kids are retarded.
“ya know?” . I took a mean shit and my ass was all sore afterwars…ya know?
“Actually” as another poster described above. This drives me nuts.

“literally”…another overused word.
