Words/Phrases You Hate

When 40 year old white people use the words “shorty” or “boo” Put the Urban Dctionary away
Baby Momma or daddy. How about closing your legs or pulling out?

Not everything is epic, shitheads.

The word “epic” is one of the most misused and overused filler words in the English language.

What are you saying tonight?

Starting a sentence with honestly or basically. :frowning:

People who say no offense when and then its followed by something non offensive.

Fake “countrified expressions” by people trying to play the “good 'ol boy.”

“stronger than an acre of garlic”

“colder than a witches tit/colder than Hillary’s tit”

“hotter than a $3 pistol”

“slick as a bucket of (whatever)”

“Dog don’t hunt”

“Bossman” or “Boss” (speaker is an ex-con and apparently proud of it).

"more (whatever) than Carter’s got Liver Pills (I have no idea what the fuck this means)

++++++++++

Anyway, if you are an 86 year old man actually from the country, you can pull these off.

If you are a 35 year old lawyer turned investment banker come to look at a well you are drilling with other people’s money, speak like a fucking lawyer and don’t try to treat this summa cum laude Aggie engineer and NMSU geologist like a dumb fuck.

Carters little Liver Pills were actual pills that came in a tube or bottle of @100. about the size of a bb they were sold everywhere so the saying.

it’s “slicker than owl shit”, “colder than a witches tit in a brass bra”, “hotter than a fresh fucked fox in a forest fire”

you do know where the saying “albatross hanging around your neck” comes from, right?

I’m only 56 not 86 you young whippersnapper!

I hate irregardless and anyways. Anyways is used so much, I don’t even like anyway but anyways is just a slap in the face. My boss says both of these all the time…

I sometimes switch it up with essentially, fundamentally, and effectively.

I hate when people use the word ‘decimated’ as if to describe something as being drastically reduced when it’s actual meaning is just a reduction in 10%.

I also hate the ‘kluh’ sound as is the words, klux, or cleek. The sound just annoys me

That’s a literary reference and completely different.

It’s the fake country city slickers that kill me.

If you are legitimately an old hick, then, by all means, use these expressions until the cows come home.

don’t know if I qualify as a hick to a carpetbagger like yourself. that’s six of one, half-dozen of another as your opinion carries as much weight as a popcorn fart. I did, however, live so far out in the country I was behind Gods outhouse.

Yeah I’ve always liked the word decimate, but I never use it, because I can’t get over the fact that it’s literal historic meaning was just a 10% decrease. I think it is modernly defined as “destruction of a large percentage of”, but still, feels weird.

Great thread Nards. I have to say ‘Awesome’ is the worst fucking word there is!

I can nearly forgive Americans and Aussies for saying it ALL THE FUCKING TIME because it’s their word (Aussies say it much less annoying tho) but English fuckers and Irish twats that use this word should simply be shot or have their citizenship ripped from them and then shot

But to be a victim of decimation was to be executed violently by chance. 10 of you get in a circle, the one that draws the short straw is executed by being clubbed or stoned by the other 9. That’s why it is a term that has become synonymous with devastation. Because to the individual that was unlucky, it was a complete destruction of his body resulting in his death.
