My personal phrase that I can't stand is the classic, "At least htings can't get any worse" everytime somebody says that IT ALWAYS GETS FUCKING WORSE STUPID!!!!"
in sapnish "nada es verdad, nada es mentira, todo depende del cristal con que se mira"
attempt of translation "nothing is true, nothing is a lie, it all dependes on the glass you see it through."
it seem like an excuse to not admint you're wrong, my girlfriend says it a lot. *facepalm*

"I'm not racist, but-"
"I'm not homophobic, but-"
it's basically "I'm not racist, but here's a racist opinion". you just know that when someone says that he's just going to go on a rant about those god damned niggerfaggots

I hate "it could be worse"....hell i use way to often and probably should stop.
I think if you have to say the quote to someone, they are probably aware of the dire consequences that could have occurred. Say they got in a car accident, and they almost died. Telling them it could be worse is not much of a comfort.
Oh and "Be Happy".....fuck this. Not everyone has to be happy all the fucking time!

Occasionally there are threads on the Escapists about how to attract women, and there's always some douche that recommends the OP to "be confident", which is retarded because it's like saying "cheer up fucker!" to someone with a clinical depression. WHY DO YOU THINK HE MADE THE THREAD?! HE'S NOT CONFIDENT
That one pisses me off too. Robert McNamara (Sec of Defence during Vietnam war) used the wrong one, and it was really funny to note that a public relations analyst in such a critical time doesen't know the damn difference between could and couldn't.coxafloppin said:
"Get it under your belt" - it's an expression that means get the work done, but it makes absolutely no sense, and I cannot see where the hell that expression came from. How can you get something under a belt - how - HOW DAMMIT!?!?!?
I was reading this and thinking 'oh i'll quote that because I agree with it' but I kept seeing them so I thought it would just be easier to say I agree with the following:
"I'm not being funny but..." Well, no. You're not being funny. Whatever you're about to say has a very minimal chance of being in any way witty. There was no need to clarify it, in case I laughed.
"I'm not racist but..." just means you are about to say something incredibly racist.
"No offence but..." Obviously means something offensive, not funny and possibly racist is hurtling your way.
You could combine all three: "Look I'm not being funny and no offence and i'm not racist but... The colour of your skin offends my eyes."
To add my own, I really dislike stupid use of the word random. "That was SO random". In what way? In what way was it random? Did you calculate the odds for this event? Seeing an odd coloured door on a house isn't random (a specific infuriating example).
One we have in Ireland is "So I turned around to him and I said..." A pal of mine says this all the time. She must spend conversations rotating slowly on the spot.

Two things make me want to burn something down or just become Hartigan at the end of That Yellow Bastard (not kill myself but beat someone's head into a pulp)
"Been there done that" Its so fucking stupid!! And every time someone says that it makes them sound like a fucking hick.
When people say in real life "omg" or "lol" I...I don't really have to say anything to that.

"Do what makes you happy"
That one makes me so mad because they just really want you to do it their way.

I don't like this either. The box is there for a reason, dammit! I feel safe in there!Cpt_Oblivious said:
This also. No one seems to know what the word means any more. It really annoys me.Monkfish Acc. said:
This, however, is the big one. Hell, typing it is bad enough. It's just about acceptable in text messages, but when you have a full keyboard in front of you then why the hell is it so hard to TYPE OUT YOUR DAMN WORDS? People who use them in real life just make me want to punch them in the face. And then kick them while they're down.bernthalbob616 said:
Repeatedly.
"I'm just sayin'": This is usually after someone verbally chastises this speaker for saying something insulting, out of line, or giving criticism where it's not needed. It's mainly used for just reiterating their point, which... Is unnecessary.
"I'm not [gay/racist/bigoted/etc], but...": Someone else touched on this. It's used to try to say something prejudiced about another in a haphazardly way to not be judged as someone who is prejudiced. Not only are you prejudiced, but you're also a hypocrite when you use this.

"Lol" in excess: Also interchangeable with other internet slang. It's come to a point where the original abbreviations, acronyms, and meaning of this terminology has been overused to complete degradation. I can't even begin to count how many times someone has probably said "lol" online and didn't actually laugh out loud. Hell, it's being used to acknowledge someone SAID something it's that bad.

You beat me to it and that's my dads favorite phrase.infernovolver said:
Dad: "Can you cook some dinner for me."
Me: "You know I can't cook."
Dad: "Maybe if you tried."
Me: "I've tried and failed."
Dad: "I'm just saying, you could be better than last time with a little more effort"
when someone says to "think outside the box", it doesn't really annoy me, but yet I always say " Hey, the box is there for a reason, I like thinking in it, it makes me feel safe."
