Phrases that are starting to bug you...

[AbsoluteVirtue18]

"Am I the only one who..."

No, you're not. Please stop asking.

 

[911 fox]

the most annoying phrase i keep hearing is "I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome then you"

That's from morrowind, but its not the worst, I know a guy that calls people n'wah. And compares things to bantha fodder and calls monkeys mynoks. I actually have cut off all communication with him for it.

i thinks its from oblivion actually but i never played morrowind

'Prequel' I hate that word.

I also think it's cruel to make someone who has difficulty talking say "speech impediment." The only reason I can get through that one consistently is that I complain about it so much.

I have a friend with a speech impediment, and we torture him all the time:
"Hey Nick, say purple marker."
"puwpow mawkow."
"Now say red rover red rover we call reggie over!"
"scwew you guys."

OT: I hate when words evolve and their meanings get completely changed. For example, gay used to be a synonym for happy, jovial, cheerful, etc. where now it's only applicable use in common conversation is describing homosexuals politically correctly. It makes me sad when I'm listening to an old song somewhere and the artist brings up everyone dancing or cheering or whatever gaily, knowing that that by today's vocabulary, that means that everyone was acting like a queer. (And queer used to just mean weird! What's up with the same-sex lovers taking all our synonyms?)
I saw a facebook group that said "Gay Is Not A Synonym For Stupid" and I actually joined it for about two minutes so I could post "Gay is not a synonym for homosexual, it's a freakin' synonym for HAPPY!"

If I weren't a misanthrope, I pretty much hate 'lol'. It makes me want to kill small children.

But being a misanthrope, I pretty much hate when people open up their skin-flap mouths and gibber inanely about the weather and who they've fucked recently and how big their cock is. Well, I'll tell you what, I'LL FUCKING RIP IT OFF AND KILL YOU WITH IT!!! DEATH BY COCK!!!

Bonus points for making me laugh. Anyway, this "FML" thing is really starting to piss me off.

Oh God, I've never heard of FML...Do I want to know?

Judging by "I'LL FUCKING RIP IT OFF AND KILL YOU WITH IT!!! DEATH BY COCK!!!", no you don't.

Ah, but now I'm curious.

 

[Timewave Zero]

Ah, I got it. FML=fuck my life.
I don't hate my life.
I just hate everyone else's.
Present company excluded, of course.
I love you all.

Well then, the internet can always explain better than I, so-at your own risk- type FML into google. You should soon after be very angry.

It's an entire website devoted to people complaining about their lives, and then you can either agree that their life is f*cked, or tell them to suck it up and quit bitching. It's pretty funny in small quantities, actually.

 

[Ravenbom]

Now that I'm thinking about it, there's a few other ones that annoy me.

People that say, "It's just a theory" about things like gravity. Theory means something that is completely different in the scientific context. People use the word "theory" like it's just a guess, when in the scientific context it means that it has been objectively tested and has held up against objective, empirical evidence.


Also, people that say "50% more" or any percentage less than 100%, more. That's stupid. It's like saying there's negative 10 more apples. You would be confused and ask, "so were missing 10 apples?" I know our brains automatically translate it to 150% more, but, it's just plain stupid.
For instance, if you ask for a 50% pay increase, you're stupid, because that's actually a decrease.

Actually, since they're saying MORE, it's implying addition, so 50% more would make sense. 100% more is double; it's x + 100%x ie. 2x
50% more is fine. A 50% pay increase is their pay augmenting 50%, so their pay of x + 50%x means they get 1.5x pay.

QQ

It is probably only something my friends say but still after hearing QQ this and QQ that. We are graduated people we have an education that says we can speak in sentences. We don't need to be speaking in letters about everything

My B
The Game LOLOLOL. (Its like these 17 year olds JUST found that where i live and spread it like the plague)

 

[white_salad]

The word "Hella" needs to die. NOW

No matter what you do, southern Californians will always say hella.

I live in LA and don't know anyone that says hella. Though I wont deny that people say it. And I feel like the stereotype is true that it's more of a SoCal thing, but I really don't hear it very often.

Which reminds me, one thing that really bugs me is when people say SC instead of USC. Is it really so much trouble to add one more letter? Is whatever you're saying so urgent that you have to drop a letter from an acronym which is already shortening the effort that you have to put into your sentence?

Odd, I live in fremont and it's all over the place. And that's san jose territory, like hour from san francisco.

 

[Lord Thodin]

"Thats what she said" *shudders*

Same here. I feel your pain man. I also get "Your mom" shudderings. I hate stupid people.
