Phrases that sets your teeth on edge

Banter. Pregame. Lash. Often combined in a single sentence, eg - "Tarquin, I cant wait to get lashed tonight, fancy some pregame banter at mine?" Im not sure how many of you will get that.
 
Simples :bat:

Ever since those bloody annoying Meerkat adverts, everyone is saying "Simples" Grrrrr :annoyed:
 
Sale Continues Instore, aarrgh! It's not even a word, and if it was where else would it continue?
 
People who put lol at the end of everything. I mean EVERYTHING. FaceBook is terrible for it...

"Sam is having a cuppa lol"
"Bill is taking the kids to the park lol"

******s.

It annoys me when people call me a northerner. I'm from the ****ing Midlands :annoyed:

Ditto that :D

"Baby on board" - buy it a baby seat you miserable sod :shake:

"Mother To Be On Board"

I mean, come on?!?!?!? Whats the ****ing point in that? Surely its useless after 9 months? What a waste of money that was you daft mare :lol:

Edit: I cant believe ******s has been starred out :lol:

agree with that..

trouble is these stupid phrases start to rub off on you after a while.. yesterday i caught myself saying "thanks bud". luckily it wasnt a full blown "buddy" or i would have had to end it all right there on the spot.

:gag:

PMSL. Then there's "matey" aaaaaaaaaaagh!! :gag:
 
I hate the saying "It's to die for " I mean who would, for a bit of cake or what ever, damn Americanisms, well maybe you would if you ate to much :lol:

Can you just confirm what flavour cake we're talking about?

I use 'Matey' all the time and 'Seemples' - if you live anywhere north of London, you ARE a Northener or better, a Northern Monkey...
Nothing wrong with a bit o' banter prior to getting well-lashed...at the end of the day, it's all good innit...lol


errr...
 
"to be honest" which means they are lying through there teeth :bat:
 
For anyone who plays games online or frequents gaming forums/threads, the word that always gets me is "pwned". WTF does that mean to me? :bat:

A phrase that always grates me is "bear with me". Can't stand it. :bang:
 
i love it when people say "bear with me" because when they come back to me i say "has it gone?" has what gone?" "the bear!" :D

Also what i hate the most is "yeah blood" and "your brother was better" :D
 
anywayS

Americanisms are awful

I probably use them all the time...:shake:

Oh god, I forgot...

......enjoy.....

or "for your viewing pleasure"


:bat:

In a similar vein to FITP a few years ago you might have seen "Taylors Transport" on a lorry it is now de rigeur to be "Taylor Logistics", with the added line "delivering your transport solutions".
