Most hated phrases

    Personally i dislike the phrase "I want" from kids . Prob not a phrase but it boils my blood to hear kids say that- just sounds so spoilt!And its normally heard being roared in supermarkets:p

    Another from adults is the phrase "You have to", I have a friend and she annoyed the hell out of me, if i couldnt go out/ couldnt meet her at last min- anything really she would start the "You have to" stuff. She stopped saying it around me now but when ever anyone says to me"You have to" i get very annoyed- and its normally followed by me interupting them and saying "I dont HAVE to do anything "

    Do you have any phrases you hate to hear?

    I just have two words that I'd remove from the English language.

    "like" and "mild". Not sure why they annoy me so much, but they do.

    "Cheer up, it might never happen!" as it's normally spoken to someone something has already happened to.

    "I could care less." Oh, so you do actually care a little?

    Not phrases as such but I despise the way newsreaders say "GorTHa" instead of Garda.
    And now that lent is here, they've started saying "THrocaire"
    There's no fúckin "H" in there so stop saying it!! Does my head in. :mad:

    'I'll chop your mothers balls off'.

    .com or out added to the end of a phrase.

    Anytime somebody says 'funny.com' or 'funny out' I just wanna punch them in the face.

    Can I pick your brains...

    Why? Why would anyone say that?


  • Registered Users Posts: 82 ✭✭Badhb


    'You know that kind of way'.

    I don't know why, but I start foaming at the mouth when someone starts peppering their conversations with that particular phrase.
    I completely end up forgetting what they are talking about, I just start to really, really hate them.

    Working for a large multi-national company means you got to hear a load of b0ll1x every day, some that really grind my gears are:
    "Low hanging fruit"
    "Proactive solution"
    "Going forward"
    "Work smarter not harder"

    "I was like, 'Oh my god!' Do you know what I mean?"

    No, I have no idea what you mean. Were you shocked? Mildly surprised? Angry? Why not use words to describe how you felt?
    Have you used up your monthly quota of adjectives?

    Dean, Trócaire is an Irish word meaning mercy. It is usually pronounced "Throwcarra"

    Same with the Garda - tis an Irish word pronounced "Gartha"

    Not a phrase but when anyone uses the word "libtard", I immediately assume they're stupid. "Political correctness gone mad." There are times when this phrase is indeed true but most of the time the person using the phrase is below average intelligence.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 69 ✭✭IsaMtq


    When someone states something fairly obvious but precedes it with ‘I won’t lie to you’.. bla bla bla – why do you usually? just a thick phrase.

    Also, when someone thinks that by saying something offensive, but following it up with ‘no offence like’ they think they have the right to be rude but not held accountable for it!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,199 ✭✭✭Shryke


    Libtard? What is that meant to infer? Liberal retard? I have never heard of this word before.
