Pushing the envelope was an aeronautical term. Envelope is also used by engineers to describe certain curves or something.

I hate when people use the word tits to be honest. Even women saying "oh my tits look saggy today" etc. It does my head in.

Pighead

If Pighead hears "No Pighead you're doing it wrong" one more time there's gonna be lots of :mad:

Oh and the whole "Its not you Pighead, its me" gets tiring also.

"Yore ma" Was funny when I was in school........

Yeah "Yore Ma" certainly was!

"Swings and Roundabouts" is one that really bugs the sh1t out of me. Mainly because it reminds me of a tosser I used to work with.

"Onbelievable" is another one. Arrggghh!!!

I hate people saying "How Bad?" when talking about something good.
e.g.
-I found the money that I lost
- era shure, how bad?

Just smile and nod, saying that makes you seem retarded.

Firetrap

I hate it when someone talks to me and keeps incorporating my name into every single sentence. It's the verbal equivalent of nails on a blackboard :mad:

I've also noticed that the word Fantastic is in serious overuse on television, especially on British television programs. Listen out for it.

I noticed that among Londoners when I was there 2 years ago, very annoying.

a sell out and poser.

There's one crap, stupid, stuck up kind of phrase I don't like.

Where we were (really) young ones in simpler times down the country (in a town actually) we used to say 'mammy'... and "me mam" is pretty Dub rather then Irish.

Wrecks me tits.

Here's another phrase I don't like.

Any more? hmm, I was discussing this with a mate earlier and came up with at least six

Your 'mate'? That sound a bit English to me. Now, maybe if you add 'me' on front of 'mate' it might be ok.

'lets touch base'

Where did that come from?, what's wrong with "catching up" at "the end of the day"

ctc_celtic

i had to break up with a girl who would say 'at the end of the day' during most conversations. bugged the sh1t out of me.

dfx-

Overuse of "it's not rocket science" bugs me more than a bug picking my eyes out:mad:

O dear, i use most of the phrases in this here thread


Don't use it often but do use it.


Well i would use it if i had one


I always colled my mom mom or sometimes mother when i need something.
I also call my dad dad.
That said i wasnt born here so ill use that as an excuse.


Guilty again though i wouldnt call a party random, i'd generally use it when someone says something that was well random (ie no bearing on conversation) or something that was really unexpected.

I hate all buzz words, generally cos ppl saying them dont really know wtf they talking about.

Also i really really hate the words "ma" and "da".

Haha! Then you annoy them.:D

Fcuk buddy- this is Dublin.

You're an idiot. Yes, this is Dublin. Perhaps there are some people here who don't like the word "bird". Perhaps there are some people here who like nice concise phrases. Perhaps there are people who like having sex with attractive people while not looking for a relationship.

QFT- alright, its net exclusive, but Ive only seen it over the last few months and its retarded.

Its been around for years and a phrase can't be "retarded". You're retarded.

"Mom"- or more specifically, Irish people referring to the oul one as Mom.

My family has been calling my Mom Mom forever. She's from Tipperary, so it has nothing to do with Americanisms.

You're both wrong.
