    Words and phrases I hate. (Should probably be in R&R, Mods feel free to move if you want)

    Recessionary. Will you get to **** with that word. I swear, if anyone else says, "In these Recessionary times..." I'm going to punch them in the ovaries. (Its usually women)

    Babychino. Its the latest added to my list. Haven't heard it in conversation yet, but I saw it in the Cries of Retail thread in R&R, and it immediately got on my nerves.

    In this economic climate. Wanker. You really haven't a clue as to what's going on. But you've heard it used, and think it sounds good.

    Ute a mean. Someone here uses this exact phrase for "You know what I mean," and it irritates the hell out of me. Every time it's used, my spleen wants to bust out, and strangle them.

    Laul. Someone actually said LOL in conversation the other day. What, are you 12?

    I think the OP was referring to my post in R&R...

    Babychino = cappuccino for a child. Foam, chocolate powder on top and some mini marshmallows if you're feeling fancy.

    People who say it sound ridiculous! Just another one of those annoying Americanisms.

    I thought they were a tiny pair of chinos for a baby or something!

    "omg" - only women say this, any men who do so should have jaws broken, balls blended up and fed to them through a straw

    "Session on" - That's right, you're at a social gathering where alcoholic beverages are being dispensed....no need to clarify it so shut the fúck up.

    If you say the word "Babychino" I'd imagine you're already feeling fancy :pac:

    People who say this = tossers.

    Every time you hear this you should ask "move forward to where exactly?" & act genuinely puzzled. But breath heavily as you say it to add an element of creepiness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 593 ✭✭✭Scráib


    'Going forward': Business people use it too much in the office. What the hell is wrong with the phrase 'In future'? It makes more sense and isn't a buzz word that idiots use to sound clever.

    'Proactive'. Holy crap, I really hate this one. "Be proactive about it", "He's very proactive". I hate that buzzword, what's wrong with 'be energetic'?

    Generally office buzzwords grate on my nerves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    Oh, I forgot:

    Random.

    (Use it in a sentence, please Bob) I was feeling random the other day, and bough some food in a Polish/Lituanian shop...

    Immediately on my "You're a spa" list. Sad to say though, this does include some of my family, as they have used it on Facebook.

    Actually, while I'm at it:

    Friended

    As in, I friended you on Facebook. **** off with your friended.

    Any dumb-fuk corporate speak - "go the extra mile", "think outside the box" etc.

    Disclaimer: I've probably used every one of the annoying phrases that annoy me. :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 111 ✭✭carab


    "Going forward................."


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,331 ✭✭✭✭bronte


    "In the current climate"

    Anyone who says this does not deserve their own tongue.
    They should have to borrow someone elses and THINK before they speak.

    :mad:

    Oh, oh and another one
    " I'm so excited to go to the concert"

    Dunno why but that WRECKS my head.

    Oh and when you're on a fashion website and there's a link telling you to "Shop the collection"

    Arrrgh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,706 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1


    What about people who say basically 10 times in the space of 30 seconds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Pighead hates it when Freddy Fartypants lets one rip and proudly proclaims "Better out than in, eh eh eh?"

    Bollox it is Freddy. It's better in than out and you bloody well know it. By letting it out you have caused everybody in the room to go green due to the noxious odours of your arse innards. Keep it in and save it for later on when you are on your own or have invested in a pair of vacuum tight y-fronts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,595 ✭✭✭johnnyrotten


    The flogging to death of the word "LIKE", like.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 417 ✭✭The Maverick


    Innovation/Innovate/Innovative

    One of the most overused words lately.Every single thing seems to have to be innovative now,otherwise its doomed to failure.

    I had a 2 hour lecture every Monday last year on Innovation - you've no idea how hated that lecturer was!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,815 ✭✭✭imitation


    I hate the all the "recession" words too, mainly because they are an easy excuse for people to be dicks, you can usually find it being said by employers, buyers and even people giving advice. Then of course you see the same people speeding off in there 10 reg car.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated

    So, basically, what you are basically saying is that, basically, you don't like idiots. To be basic.

    I can deal. Its not used a lot any more, and I like that. I also called someone a Dime Bar the other day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,184 ✭✭✭✭Pighead


    Oh and don't get Pighead started on those fcukers who use that annoying "no offence but........" before proceeding to say something absolutely horrid about you.

    Like last week when Crafty Charlie walks into Pigheads living-room and goes "No offence Pighead but you're an absolute arsehole"

    Was just about to get offended and challenge him as to why he thought Pighead was so arseholy when the realisation hit home that the crafty fcuker had structered his sentence in such a way that Pighead was unable to get offended by what was obviously a horrible slur on his good character.

    Very very frustrating phrase that one.

    Another one that gets on Pigheads nerves is when people say "The elephant in the room" Pighead must have heard this expression about a hundred times and each and every single time for a millisecond he always always looks around the room thinking that there is an actual elephant in the room. Crushing disappointment always follows.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 50 ✭✭vincentdunne


    He/she 'does not suffer fools gladly' !! = he/she is an ignorant, intolerant pig and an absolute git to work for.

    The apostrophe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,202 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes


    "Literally"

    People who use this should be literally shot!

    "I'm so hungry, I'm literally starving".

    No you're not, you literal fcukwit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,385 ✭✭✭✭D'Agger

    Never heard of that one myself....were they crunchy on the outside yet smooth on the inside or something - that was a great ad - ARRRRRMADILLOS :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,163 ✭✭✭✭Liam Byrne


    "staycation" and other such made-up words.

    Then there's the usual suspects here on boards, such as "could of".

    Marketing bull**** like "essential" and "you need this".......I've survived this long with out them, and I've just been put off your product due to blatant fraudulent misrepresentation.

    If I were to list all of the ones that make me cringe, boards would crash.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade


    I hate the word 'no'. As is;

    "No, I won't have sex with you."

    "Sorry, no. The bar's closed."

    "No, I won't deliver the paper to your storeroom."

    and

    "No. You can't eat my last chip."
