    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.

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

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

    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.

    I used to do that and hated it... it was my 'uhm' :pac:

    "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."

    This thread is pretty random

    • IMO... Of course it's your opinion, so why say it?
    • IMHO... Does this mean that IMO might not have been honest? Or are you now proclaiming to be humble, and before you were not?

    "Chillaxing"

    :mad:
    Are you not a fan of all blended together words or is it just that one which annoys you? Surely you don't hate the "spork"?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 164 ✭✭SportsGreatest


    "Soccer." That word makes me cringe. Everytime I hear it, the sound of an American saying it pops to mind. It's football!

    "Snog." Most of you probably use this, but I hate the word. It's "meet" these days.

    "That's a bummer." This just sounds so stupid to me.
    The flogging to death of the word "LIKE", like.

    Indeed, I am guilty of that. Everyone [young] I know is to be honest.

    We don't actually like know we're doing it like, it just like comes naturally. Honestly, that's how we talk... :rolleyes:

    Tiffany Granath would be impressed with this foxy statement.

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

    We had a lecturer last year who managed to include that word on average 3 times per sentence. I kid you not. It was so incredibly painful to listen to. The lads in my course counted at least 200 times he said it in one lecture and that was before they lost count.

    I'm gonna have nightmares of him and that word tonight now.
