Slang/Chav Talk you hate.

StereoLove

I don't think there is another thread like this, so here goes.

What slang do you hate to hear, be it D4, knacker talk or slang in general?
For me it's 'kiid'(Spelt intentionally with two 'i's) and 'petal'

I was once punched in the face by a knacker and he called me a knacker while doing it, but he pronounced the "k".

Whenever I hear some woman talking about her "hubby", I picture some poor hen-pecked bastard, who hasn't managed to get a word in since he said "I do".

I hate people using the word Chav in Ireland.

There is no such thing as an Irish chav, we have many names for the people you are trying to describe but Chav is not and never will be an Irish word to describe them.

It is an English word to describe people not held in the highest of esteem by their local estate in Essex, Engerlund.

The word 'chav' taken straight from British television in the past year or two by Irish people who have nothing better to do than watch, and integrate into their lives, the latest terminology and trends in British popular/knacker culture.

Edit: oh, and not forgetting "high street"! :rolleyes:

Up-n-atom!

+1 on the use of chav. Scumbag, scobe etc are perfectly acceptable alternatives, and don't make a judgement on whether the person is working class or not, like chav seems to.

Also hate the word 'massive' - loads of my Dublin friends use it. The first time one of them said it I was really confused...those trainers are big? But you take a small size!

:D It reminds me of Ali G or something.

Ick.

It sounds so god damn....needy.

Also people who constantly talk about the person they're with build a mental image of themselves being lost lonely souls blundering through life UNTIL yaaay!! they met their saviour....i mean 'OH'. If i was with someone & they called me the OH i'd be kind of embarrassed.

Your Other Half? What were you half a person before you were saved?:pac:

"Give us a pint of Heino" - fúck off!

"Aw man, yeah man I know man, plain stupid man"

"Yeh shtaaaartin!"

"Aw lads, fukn luv Bob Marley and me Johnny blue" - general skanger talk

Hate the following slang words:

"Tinnie" for a can of beer.

"Score" for €20

"Tincan" for a twin-cam

"yoyo's" for Euros

Im not to "up" on the whole D4 saying as where I live Im generally surrounded by scummers so can only relate to them

In my neck of the woods, "Innit" and "bruv" at the end of every sentence are what irritates me most. I look down my nose at people who talk like that.

When irish (or european) people use the word suck, as in, "thats sucks"..

not yet

Dude..... fcuk off
me gaff....fcuk off
and the pudding for christmas....double fcuk off

Probably not knackery but the words savage and beast really bother me.

Also when people ad 'age' to the end of a sentence - was sitting in over Christmas with some doritos and my sisters boyfriend turned around and commented that the salsa was some serious dipage.

"Awesome" is used far too often to describe things that are clearly far from it.

Jesus Christ descending from heaven for Judgement Day, would surely be awesome. Glee is not.

I don't like people using the word "movie", in Ireland it's a film.

I like 'movie' instead of 'film' 'Hi' instead of 'Hello', 'Merry Christmas' instead of 'Happy Christmas' and much else because through the years I've heard very English people enunciate their shock at these Americanisms creeping into English. That makes me happy.

I'm also all in favour of going to the 'shopping mall' and 'store' because we might as well just copy the Yanks directly rather than wait for the Brits to do so and then copy the Brits!

In most parts its a filum.

Legend is another annoying one.

Also when people respond to everything with 'No way'

'Did you see on the news some little kid ran into a trolley and fell over?'

'no way'

'way'

What i hate more than skanger talk is when middle Class dopes with the TV3 accent use it! Like that Spin103.8 ad when those two saps say "Deadly Buzz", it really grinds my gears.

That's not slang, that's Yorkshire dialect (but it still sounds awful).

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I get the distinct impression that you don't like the British.
