Words Which Annoy You Intensely

[Whistlin' Dixie]

People who say (look) or (listen) when they are explaining something usually ex football pundits
i don't know where it orginated from but it seems to be spreading through media etc and it gets on my t!ts
little jumped up twits thinking they need to emphasize the point with a air of all knowing smugness
and get rid of those fecking beards and skinny jeans your stupid middle aged [Poor language removed]

Yes. Middle-aged ponces in skinny jeans (Usually in gaudy colours) with cuffed ankles, plimsoll-type trabbs, corduroy jackets, and their hair swept back and in pony tails with their poncey yibbit beards....Beginning every sentence with the word 'So'.....

Where's ISIS for these types?

Absolutely, when said to mean yes.

I do that all the time, haha. Usually some sort of fake reassurance that I will do something that some asshole pawns off on me at work.

"I could care less" is absolutely obnoxious to me as well. I am not sure what the problem with "addicting" is. Or do you mean in the way people say they are addicted to stupid [Poor language removed]? Example from this morning: "I am soooooo addicted to these peppermint mocha lattes." Very American and very annoying.

'Addicting' is used in the place of 'Addictive'. It makes absolutely no sense. 'Oh, I love XYZ, it's so addicting'.

I've only ever seen it written on the net, mind. Never heard it spoken.

That should be banned.

" Whatever " said by an adult with arms crossed and a head that goes from side to side - probably to make it harder to punch.

"Speak to the hand" is annoying as hell.

"Speak to the hand" is annoying as hell.

Especially if it wins the argument.
