Expressions you cannot stand

[Anonymous]

When people refer to their dog as "a rescue." Somehow saying you got him at the animal shelter or that he's a mutt isn't good enough. You have to tell me what a good person you are because you rescued him.

"I am blessed"

Annoys the hell out of me when an award recipient at a ceremony or award show starts their speech with, "I want to thank God, because without him none of this would be possible, he is great and I couldn't have done it without him"

Hehe.. That's exactly what a bunch of Olympic runners, both men and women, said in their post-run interviews. "I am blessed" and "God is a good guy since he made it all possible for me". And no, I don't have 'issues', it really sounded weird.

It makes my DH tense up every time. We are from the midwest. He is from the northeast.

Ew. I'm from the midwest and this sounds nasty to me!

The trend in blogging to write in phrases instead of sentences. Such as:

"I went to the store. Which is something I never do. And it was fun."

Also the annoying cutesy use of question marks in blogging:

"And this girl? Totally rocked it."

Klassic Kleaners or whatever is annoying as well as trashy. But "klassy" used ironically, to refer to something that really isn't classy, doesn't bother me. In fact DD picked up somewhere the expression "klassy with a k" which she uses ironically.

What's amazing to me is this is 19 pages of a whole lot of annoying stuff and there isn't a ton duplicated! I don't mean that in a bad way. This is a great list of crap people say!

I appreciate the faith and trust in God that many people have, as well as their appreciation of his goodness and the power of his presence.

Eh. Shutup.

I appreciate people letting me know they believe in Sky Fairies and Cosmic Muffins so I can steer clear of them and their imaginary friends.

Yes, I appreciate this too.

I agree that it's a major annoyance. Ever since I was little I remember thinking "god squad nutter" and statements like the above created one less fan in me.

What's annoying about saying "I'm blessed" is that implies you have divine favor with God. And that others don't. It sounds smug.

Why don't you just say "I'm fortunate" ?

Like a pack of wolves would eat on a carcass all week?
