Can't you remember the person's name or role in the bereaved person's life (e.g your mother, your brother)?


Wut


Can't you say "I was sorry to hear that your mother passed away", instead of saying "'I'm sorry for your loss", as if you can't remember if it was your friend's mother, father or investment portfolio that suffered a loss.


DP. One of my biggest pet peeves is people who look for bad intentions where none exist.


You probably grew up with this saying. I didn't. When you are introduced to it as an adult, it seems impersonal.

I'm not alone in finding it impersonal:

I hate hearing adults asking anyone over toilet-training age if they “need to go potty”, or referring to themselves in the same terms.


Just wondering if you’re British?


Yes I am!

Ironic statement.

There really aren't any leftists in America. Maybe a handful. But MAGA extremists who hate our country are about 20% of the population.

You are blind. And wrong.

It is what it is. (No, you’re just apathetic or not thinking)

“Life isn’t fair” used in anyway other than to explain why some people are born into wealth and some aren’t, or why some people die young or get cancer and others don’t. It’s is NOT an excuse for adults being unfair. My face turns red hot when I hear this used this way.

There's at least one DCUM poster who uses this and it is so annoying.


It's "amrite" not "amirite"

Getitrite.



Actually, it's not, dumbass. Look stuff up before you try to correct someone. Your way doesn't even make sense.

From dictionary.com:

amirite
or am·i·right
[ am-ahy-rahyt ]

an informal variant spelling of the phrase “am I right” used to elicit agreement or solidarity at the end of an observation, or used facetiously to undermine or mock the preceding observation:
So, basically, my husband is the luckiest man on Earth, amirite.
College admissions essays are exercises in creative writing, amirite?!

Agree.

Go signal your virtue to someone else and stop wasting my time on nonsense.

Rockstar for minor things like the babysitter staying 15 minutes later.

No it means your demand for me works for you but not for me, that is, I don’t care about your opinion.

I got you (pronounced "chu" instead of you)

One of the people I manage says this all the time when I ask her to do something.

People who order things by saying “I’ll do . . . “. Can’t you just say “I would like a blueberry muffin” or something? When and why did “do” become a thing? It’s incorrect and weird.
