Folks. Using it once in a conversation is fine. But using it chronically is annoying.

I hate the F bomb. It makes me crazy. Seriously, you're so uncreative that you can't find a less offensive word to describe your feelings?

"I just don't have time to exercise," but you have time to spend $$$ on weekly nutritionist visits. Newsflash: with zero exercise at age 45, you'll never get any weight off, no matter how well you eat. You just won't.

Ahhh me too!!! My husband actually says it all the time, and I say the same thing... It just sounds like the person saying it thinks they really have done so much.


"No problem" is just as bad. Who said there was a problem?

Nit picking again.


So when you offer something to somebody (broccoli to your kids, candy to your coworker) and they respond "I'm fine" instead of "no, thank you," you don't get just a teensy irritated that they can't, you know, bother to actually thank you for your effort and/or generosity?


No, this does not bother me at all. I don't sweat this shit.


And you obviously don't sweat the cursing shit either. You're lucky, because you'll just be oblivious when civilization and civility, as we know them, come to an end


Right. How I speak in real life is how I type responses on an anonymous forum. You caught me!

This thread sounds like most of you regularly talk to people in Appalachia. I expected more of the annoying business-speak:

"We would like to discuss issues around cost of benefits." (Around?? You would like to discuss the cost of benefits."

"We focus on the transaction space." (Space? Your expertise is in transactions!)

"Butt"

"Sorry" said in an insincere way

"Ya know?" Used at the end of many sentences

Irregardless

Can I ask you something?

I mean it is fine for you, but for me....

My child does x, y, z [brag, brag, brag]

Mommy? Mommy? Mommy? Mommy?

Would you like to buy some girl scout cookies?

Would you like to come to my [fill in sell at home party name here]?

"period of time..."
"the fact that..."

Extra words. Just fillers.

When people say "do good" when "do well" is appropriate.
