"next steps"

People who use texting abbreviations in ordinary conversation: OMG, WTF, PITA, etc.

There must be something wicked good about Massholes - they seem to run for president about every ten years or so.

you are cramming "whole" in the middle of the word another.


I have to admit, I love this expression. There is no substitute. Like "that's a whole 'nother can of worms!" or "well, she's a whole 'nother kinda crazy!" I find myself using it in conjunction with other equally annoying expressions

"We're pregnant."

The use of "do" in place of another verb. For example,

"We do Thai on Friday nights."
"I don't do Georgetown on the weekends." Ew.

Not an expression but this: "incentivize." Not a word.


+1 on the "we're pregnant." Only one of you can be pregnant, and it's not your husband.

I like the phrase, actually, but probably because of this factoid: In the U.S., to table something means to take an issue off the table, but in Canada it means to put an issue on the table.

I am going to enjoy saying ALL of these things over the next few weeks, just to see who I can annoy!

Ma'am (so insulting and backwards)




I hate when people say "nice to meet you" when I've met them before.


This is the exact reason I always say nice to see you. Many times I can't remember people I have met before, especially those I see once a year.
