    "pour into" when it's either religious stuff or MLM speak

    "I try to take an extra hour per week to pour into my sales team"
    "I hope my daughter has wonderful youth leaders to pour into her at church camp"

    It freaks me out.

    "My bad". It's the furthest you can get from actual apology.

    #

    ETA: sometimes the # is fine, but when it is 653 hash tags for one picture or comment, it gets my goat. That, and if you're going to make a really long multi-word hash tag, don't put spaces. That just irks me. #I get irked (see, annoying right)

    Divorce is NOT an option.
    - I’m not saying it shouldn’t be the last resort or final option, but I’m sorry divorce is always an option.

    When something is broken you fix it, you don’t throw it away.
    - Well, how about I say some things just CAN’T be fixed and is simply a waste of my time to even bother. Respect yourself.

    Never give up on someone.
    - Sometimes giving up on someone gives them no choice but to change.

    Real woman have curves
    - Well I guess I’m not a real woman.

    On that note, you're not a real woman until...
    - ummm I thought to be a real woman I had to simply exist, but again, I guess I’m not real.

    I noticed that a lot of these seem to be about divorce and men.....now I understand your "size doesn't matter" comment better ;)

    “Cool beans”- I just totally hate it

    “Easy-peasy” I’m convinced that must be part of some evil incantation or something because it stirs up a violent rage in my mind 🤬

    Also, “No offense” I don’t think I’ve ever heard that spoken by someone who wasn’t saying something offensive. The general translation seems to be “I’m a massive jerk but because I said ‘no offense’ then if you get offended you’ll look like the bad guy instead of me. That’s how much of a jerk I am 🙄”

    I say no offence when I don't say something offensive, I'm just aware that there are a lot of people out there who seem to like to take offence about everything and everyone.
