So don't I. It's a New England thing and it confuses me every time. When I first moved here I had no idea what it meant. Instead of saying, "I agree" or "so do I", many say "so don't I". Wait...so do you agree with me or not?0

Happy holidays. It's Merry Christmas. MERRY FKN CHRISTMAS
I say Merry Christmas, too & recently have gotten silence in return a couple of times. Oh, no... the horror that wishing someone a happy or merry anything can be taken as offense in these PC times is a bit silly.
If someone wished me a Happy Chanaukah, I'd just say it in return... no need to jump up & down, screaming that I don't follow that religion. Be happy anyway!
Merry Christmas!4 -

Yesterday, I was forced to endure a 2 hour conference call with a presenter that ended every sentence with "right?"
Certainly you've heard this before...right?
Whenever someone is...like...trying to make a point...right?
Every single statement suddenly becomes a question...right?
It gets to the point...right?...where you don't even notice the other words because all you hear is right...right?
So you're just staring out the window...right?
You're thinking the only way to relieve this agony is to hurl yourself through the glass...right?
But then you glance at the clock...right?
And...like...it's almost lunch time...right?
So, you decide to tough it out for just a few more minutes...right?
You think of all of the motivational phrases you've read on MFP...right?
Take a deep breath...focus...you're almost there...right?
Finally, the presentation ends...right?
The speaker asks if there are any questions...right?
Some idiot at the other end of the table...right?...makes a comment about the presentation and the speaker replies, "That's right!"
At this point, in a desperate effort to save what’s left of your sanity...right?...you just get up and leave the room.

This is probably a common one, but “I could care less” gets under my skin.
I also cringe when I hear people use babyish words, for example saying baggie or bootie instead of bag or boot.3 -

When the outgoing message says “I’ll get back to you at my earliest convenience”. Really? So, you’ll get back to me when it’s convenient for you? Lol They are either extremely honest or confused. lol.1
