    When people begin a sentence with "got"

    "got a tablet today"
    "got a glass of milk just now"

    When non-Italians, or worse yet, Italians, over-do the stereotypical words,

    "aaaaaaaaaaaaah fagettaboutit"

    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah stfu.

    Oh and that was delish - I hate the word, it's not a word.
    I hate that word so bad it's unbelievable. Rachael Ray started the trend with it, and for that, I hate her too.

    ATM Machine, PIN Number, LCD Display, 6am in the morning.

    UGH.

    I say PIN number all the time and never ever gave it a second thought. Thanks.

    All of these are funny :smile: I'll add women calling their boobs "the girls".

    I love my "girls"

    I hate when people say "At the end of the day". At the end of the day I go to sleep, that's all nothing else happens.

    I can tolerate hearing these, but I can not stand seeing them in writing

    Gonna, shoulda, coulda, woulda

    And even worse is
    Using "of" instead of "have".

    "I should of gone to the dentist" or "He could of won a million dollars".

    there were too many to "quote" so I agree with:

    Baby mama
    tender (college roomie used to say "oh that's so tender!" instead of "that's so sweet" GAG)
    chillax
    twerk
    YOLO


    I also can't stand the term "BBW".......

    Gesundheit annoys me. Just say God bless you when someone sneezes.

    Also the word used as in I used to do whatever it is you did before. That bugs me.

    and

    Veggies - grow up and say vegetables.

    Oh and that was delish - I hate the word, it's not a word.

    Okay, I can admit this here. It the internet. I have never had the guts to fess up to anyone IRL about this.
    It BUGS me when people say bless you when I sneeze, even more when I hiccuo (apparently my hiccups have sounded like sneezes to people, weird)
    I don't say anything because I know they think its respectful but to me - its weird!
    Why do the need feel the need to bless me? Do they know where this stupid phrase derived from? If they do and they still say it, that's even more weird.

    "Kicks like a mule" but having never been kicked by any sort of equine... ever.

    "Rambunctious yahoos" ... the forties were a long time ago.

    Yes. Or "detail-orientated."

    ATM Machine, PIN Number, LCD Display, 6am in the morning.


    Redundancy. Word.

    Also, crotch.

    Rather than get muddled with big words, "used to didn't" has been in my vocabulary since I was a kid. And it comes out as "ustadidnt" all one word. It's part of my hillbilly charm. :)

    For me, it's "boss". Growing up, if you called everyone "boss", it meant that you had done time. I move to Arizona, and its "what can I get you, boss?", "how you doing today, boss?" Can't stand it!

    "On the rag" - especially irritates me when men say it
    "F'real" - what? What did you say? I don't think that was English.
    "Continuating" - uh, that's not a word either
    "Dudette" - Okay, dude never bugged me, but this is odd
    "For Serial?" - Cereal? Or Serial? Either way, that doesn't make sense.
    "Catch you later" - Okay, this doesn't really bug me. But, I laugh on the inside a little. Heaven forbid there ever come a time when you have to catch me. I hope you live.
    "Wha'ever" - This one bugs me when my 7 yr old can't stop saying it. Gah!

    My husband and I constantly debate about the correct term for putting the AC in the house at a cooler temperature. Is it "turning up the AC" or "turning down the AC?"
    Turn it up = Cranking up the Air Conditioning to a higher function for a cooler house
    Turn it down = Turning down the thermostat to a lower temperature (which cranks the AC)
    Which is it?
