    Wow, I pretty much agree on all these. I also can't deal with (although it's not urban) "ginormous."

    Also, I heard 2 people recently say "awesome sauce," and it made me contemplate violence.

    It seems like every celebrity now thinks EVERYTHING is "AMAZING".....I HATE that! It was soooo amazing....she was soooo amazing.......everything was AMAZZZZZING.....Yeah....SHUT UP! lol

    YES!!!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO true!! I was just talking about that word is sooo overly used lately to one of my friends...AMAZING...

    I overheard a girl on the train say a play was "amazing" more times than necessary. I promise it was 4-5x.

    I would have punched her in the back of the head and said.....Wow! THAT was AMAZING! LMAO! Im kinda mean, though, lol.

    Actually I like that one - going to try that out at work tomorrow. What would be a suitable context?

    conversate...why make up a word when there is one that already exists?

    Was just talking about this the other day!
    And it was used more than once and in a professional setting, that I was beginning to think maybe I had missed the memo!

    My top cringe phrase though is "hey shawty" if you call me shorty one more time I'm gonna kick your *kitten*!!!

    Shawty.

    Okay..?

    My boyfriend asked me once "Why do all these people nowadays sing about Sharlene? Who is she and what makes her so special?" I wasn't sure what he meant so he clarified "You know, like in that song...Sharlene's like a melody in my head" I about died when I realized what he meant.


    OMFG that just LIKE madz me LIKE ROFL! That was AWESOMELY funny BRO. :wink:

    No really, that was hella funny. :laugh:

    I gave it 110% or 120% or any figure more than 100%. How can you give more than 100%. It is really annoying!

    Hahaha. Assuming you mean, "awesome sauce," I've heard it as an exclamation on its own, or as an adjective. "...this awesome sauce thread..."

    Please don't do it!:laugh:

    Down south here all the older black women are "Fixing" to go to the store or to church or whatever, it's so "Epic", don't you think so BOO ?

    Older people from southern states of ANY ethnicity say "fixing". Thanks. See Paula Deen.

    Amen.... For a long time I didnt know it wasnt actually gramatically correct. I still use it anyway.

    "F*ckin-A"

    I can't stand when people add extra letters to words when they are posting on Facebook, etc.

    "I'm going to the storeeeeeeeee"
    or
    "I have the best boyfriendddd everrrrrrrr"

    It makes me want to punch them.

    I love the word amazing.......I'll refrain from calling the word "amazing" amazing, but I really like the word xD I'll make sure to be careful the next time I speak. :indifferent:

    I'm from Kansas, and a lot of people say that...except that it's ''fixin'' and not ''fixing.'' I'm guilty of this on occasion though...Anyways, my little brother (almost 13) says "that's pimpin'," or he'll call some random person a "pimp" or "wannabe pimp." Last time he said that I just looked at him and asked if he knew what a pimp was...he didn't, and being that amazing (hehehe) older sister I am, I informed him. :laugh: He doesn't use that word as much anymore.

    Ok, one more I have to add is in texting, when people write "kk." Ok, "k" is an abbreviation of ok, but how the f does "kk" make any kind of sense? One more "k," and it's a hate group. In general, that kills me--when a slang term is used supposedly to abbreviate something, and then you end up with the same number of syllables as before. Like someone mentioned, "omg."

    Ok, I know I sound like a nerd, but oh well.

    I wasn't even aware of this hatred (or over use of) "I know, right?" but some advice collumnist said this is a good retort to people who point obvious things like, "your husband is a foot taller than you." I thought it was a perfect response, but now I know...
    I hate the expression "brain fart" hate it hate it hate it.

    "My Bad" ... that one drives me crazy!

    I also don't like Baby Daddy/Momma and ...

    I hate seeing FML on anything. I am a big believer in karma/that you get what you put out there/you reap what you sew, etc. "FML" is just asking for misery to aim straight for your life ...

    Haha.. Reminds me.. When that song "Tipsy" first came out, I swore it sounded like, "Err-ah body in the club gettin' t*ts.." I thought, "They can say that on the radio?!"
