    When people say the abbreviated form of something when the actual word or phrase has the same number of syllables. Like saying "o-m-g" when it's not any shorter. Or saying stfu as "ste-foo."

    "I been" or "'I be" instead of "I've been"

    "for a minute" as in "Girl, that man been gone for a minute" meaning a while or a longer period of time. A minute makes it sound short.

    first time I ever heard the minute thing, I really got confused. A guy said he had been working there for a minute, then got mad when I treated him like a new employee.

    Anything to do with the following:
    Swag
    Yolo
    Irregardless
    Saying the letters of commonly used chat slang individually
    Cray cray
    Dat
    Dawg
    FYI
    Retarded
    Baby momma
    Baby daddy
    Big boned (i've seen you x-rays your bones look fine)
    fo sho (for sure)

    I'm very guilty of using "country" expressions such as "warsh (wash) and ya'll"



    I guess I hate words a lot more then the expressions most people use.

    My new favorite: "We're going to need a bigger *kitten* to handle all this ****" I use it all the time now.

    Also...words shortened for the sake of trendiness...like "Oh she's just jelly" (as in jealous) and girls adding in the word "so" unnecessarily like "are you SOOOO excited?!"

    "jelly" is new to me. will have to use that! : )

    "You can't have your cake and eat it too," well, what the hell am I getting the cake for if I can't eat it? That's like saying you can buy a new car but you can't drive it.

    "Na'mean?" No. Stop it. Especially if you're saying it like that, and you all know what I'm talking about. It makes me want to rip out someones vocal chords and bury them in a pit of sand.

    I see so many people on facebook find stupid ways to say "Happy Birthday". I'm good with "Happy B-day" or sentences, such as "Hope you're having a great birthday!" or "Happy 21st!"

    Those are all good.

    But when people say "Happppps to the birthdayyyyizzle" I'm like WTF are you saying!? Happs to the Birthday!? Drives. Me. Insane. :explode:

    "Going forward" ...I could puke over that self-important blurb. Also, "....My passion is________" Please don't use the word passion like that, please.

    My boss says this all the time, and "Ask the question" Me and my boyfriend had a conversation about this yesterday, all the things we hate our bosses saying.

    "I seen it". Makes my hand twitch and want to smack someone.

    Oh yea. It is used a lot where I come from. Drives me nuts. My daughter used to use it, until I would yell. YOU SAW IT, YOU DIDN'T SEEN IT. Got on her nerves. Now she corrects others. My work here is done.

    Whilst I am in the mood I hate all people that use 'text talk'. Such as gr8 and use 'no' instead of 'know' because it's quicker. Why is everyone in such a rush? I actually won't reply to anyone who uses text talk. In the old days when text had a character restriction of about 60 characters you could understand people using 'R' and 'U' occasionally but there is no need anymore so STOP IT.

    'Basically' or 'At the end of the day' or 'like' 'touch base' (arggg!!) ' or ' If I'm honest' (cos you're not usually?).

    Lots of people start a sentence with 'so'. Seems weird to me.

    "I didn't do it on purpose."

    Okay, then it was reckless or careless; if it was on purpose, you should be in jail or a mental institution.

    I hate when people use the word "ignorant" to mean "rude."
