    I cannot STAND this phrase, for exactly this reason. My husband (soon-to-be-ex, I will add) used this phrase to explain his 6-month affair with an "escort." It makes me cringe every time I hear someone using it; even though, yes, I can understand the practicality of it. It's simply too popular currently.

    Yours is definitely a situation where the nature of “it” brings something that must be borne in mind. It’s one thing if someone uses the phrase to talk about the company policy regarding reserved parking spaces. Using it to attempt to conceal or downplay an affair is a different matter. After all, that molehill is STILL a molehill. You may not need a vehicle to get around it, but it will still wreck a garden. It’s not nonexistent or something less.

    People that overuse "babe" when referring to a significant other. Especially if they do it when they're mad.


    "Babe, you're loading the dishwasher all wrong, babe. Gosh, you are so stupid, babe. I just want to punch you in the throat sometimes, babe."


    Also anyone over the age of 20 who says "legit," "totes" or "jelly" (as opposed to jealous) in a non-ironic way. Extra hatred if they combine any of those three in a phrase like "I was totes jelly of her legit haircut." You go die now, ok?

    I totally agree with the "babe". I see "thanks babe" all the time online and it just grates on my ears. LOL.

    I hate when people say "I need to itch my arm" rather than scratch.
    You are not making your arm itch. The correct word is scratch.
    Major pet peeve of mine!

    "Like", as in, "I was, like, running down the road when I bumped into my friend." I sometimes say it and hate myself for that.

    I'm sorry, and no offence, but nom nom nom is sometimes the legit way to express the that something is moist and tasty. Know what I mean? At the end of the day, I literally could care less what other people hate, seriously, this is my journey. But...I guess it is what it is, I'll just continue on in Beast Mode and continue winning, while all you haters are gonna hate, more pacifically hate on me. Just sayin' I'm keeping it real here...but whatevs!

    KTHXBAI.


    YOU. ARE. AWESOME!

    Comprehensive _____________.

    Refering to oneself as P-Dawg or G-Dawg etc.

    And using the word "inconceivable" improperly. http://youtu.be/OHVjs4aobqs :laugh:

    "finna" in place of "fixing to" but even "fixing to" bothers me...

    LOL! Had to laugh. I'm from the south and say "ya'll" as in "you all" "fixin'to" as in "fixing to" which really means "going to" and "bless your (his, her...) heart"--not said sarcastically, but really heartfelt
    Can't help it and wouldn't change it:)

    Oh... can't stand "That being said....."

    "WalmartS" (How many are you visiting exactly?)
    "I have no ideal" (of grammar? Obviously, no.)
    Pronouncing "library" as lie berry.
    Referring to a driver's license, marriage license, etc. as "Them" or "They".
    Your instead of You're.
    Who cares? (Well, me. That's who. :smile: )

    Love it!! Thanks, OP, for this thread. I am burning calories with belly laughs!!

    Lately, using conjugation. It's=It is. Don't=Do not. I'll=I will.
    Trying to cure myself of it as well. Take back the english language to the old art that it once was! :smile:

    I dislike:

    When people say 'expresso' instead of 'espresso'
    The word "succulent". I don't know why but that word just disgusts me.
    The word "crumby" I have a problem with it ever since I read The Catcher in the Rye.

    On another note, I think that 'moist' may be one of the most hated words in the English language. I have a good friend who lists her least favourite words as "moist", "panties", "wad", and "guava". So, since my sister and I are jerks, we randomly leave her messages on her voicemail, or text her saying things like "Oh no, I've moistened my panties. Would you mind handing me that wad of guava?" Or "moist wad of panties!"

    I'm a good friend. In case you were wondering. :p

    The word "hun" drives me insane! I work as a caregiver and a lot of staff call the clients hun. I just want to slap them! If your 20 you should not be calling an 80 year old hun! Their name is Mr. or Mrs. followed by their surname, you may call a client by their first name if they say that is ok.

    Another is YOLO, I do not like this word. Where did it come from? Most people who say it sound like idiots.

    I have a friend that says cray-cray all the time, and he is another person I would like to slap. There are Crayfish and there are crazy people, but I'm sorry to break it to you there is no such thing as cray-cray!
