Sometimes I like to compound that with "irregardlessly"

How about the use of the terms "hubby" or "wifey" in general. Both of those rub me the wrong way.

Or when a wife and husband call each other mommy or daddy

I keep piggy backing on posts here but also "Nothing tastes better than skinny feels". I hate that one.

Irregardless of what you think, I ain't got no time for that.

When a family member/loved one dies and someone tells you 'they're in a better place'. Makes me want to tell this person I wish THEY were in that same 'better place'.

It's even worse for a parent whose lost a child.

Yes! I just had this convo with some friends this morning. As a parent that has lost a child, there's no better place for her but here with her family. Period. And don't tell me "he has a plan". His plan sucks.

I've been guilty of that one... I just never know the right thing to say.

A number of years ago a relative and her husband lost their child only a couple weeks after his birth and one of the biggest aholes I've ever met (family 'friend') told her "It just wasn't meant to be. God needed him more."

You may not believe it but what if they do ?
They can't express there love ?

Sometimes in a time of loss it's better to not say much and just let them know you are very sorry and you will be there for them. If I don't believe it, then I don't want someone telling me that I should believe it as I am burying my child.

"just reaching out to you..."

What corporate communications genius came up with that one? You can follow up with me, check back with me, get back with me, but if you try to "reach out to me", I'm gonna cut off your *kitten* hand!

Or "in regards to". How about plain old "regarding"...

People who know you would know if you believe or not .. then they would know what to say .

The people closest to me yes, but in that situation you start hearing from people you haven't talked to in 10 years. I know the intent is good and kind but it got completely overwhelming and people say some really dumb stuff in those situations. Hence, keep it short and sweet unless you are close to that person.

I heard this at least a hundred times when my daughter died. No he didn't need her more than we did. I also heard "at least you can have more". You don't know that for sure and even if I do have more, they will never replace the one lost.
