    People who are lazy in conversation and say "thingy" or "like", or "kinda thing". JUST SAY THE WORDS DAMMIT!

    "All I know is..."

    If you can sum up everything you know about the topic at hand in 1 sentence, save yourself the breath!

    my mom says,"vica (instead of vice) versa"
    my dad says, "at any rate" a hundred times a day
    "irregardless" isn't a word
    "fall down six times, get up seven." that is impossible, fall down six times? you need to get up six times!
    i'm sure there is more, i just can't think of any ...

    "throwing shade"
    "clap back"
    "shutting down the haters"

    Sorry, just read an online article about Megan Markle and it appeared to have been penned by an angsty teen! I can't believe it qualified as "journalism"!

    Anyone using the pet name 'hun.' To me, to others, it doesn't matter; it feels soooooo condescending to me!

    Pacific instead of specific
    I seen it - no you saw it
    Ax a question - it’s ask
    On fleek - just no
    Clap back - what happened to it just being called a come back?

    “I’m not a *kitten*, I’m just honest”. No, there is a big difference between being tactfully honest, when appropriate, and just spewing nasty comments.
    God, yeah. "I'm just being honest" isn't a free pass to be an *kitten* (although many think it is). :D Add that one to my list actually.

    I hate it too. I feel like where I live, there's a big divide between people who would say "hun" in any & every situation and people who would die before they would say it to anyone, even family members. I'm in the second camp.

    Me and the Hubs
    Or worse, Me and the Hubster

    First of all, it’s “the Hubs/Hubster AND I” and secondly I don’t think they’ve even invented word for how very much I hate that nickname for husband 🤬

    Depends. The hubster and I did a funky thing last night OR last night a funky thing was done to me and the hubster.
