    "I'm not racist, but" + racist comment.

    Should definitely start a counter movement by following it with a non-racist sentence ending.

    "I'm not racist, but I don't like the taste of diet coke."

    That's consistency.

    Hahaha I love this idea.. "I'm not racist, but it's really cold out!"

    I halfway feel bad for posting cuz someone earlier said they didn't like the phrase "amazing" so uh..... sorrry in advance lol

    I absolutely cannot stand when people talk like they are typing a text message to their friends. I understand in a world of 140 characters or less, when you have something long to say, you will abbreviate. But seriously, did your English teacher (or insert whatever they are called outside of America) really teach you that it's ok to say "I-D-K, my B-F-F Jill" out loud as an acceptable sentence???? Or another example "B-T-W I defs wanna go out T-N" or "obvi" etc etc I'm sure you all get the point.

    It drives me bonkers. For real.

    ^^^^^ this!!! many times over!!

    Not a phrase per se, but the use of the word "literally" as in "I literally wanted to die". Did you? Did you really want to die? No, I thought not!!!!!
    And the fact that when I use the word, I have to preface it by saying that I mean the word literally, quite literally.

    This and "surreal" It was just a "surreal experience" ugh...way overused and half the time I'm not sure people even know what it means when they use it.

    Seriously? (No, it's a big joke) GAWWWWWW!

    Also the phrase: Get Busy Living or Get Busy Dying. WTF does that mean?

    I also hate: He drank the Kool Aid!!! So stupid!!!

    I hate people who SAY "LOL" instead of actually laughing. . What's wrong with you?!?!

    "Fair enough" also drives me crazy, because it's usually said by people who are willing to fight for nothing.

    It's not a verbal phrase but rather a phrase people use online...

    SMH

    I hate that!

    First time I saw that phrase it was on my friends facebook and I knew she and her husband were going through some rough times and the first thing that popped into my head when I saw SMH was Single Mother Hood and I thought she got a divorce. Totally made an a donkey's behind out of myself on her wall, hahaha :P

    when people write in spanish and use "K" instead of que...

    when people write a lot as "alot"

    The phrase duces when someone is saying bye. For some reason it just irritates the hell out of me.

    and the phrase "backwards racism"

    Example:
    Non-caucasian person: I hate white people
    Caucasian person: Dude, you are backwards racist.

    No.. it isn't..... it is just a racist. Racism is- hatred or intolerance of another race or other races. Not caucasians being racist toward other races. UGH..

    When someone laughs and at the end of the chuckling they do that weird high pitched sigh thing and follow it with "I love it". Oy...

    P.S. I LOVE hearing/saying "That's what she said"! Makes my day everytime. LOL Sorry! :tongue:

    Also, when someone says they did a 360*, to indicate they made a drastic change. A 360* is a full rotation, 180* is turning to face the opposite direction. I cringe and laugh inside my head every time I hear that.

    I get sick of people quoting Marilyn Monroe. She was a horrible role model for women. She banged a married man and acted like a dittzy blonde for money.

    I agree! I don't understand that either.

    I know a man who told his 15 year old daughter that her role model should be marilyn munroe. Seriously?? She is an icon of size 14 beauty, but that is where it ends. Her life was a mess.
