    Can I ask you something?

    Ummm is saying no going to keep you from asking me? Didn't think so, so just ASK! :grumble:

    I usually say, "You just did." Which is equally annoying, or maybe slightly more so.
    My comment is usually, "You just did, but I'll give you a second question because I like you!"

    "I could care less" IT'S COULDN'T!! COULDN'T!! IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO SAY COULD!

    Ignore him after the could care bit though, even I think he takes it a bit far with the hold the fort things xD

    THIS!
    Also when a couple or guy says "We're pregant" Seriously SHE"S pregnant...you're not carrying around an extra load for 9 months and than pushing another human being out of you as the grand finale pal.

    It's not really a phrase so much as a grammatical error, but... "I seen," drives me absolutely bananas. No, you didn't "seen," you freaking "saw."

    Oh - and "should of." It's "should have."

    And St. Patty's Day. It's "Paddy." St. Patrick was not a girl.

    this one was probably said already but "muscle weighs more than fat" NO it doesnt. a pound is a pound.
    Muscle does weigh more than fat by volume, and that's exactly what people mean when they say that.

    Haha, I hate people that say they hate muscle weighs more than fat! It just makes you look up yersel, because people mean by mass not weight, and they're correct!

    i suggest you look it up, you may come across lots of useful information. :smile:

    A other people have said repeatedly to you, when people say "muscle weighs more than fat" they mean by mass. Muscle takes up less space than fat, so by mass is weighs more. If you took a chunk of fat and a chunk of muscle the exact same size, the muscle would weigh more. Muscle DOES weigh more than fat, by volume. And that's what people mean when they say it. AND THEY ARE RIGHT.

    In weight loss, it means that you can lose inches without changing weights, because you're burning fat but building muscle, and since by mass muscle weighs more, you can become slimmer, without losing weight.

    I think you're beating a dead horse here.

    then how hard is it really to change the phrase to add information that would make it true? i know exactly what they mean, but thats not what they say. but like i said, the phrase, in and of itself, IS NOT RIGHT. bottom line. when people do not have previous knowledge of this information it leads them to believe what is said, and unless someone clarifies what they "mean", the information is incorrect.

    Or using the word "axe" in replace if "ask." For example. "Let me axe you something..." It's ask. ASSSSSKKKKKKK!

    "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels."

    Whoever said that is eating all the wrong foods. I would - and did - choose being overweight over giving up yummy foods.

    Thankfully, I found you can be lean and still eat what you love... and it's actually a lot easier than avoiding deliciousness.

    THIS THIS THIS

    I'm sorry. Chocolate cake tastes way better than skinny.

    Okay so this is an offshoot of the "one word that makes you cringe" topic.

    Mine is "It is what it is..." I can't stand it when someone says that. It is totally over used, and makes no sense whatsoever.

    that instantly came to mind as my choice when i read the thread title. it makes me cringe.

    In response to they way I eat. "Oh that's not heathy."

    Really? Are you a medical scientist or doctor? More to the point are you a medical scientist or doctor that isn't on the dole of Big Pharma and the major food companies? Probably not, I'll wager.

    Besides, is it less healthy than me being 363 lbs? yeah didn't think so.

    "Quite simply." If it's so simple, perhaps you should drop that ridiculous embellishment and stop condescending. (my husband is BIG TIME guilty of this one!)

    I do not like to hear the following things.....

    "Dude"
    "That's O.K." and then they tell you how bad their stuff is compared to yours
    "Seriously?"
    "Really? " ....my usual response is .."no, I am lieing to you."

    There are more but that is a good sampling

    Yes. And be glad you don't.
