I could rant about these types all day. They are only bullshitting themselves. When I have a good night out, I don't take 38 pictures and I cannot function the next day to upload them all, tag them and then talk shit about them. This is because I had such a good night out. Don't get me started on people who update their facebook status all the time as if we all care about their lives.

4:38pm WHOPPER is stuck studying
6:50 WHOPPER cant take this studying anymore
8:00 WHOPPER is getting getting ready for a crazy night out, let the randomness begin!!!

twats the lot of them

'I was like'

No, you say 'I said' or an alternative, not 'I WAS LIKE OMG' etc...

My sister kept saying it the other day, I was like 'Stop saying 'I was like''.

I see what you mean..

every person from the South of Ireland does thats why!!

There is a taxi company here in Newfoundland whose phone number end in four 3's.

On all their cars the have their number written with the first three numbers numerically and then the last four as images of trees.

'Cool' was cool in the sixties but not now.

'Heads-up' GRRRRRRRRRR.

"You've got two hopes", etc.

"Does the Pope/Do bears" etc - just answer the fuckin' question, it's easier.

'Awesome' ie "Wow that ironing-board is awesome".

"Too much --------- is bad for you yer know". Well of course it fuckin' is otherwise it wouldn't be too much would it.

"Happy as a dog with two dicks"? How do you measure the relative happiness of a given number of canines with varying numbers of peni, and would, say, a dog with two of said appendages attached to its head be any happier? Though I freely admit I did used to say "Happy as a Dick with two dogs", but that was because I just happened to have a mate called Dick who had two dogs and as luck would have it he was reasonably happy.

Beers. As in "you comin for a couple of beers"

No you twat. I'll be happy to go for a couple of pints, I'll go out for a bevvy and at a push I'll have a few jars.

Under no fucking circumstances am I going for a couple of beers, or even a beer. I don't live in a shite American sitcom!

Corrie Nick · « **Reply #128 on:** October 10, 2008, 08:43:33 am »

"No offence but..." followed by something fairly offensive.

"I don't mean to be rude but..." followed by something that sounds exactly like they mean to be rude.

If you're going to be rude fair enough, don't patronise me while doing it!

Some of my girls mates are pulling some horrific phrases out of the bag at the moment, all thanks to a new bird that's been hanging around the last couple of months.

1. Morto
2. Lets G O .....as in not go, they actually say the letters G and O. It gives me rage
3. Natch ..... one of the girls say natch i.e. naturally every 2nd or 3rd sentence

tonyLFC · « **Reply #131 on:** October 10, 2008, 10:31:17 am »

It seems everyone has overlooked the worst of all...... "DUDE"!

As in "hey dude hows it going", "alright dude" - Im not a fucking dude, we are not living in fucking 80s America so fuck off and call me by my name/some derogatory title/swearword

Were I work, they have power sayings, which half of them don't even know what they mean, here's just a few
(I'll give their 'whilst back in the real world' meanings)

touch base   (someone tell me whats going on)

in the loop ( i haven't a clue whats going on)

learning's ( lets not fuck up again ay)

disregard the negative accentuate the positive   ( lets not talk about that fuck up again ay)

cause and effect    (who'll get sacked if they fuck up again)

blue sky (

fucked if i know what this one means)

a win win situation (i've finally done some thing right for a change, everybody all wank over me)

and c*nts who just say 'absolutely' (i haven't a fucking clue what your on about, so I will just agree with you)

You are in a shop and about to pay for your goods.
The shop assistant says "That's £3.27 please"
You reply "Do you want the 27?"
She replies......"If you've got it"

Well I wouldn't fucking offer if I didn't have it.
Why do they ALL say the same thing.....no matter what type of shop it is,or where it is.
It's always the same reply.

Try a simple "yes please"

Why are you asking if they want the 27p? If they didn't it would have been £3.00 exactly!

'he's a legend' - fucking hate it ('ledge' is even worse), since when was Andy fuckin Sinton an England legend. Overused load of shite.

'Alright bruvva' - fuck off.

Cops.

Can't stand it when coppers are referred to as Cops.
Tabloid shite;beit on the front page of the redtops, i.e 'Top Cop in sleaze scandal'
Or on the television, i.e 'Speed Cops or Cop Interceptors'

Ask a copper what he does for a living and he'll say 'policeman' or 'copper'....never , ever will he say 'I'm a cop'.

I hate it when people say 'cop shop' instead of police station too.

Another one I thought of - English people who say "shut up" in a stupid fake American accent when they don't believe what you're saying.

When someone agrees with you, instead of just saying 'yes', they come out with some wanna-be-middle-class bullshit, 'absolutley'..........absolutley what......just say yes for fuck sake.

Another one is when someone is quoting someone and they wiggle two fingers on each hand at you (quote/unquote).........wankers.

It makes it worse when someone you've known for years suddenly starts doing it........give your head a shake for fuck's sake.

There's a bloke that goes in my local that is always saying "like i say" in the middle of his sentences. I.E. "I was at work the other day and like i say, i was fixing this bolier that had broken down and like i say, i had to nip out to get some new parts. And like i say i was gone ages"

(This thread is cathartic.)

When someone is telling me that they will phone me, or that they have phoned someone, they do not need to use their thumb and little finger to show me what a phone looks like. As they haven't condescended to explain the invention of the telephone to me, they evidently realise that I have encountered the concept before. So why show me what one looks like? And it doesn't even look like this anyway!

Not sure if it's already in here but, when someone says 'I must admit' before agreeing with you surly means, if they could find some way of proving what you've just said is wrong they would..........if you know what I mean

'At the end of the day' we all probably use at least one of the irritating phrases mentioned already..........'to be honest' I know I do.
