What word are you tired of? - Page 10

thedivahrrrself · 10-31-2012, 03:02 PM

Conversate. It's not a word, people! The word you are looking for is converse.

Martina · 10-31-2012, 03:09 PM

Did someone mention this? I didn't go back and read.

What I think is beyond dorky is saying "That's how we roll" or "That's how they roll."

I'm tired of people wanting to "touch base" about something. I hear this all the time at work.

Epic Win

Epic Fail

I hear either or both at least once every day. And never a Roman chariot to be seen.

I'm sorta tired of the oh-so-clever, made-up hash-tag finale on statements, as if to say, "It's so true, it warrants a website."

alexri · 10-31-2012, 05:09 PM

"Lifestyle"

(and it's cousin phrase, "alternative lifestyle")

A lifestyle is being a bowler, or a quilter, or a runner, or a stamp collector, or a birdwatcher, or a mystery book reader.

Being gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender is life, not a lifestyle.

This overused phrase reminds me of a story shared with me by someone years ago...

Said person worked in an office with a manager who constantly used that phrase -- "let's touch base on that". So, unbeknownst to the manager, a small poster of Wrigley Field was tacked up on the break room bulletin board -- with a push pin "runner". Every time anyone heard the manager say "touch base" they were to advance the runner. The staff took bets on how many runs would be scored by the end of the week. I believe it was many more than my dear Cubbies could ever hope to tally.

the expression "mybad" it weak and I tend to see that person as weak.

"sammich" or "sammy" it's sandwich period ~ lol.

It is what it is. REALLY? How can something be anything but what is?

Talon · 11-01-2012, 08:57 AM

I'm tired of hearing worn out phrases like, "I feel you"...."That's sick"..."I'm gonna bounce"..."Don't be a hater"...these need to really be retired.

Bleu · 11-01-2012, 09:31 AM

Really?

I just want to say: YES, REALLY, motherfucker, REEEEAAAALLY!!!!!

(What I hate the MOST is that I catch my-stupid-self saying it too.) ugh

the word is regardless, just regardless.
Irregardless is not a word, although it is so often used I wouldn't be surprised if they have given in and added it to the dictionary.
When someone says 'irregardless' it makes my teeth hurt and my hand clench in a fist.
