Memberso – just curious – what words or phrases that are popular now, do you HATE that everyone else uses?
I ask because I absolutely DESPISE the term “Man-Cave” I just think it’s so incredibly rediculous.
My husband hates “At the end of the day” because it is SO over-used and never used correctly.
What words or phrases can’t you stand?
MemberIt is what it is.

Member“I don’t know” is a phrase I cannot stand. It drives me into an unstoppable rage.
Member“retarded”
followed closely by calling things/people/events “gay”
MemberUsing “would of” instead of “would have” and spelling “though” as “tho”
MemberIt bothers me when people use the wrong words entirely- I had this crazy boss that would say (over and over), “You have to use your INITIATIVE!” And point to his brain.
Member“Irregardless”
SHUT UP THAT IS NOT A WORD!!!!!!!
Also business buzz words like “solution management”
Memberemb – I COMPLETELY agree. I always correct my students!
I hate when people shorten words like “vom” for vomit and say things out loud like JK, LOL etc. I dislike internet speak.

MemberGinormous . . . it’s like hearing fingernails down a chalkboard to me. Also, unnecessary abbreviations.
