Stupid little things that bug you

Free.

Some fuck wit on Radio 1....
'The numbers are Five, Free One, Two, that's Five as in high Five, Free as in I'm Free.....

My spelling is shit, I speak Manc and I'm no grammar snob but for fucks sake.
Wanky DJs bigging up their phone-ins - "win £250 free money!"

'£250 free money' - is that the same as '£250', then? Prick!
 
... and another thing :-)

Ex-pros in the commentary box using long words that:
1) they'd never normally use in any other situation; and that
2) are completely inappropriate anyway.

Also, randomly chucking 'to be fair' in front of any sentence, for no reason whatsoever.
 
Seeing Molly May Hague advertising some soap powder on TV in a totally white outfit, in a white kitchen , washing her whites. I guarantee she's never done ' a full load in her life'

This gets my goat as well, the number of f**king half wits who simply cannot pronounce the letters 'TH' in words is off the scale - seems to be some 'urban sh@te' that they love on BBC1 as well as Radio 1 and 2.
 
You listen to Radio 1...?

Is someone holding you against your will?

Are you Terry Waite? (Tap twice on the radiator for 'yes').
I usually listen (in the car) to Radio 1 extra (I'm down wid day kids innit right) but they has some stupid quiz on.
I can't stand radio 2 and the commercial stations are just adverts.
 
When I have a browse on Instagram and people have posted photos and videos with HDR or whatever it is enabled, making them super bright. No fuckin need.

People ending a statement with 'let that sink in'
 
Pretentious phrases I remember from work.

"Synergy," "think outside the box," and "low-hanging fruit" "I'll ping you," "take this offline," or "put a pin in it"

Jargon such as "running something up the flagpole" or "blue-sky thinking"

Twats.
Take "it/this" offline is a polite way of not embarrassing people/someone in a wider situation. However buzz words are out of control, crystalise is the phrase at the moment that is hurting my brain.
