Words / Expressions you hate

[laserblue]

The tendency for many people on TV to no longer pronounce 'the' as 'thee' when followed by a vowel. They come out with 'thu apple', 'thu end', 'thu ocean', etc. Black Americans have been talking like this for a long time but why has it been adopted so suddenly and so fast by white Brits?

Edit: I've just seen Schafernaker of the BBC weather forecast say "thu east".

Panties. Just infantile.

Someone I know likes to say "Probably I will ... probably I won't".

How can two opposites both be probable ?
