Words you hate?

[CambridgeExileBlue]

Awesome.

Used in the wrong context and used far too often for trivial things. Really annoying.

Your 3rd example is the one for me.... "so"

If you want a few extra seconds to reply to my question in our conversation than just let me know.
You don't have to act like your on the Graham Norton show by saying "so" before you reply.

TWATS

Or , so , at the end of a sentence leaving it hanging..

‘Backstory’

No, there is no such thing. Stupid.
It is ‘history’ (or ‘istree’ depending where you are from)….

I have a very long list of words and phrases that send me apoplectic, and it is getting longer.

Is there a whole new vocabulary for us over 50's ?

Hate. It’s a word that’s bandied around all to often and, rather bizarrely, is frequently aimed at people that other people have never met.
Life’s just to short for all that.

Love and hate are the most powerful words in the English language. Both are heavily overused.

 

[Winchester]

So.
(People who begin there reply when asked something and do it constantly)
