Just fuck off.







Just e-fuck off surely? 

I'd go for anything said by George Osborne ever, especially that disgustingly over-used hollow phrase "long term economic plan". Listening to him speak is the aural equivalent of stepping in a big fat dog turd.

"Literally". My daughter (13) uses it in every sentance even when it makes no sense at all

Never heard webinar before. I won't start using it though as I don't know what it means.
I use hat in a way that annoys me as in ' with my management hat on I would...'and I want to tell myself to shut up.
Although with my kind hat on I should be nicer to myself

Alternate, when the required word is alternative.

I struggle with the word 'Sambostar' if I am honest.

I couldn't work out if he was a racialist, or if his first name was Sam and surname was Bostar.

Or maybe Star and his first two names were maybe Sam and Bo- couldn't imagine parents being that mean though.

Do we know for sure?

Intellectual anti neo Nazis, especially ones with clever names referring to impossible, unachievable tones in the European system of music and such.

Utilise.
I mean what the fuck is wrong with "use". You don't sound clever you just sound like a cock

The word "like". This seems to be used like many times in today's language because like users of said language like don't have a broad enough vocabulary to like be able to like express themselves like properly. Like!

Bahhhhhhhh!

It's like prevalent daaarn saaarf.

"Plec" as an abbreviation for plectrum - I just don't like it and we've got "pick" as a shorter word anyway.

Starting sentences with 'So' for no apparent reason....

"Registry" office, when the proper term is "Register" office.

@fretmeister I've never heard it be called a "register office" as everyone seems to say registry. Where's that come from? Was registry ever right, or is it an Americanism, or is everyone I know just a tard!

The use of the word brought to describe a purchase when they really mean bought.

It bothers me.

Telephone Preference Service Reports.....imaging I was working in a real life enactment of that film Office Space.

Ha Ha, he got a job in construction with his redneck neighbour and was finally happy.

In all reality I don't speak much and see few people day to day, nor watch much TV, nor read, so few words annoy me.

I'm not sure what offends me more- your lack of understanding of the major scale, or your ginger minge.

This wouldn't stop me from being Simply Death's manager though.

I will steal from you, however.

Stupid website double posted.

Tricky. I use this a lot. It's sort of like the spoken equivalent of ellipsis...

"School me in"  .............. horrible expression!

"Absolutely". The word you were thinking of was "yes", you twat.
