New - The things that really annoy you

[lemonjelly]

same difference makes me rage unnecessarily.

Either say "it's the same thing", or "there is no difference".

 

[lemonjelly]

You can add the word, like, in the middle of, like, any sentence at, like, any random time.

someone i knew overused the word totally in a similar way.

 

[Boozad]

"Off of". Get. To. Fuck.

 

[The Bear]

"Off of". Get. To. Fuck.

"Should of"

 

[Boozad]

"Should of"

Bugs me as well but at least it's an actual phrase with people getting the one word wrong through complete ignorance. Off of means absolute nothing, especially when you get utter twats from Radio 1 saying things like "Dave Grohl off of the Foo Fighters".

I had to go to New Cross with Mrs DW for something a few months ago (it's all fine) and in the waiting room they were playing Radio 1. I probably haven't listened to it out of choice in 20 years, I stopped more or less when Mark and Lard left.

My. Fucking. Word. That "music". Indescribably awful. Not even just "this isn't really my cup of tea", just genuinely abysmal, for a solid 45 minutes.

 

[ROVERT47]

Sorry, I didn't know you actually do have hearing issues

No problem.

 

[pagey]

Always hated the phrase "I'm not being funny but....."

Nope your not, your being a twat and I'm not going to like what your about to say.

 

[BillyDee]

the Home Counties version of room, ‘rum’.

The fuck you talking about?

 

[ROVERT47]

The fuck you talking about?

Come on, you can’t tell me you’ve never heard someone posh referring to a room as a ‘rum’.

 

[BillyDee]

I can assure you we don't say that here in leafy Royal Hertfordshire and I can't say I've noticed it elsewhere.

 

[ROVERT47]

Ha, room is probably pronounced rum naturally and you’ve never noticed.
unlike round here where it’s likely to pronounced ‘rooam’.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

I’m in a group chat for my son’s football team and some of the parents will write ‘is’ and ‘as’ instead of ‘his’ and ‘has’. It really bugs me.

Yeah Mark & Lard and then for a while Colin & Edith was the last time I listened to Radio 1. As you say it's genuinely godawful. Thankfully all those old Radio 1 DJs mostly moved over to Radio 2.

 

[Tredman]

I'd rather watch actual frogging than listen to radio 2

 

[Boozad]

Seeing as I spend nearly every weekend down there I can assure you some do!

The latest football thing where they start sentences with 'yeah no'. Our Gazza does it as does Harry Kane

 

[Del Woppio]

It was pointed out to me last year that I do this too. Mainly on 'are you/do you/have you...' kind of questions

I think it's like a micro version of Lampard's thing where he'd be all smiley and jokey at the start of an answer and then pivot to 'nah but seriously' and give his answer.

Either that or maybe subconsciously buying time. Or, and it's a long shot, but I could just be a cunt.

 

[Wellen Wolf]

The latest football thing where they start sentences with 'yeah no'. Our Gazza does it as does Harry Kane

I was just going to note that myself!

 

[EdgeOfTheAlps]

"Off of". Get. To. Fuck.

"Off of". Get. To. Fuck.

Bad, but not on the level of "I could care less". 'Kin hell, a phrase so stupid Trump could have invented it.
