I like it when folks say this to me. After their "really??" I stare them in the eye and say: No, I just lied. They dont get it usually but its funny to me.

Maybe they get screwed with a lot.

If they did, they should be catching on by now, don't you think?

Really, I didn't know they said that. It's a spacer, really. It just means, I'm listening tell me more. Kinda nice really.

OK, I can't believe no one said this yet:
at the end of the day.
At the end of the day, your whole world changes?
Guess people got sick of hearing "bottom line".

Can I go again? OK thanks.
This topic intrigues me because I thought i was the only one who was feeling bugged by little phrases.
The LOL, and all the other abbreviations bugs me.
It's like people are too lazy to type out real words, which just puts the burden on you to decipher the codes. If you think about it, it's just as easy to type. And a lot easier to read.

British English phrases are the worst sounding in my opinion.
...a bit
...bloody

and then there's the ch ch ch ch thing when a clerk is looking something up.

"I"

"and"

"the"

"Obamacare"

"Marry Christmas!"

"Good morning"

"Get back to work."

"Yes, dear."

A phrase I would like to hear more often (underused):

"Yes! Yes! Yes! YEEEES!...whew... oh, Andrew..."

I have this friend that constantly uses the phrases "Here's where I'm goin' with this" and "listen, now listen."


I am listening, you Bostid! Just get to the point and stop using filler phrases.

I am bad about "know what I mean?" and "ya know.......

"Whateva"

"Hit me up"

I have to mention just sayin again, because it really bugs me.
