I've literally never heard anyone use the word "sammie" before, but I hate it already.

Doesn't Quiznos or some other sandwich chain use "sammie" as the term for their not-full-size subs? I'd feel kind of dumb ordering one though, not to mention I'd probably need 2 or 3 to be full.
 
"Fare" as used to mean food on a menu, especially when spoken. I know, it's valid use; I just don't like it.

"Never looked back" Example: "A year ago I started kegging and never looked back."

When I was a kid "hark" would set me off but I'm better now.

I have a nephew that really dislikes "udder" and "bladder", so I work them into conversation routinely.

"To die for"
So stupid, Ok, I'll give you some but then you have to go kill yourself. You get the satisfaction of eating some of the stuff "to die for" and I get the satisfaction of knowing I'll never have to hear you say that again.

"Facebook"
Nobody need to know what you are doing every second of the day.

"I get that"
Overused now, everybody is saying it.

"My face is up here"
Yes I know, I was looking there next.
 
"Korder" (Quarter)
"Rekkanize" (Recognize)
"Motor-sickle" (Motorcycle)
"Melk" (Milk)
"Pin" (Pen)
"Meterologist" (Meteorologist)
"Trayszher" [rhymes with Frasier] (Treasure)
"Absorkee" (Absarokee) - Both of which are bastardizations of Absaroka.
 
"Really?... Really?" or "Seriously?... Seriously?" Overused.

When someone goes "That's so funny" with a straight face.

Or when someone ends a thought with "So," and that's it. lol
 
I could do without "so" also but for a different reason. The Mrs. begins a line of questioning with "so". "So...are you ever planning on cleaning out the garage?" "So...did you think this was a good idea at the time?" When "so" is the first word out of her mouth I know I'm in trouble.

Ugh... same.

Only it's, "So I was thinking..."

Then I'm all, "NO, STOP! NOTHING GOOD EVER COMES OF THAT!"

And then I still lose.

For me it's usually me saying "so." As in: "So let me see if I get this straight..."
I can't begin to count how many problems start with that sentence; which leads to a story later on that starts with "So there I was, minding my own business..."
Regards, GF.
 
Mine is the word "question".
Whenever I'm in trouble with the wife, she'll preface her interrogation with the word "question", like,
"Question. When you were looking at that blonde walking across the parking lot..."
Then she'll use it on me for random questions, because she knows it makes me panic.

That's just mean!
 
Preggers? Preggo? Its F*cking pregnant.... you arent a fu*king marinara. You are pregnant...
And for the love of crap, stop with the "baby bump" photos. My gut sticks out over my belt, it's disgusting and obese. Yours sticks out, and you're "cute".

News flash, ladies: Looking like me is not cute.
 
Weird pet peeve of mine....I hate the word "meal"

I don't know why but it always makes me feel uncomfortable when I hear it.

I don't know why but it always makes me feel uncomfortable when I hear it.

In what context?

-- Sit down for a meal.
-- Meal worm
-- Seal-a-meal
-- Meals on wheels
-- Meal train
-- Last meal
-- Kid's meal
-- Meal ticket

Ya know, the more I say it, the more foreign it's starting to sound...meal, meal, meal, meal, merl, mearl, meel, mrrl, mlae, mlah, mleaugh, mulahblag, mlagamagamaga, mko[fa0wu9rsajvc-42

Bring a pipe and we'll talk about the universe! :mug:

I'll need to do more thinking and see if I can figure out why it bugs me. However it is one of the only words that really do. :confused:
