Expressions you are sick of hearing.

[Ms. DICKINSON]

WTF?
Do you catch my drift?
pwnage/own/pwn

 

[Gibsons]

Just ran into one that I hated from a while back: "stakeholders."

 

[kalrith]

From my son, "Uh oh..." when preceded by him dropping or throwing something on purpose

 

[FeuerFrei]

"climate change"

analogous to "sun shine"

 

[GuitarDaddy]

Can't believe the thread has gotten this far and nobody has mentioned

"COOL STORY BRO"

 

[IGBT]

"the earth has a fever" <massage me gore>

 

[AreaCode707]

"At the end of the day..."

Nothing is ever done by the end of the day, and there is no such thing as the end of a metaphorical day on any of these projects. You're saying "at the end of the day" because you think it's going to make you look strategic and win you whatever argument we're in.

From my son, "Uh oh..." when preceded by him dropping or throwing something on purpose

lol mine does the exact same thing.

 

[pmv]

"it's not you, it's me"

I tend to get 'it's not me, it's you'.

 

[pmv]

"[Noun] much?"

It should be "[Verb] much?", surely?

As in "Use annoying internet phrases much?" NOT "annoying internet phrases much?".

 

[pakotlar]

"He did me a solid."

 

[Rubycon]

"how big is yours?" (often referring to computer memory, usb memory sticks, etc.)

"how many megapixels?"

I have a 14.1MP SD1400is and a 5D that's 12.7MP. Guess which takes better pics?

 

[BRObedoza]

"me thinks..."

 

[jinduy]

truth be told

 

[Doomguy]

"paradigm shift"

 

[Perknose]

"how big is yours?" (often referring to computer memory, usb memory sticks, etc.)

"how many megapixels?"

I have a 14.1MP SD1400is and a 5D that's 12.7MP. Guess which takes better pics?

The cameras I don't care about. How big are yours? :awe:

 

[wedi42]

"now more than ever..."

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Oh and EVERYONE says "touch base".

Grrrr..."touch base" and "reach out" are two of my biggest pet peeves. I cringe when I hear them!

And another one (may have already been mentioned, but I haven't read the complete thread): "Go ahead and ping him."

EDIT: And yet another: "It is a mute point." Uh, no, buffoon, it is a MOOT point.

 

[nakedfrog]

"In this economy"

 

[glenn1]

"We apologize for the inconvenience."

This "apology" is gratuitously used all the time as a half-hearted preemptive way of saying "don't bother complaining about this, because we don't give a fvck."

 

[ShadowOfMyself]

Can't believe the thread has gotten this far and nobody has mentioned

"COOL STORY BRO"

u mad brah?

 

[Rubycon]

The cameras I don't care about. How big are yours? :awe:

Nowhere near "El Camino" sized.

 

[Engineer]

"like..."
"you know...."

 

[shortylickens]

RACIST!!

If the only argument you have left is automatic accusation of racism, then you dont actually have an argument.

 

[coreyb]

office talk

"as per"
"please advise"
"did you get the memo?"
