One\'s all guys hate:

\"Let\'s be friends.\"

No how about let\'s be bitter enemies, cause I can\'t stand you since you uttered that statement.

or

\"I want to date someone just like you, just not you.\"

There\'s some good (as in \"I also dislike them\") ones in this thread already. One of my personal dis-favorites is:

\"Twenty-four-seven.\"

Or how about any sentence that uses the word \"multitasking\"? Stupid buzz word.

I have a pet hate *everything*...

Y\'know (used as filler in a sentence when someone is trying to talk faster than they\'re thinking) - No, I *don\'t* know, you haven\'t finished your sentence yet.

Normalcy - what on earth is wrong with just using \'normality\'? Why make up another word?

Shorty - as a synonym for \'woman\'. Not only is it stupid, but just a few years ago it was used exclusively to describe children, so I can\'t imagine how anyone adult could feel happy to be called by it.

Proactive - you\'re in favour of activity?

\'That\'s just how I am\' - generally used by contestants in reality TV shows to justify a) self-righteous speeches based on another person\'s perceived (usually erroniously) wrongdoings b) stupid, easily avoidable behaviour which is going to cause problems which links to my next hated phrase...

\"I just tell it like it is\". Nope, sorry, what you\'re usually doing is telling it in such a manner that it makes someone else look bad. Or you\'re just obnoxious :)

Here\'s another good one:

\"I know I speak for all of us when I say this....\"

Uh, no, please don\'t put your stupid words in my mouth. I\'m perfectly capable of speaking for myself, thank you very much.

If you want a stupid buzz word try:

\'imagineer\'

And I detest people who say:

\'cirtle\' instead of circle, and:

\'tuth\' instead of tooth.

:mad:

Ooh, I missed out:

\'talk to the hand\'

Anyone who uses that phrase: JUST F*@!ING STOP IT!

Actually just spend a few minuites watching any trashy US talk show (Oprah, Ricky Lake, Montell, etc, etc, etc) and you\'ll soon find a whole plethora of words and phrases that\'ll bug the living shit out of you.

\"To the max\"
\"to the extreem\"
anything else trying to reach out to us gen. Xers. (I beleive I was born at the end of that wonderful generation)
\"Sagging\" don\'t mind hearing it, just hate seeing it.
\"minority\"
\"more fun than burning down an orphanage\" (you have to understand my freinds to get it)
\"OMG\"
\"cheese\"
\"beardy\"
if everything\'s unfair then doesn\'t it even out?
\"fo shizzle\"
\"proper english\" Not even the English speak proper english all the time.
\"(insert name here) is leaving GW\"
\"Life is hard\" Duh!
\"As seen on TV\" just because I sit on me bum all day in front of the TV doesn\'t mean I\'m watching you cut a house in half with a space age tin foil.
\"gotta love it\" no I don\'t
\"Male pattern baldness\" there\'s no pattern about it, it\'s there then it\'s gone.
\"Predisposition\" Almost everyone has a choice.
\"smart arse\" that imply\'s that we have to be smart!:D
\"miracle product\"

I\'ll think of someothers then paper the internet with them.:D

There are many already listed that I hate, too, but one sticks out in my mind that isn\'t in any of the replies, and it bugs the living crap outta me:

\"You have to admit...\"

No I don\'t. I don\'t have to admit anything.

What does that tell you about those who use it constantly?

I\'m getting more and more tired of my generation and the way that the rich kids in my area pretend to be in gangs. while funny, it\'s very annoying when your confronted by four white kids even skinnier than you who\'s first words are apparently \'step-up dawg\', but is slurred by their combined gold caps anf braces. It\'s even harder for people to notice that when a character in a movie says or does something mind-numbingly stupid, it\'s to get laughs, not because it\'s the new cool thing to do. Pop-culture is the source of all stupidity, because that crowd is apparently the only one that exists, at least acording to what the TV tells me.

\"ya ya ya, I\'ll do it later\"

\"Jesus F****** Christ\" I am a visual person, which means most of what I read and hear gets translated to an image in my head if at all possible, and this one is just wrong. swear if you have to, but please don\'t give me images like this:mad::p

other ones along this line

\"fu***** sh!*\" EEEEEW!
\"sh** faced\" again, yuck!
\"pissed up\" I know it means drunk, but, I just want to ask \"pissed up what? a rope?\":rolleyes:lol

US midwestern thing....

Something that always annoys me is when people say Warsh instead of Wash.

It is apparently a midwestern trait, but although I was born and raised here, I don\'t say it (although my mother does!)

I have to Warsh the dishes...

We are going to Warshington DC...

I am gonna have to Warsh your mouth out with soap....
