What commonly used term, phrase, euphemism or figure of speech

[ashling]

do you consider overused, distasteful, stupid, or annoying? Obviously, not everyone will agree with you - otherwise it wouldn't be commonly used - so just everybody get past that and lets just nip those flames in the bud, ok?

For instance, making some statement and then using the phrase: "just saying." or "I'm just saying" is annoying.

or, "my bad," Now THAT is annoying to the max! I mean, what the hell does that mean?

Oh, and "to the max" .... just saying.

:evilgrin:

5. Dude, I hate the use of the word

"dude" in such ubiquitous quantity.

I also despise the artificial addition of the letter "e" to words to make them seem more "Olde English" and therefore more "intellectual," as in phrases such as "I do not intende any offense . . ."

Just playing! :toast:

6. As in this poem that I wrote for my daughter?

Know ye that
Feries in this place dwelle.
Mess not with the Faeries,
or go to ......
