Re: Over-Used Phrases That Make Me Scream!

The constant overuse of "actually" and "literally" by hosts and vendors. (MarkCharles especially).

When people start every sentence with: "SO. . . " SO WHAT?

No, it's a word not a phrase, but people say it al the time now.

So, does it bother you????

I can understand thinking that "Hope that helps" sounds like, "Now that I explained it to you, do you understand now, idiot?"

Ok, but it doesn't mean that and I've never seen it used in a way that would imply that. I guess taking something innocent and turning it into something snarky is just one of those internet things.

Thanks for your input!

@chickenbutt My take is that if people are miffed by HTH and "no problem" in this world we live in how, the days must be long and difficult for them.

@ShowMe~

"We'll See"... Got a good chuckle with this one. We used to say that to the Kids. "Can we go...?" "Can we get...?" We would tell them - "We'll See" and the one who asked, would run back and scream to their siblings - "Mom/Dad said NO!"

I watch Judge Judy & she gets so annoyed when the plaintiffs/defendants can't talk properly. Especially when they use "like" & that happens a lot. "She was like and he was like and I was like" ugh! Also annoying when these people start a story with "Well, basically"..... JJ will interject with, "I don't want to hear BASICALLY!" Watching JJ shows me how much people use unnecessary filler words & phrases. Another example of this is people will say, "Well, to be honest"....to which JJ will interject sarcastically with "No, I want you to lie to me!" LOL

That one doesn't bother me at all. I think it is interesting to see what annoys some and not others.
