When I say, "Excuse me."  The other person says, "You're alright."

I must annoy the heck out of a lot of people, because I use many of the phrases listed.

FURBABY!!!!

It's a creepy mental image and I really dislike hearing adults use babytalk in everyday discourse.  

It might be cute on a four-year-old but those 5 years of age and older should refrain from using the word.

I've never said 'furbaby', but I have to say that baby talk makes me a little crazy.   I don't like words like hubby, veggies, and a score of others.  I don't begrudge others the words they use, however, as  long as they aren't words of bigotry or hatred but I admit that I do cringe a little with the baby talk words.

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger.  I know that I say some of the words that are disliked here.  I know it's not personal, and I don't use the same words incessantly, so I really wouldn't worry about it.  

I think it's somewhat lighthearted, this sort of discussion.  It is for me, anyway.

When you mention a celebrity, and the person you are talking to says,

"I don't know who .....is.  Must be before my time"

Recently a younger person (say 30's), didn't have a clue who is Chevy Chase.

Lately, I've been compared to their grandmother.

Like, "ya my grandmother has done that too".

When a couple says, "WE'RE pregnant."  No, you're not.  Unless some scientific wonder has occured, your husband/boyfriend isn't pregnant, never was, and never will be, so please stop.  Can you tell that bugs me?
