Q Talk

Off topic but I can't believe my Great grandson said this to his Brother when he wanted him to do something quickly,   "Do it Literally, A.S.A.P"!  Omg!

The hosts are told to use certain adjectives and phrasing. But I get on edge with the misuse of language. Please tell Rachel Ellis to stop saying "these ones." Otherwise, I do like Rachel.

i hope there is a review of each host's show immediately after so that proper English is used. If you are going to be a communicator, use proper language.

Super easy. Super comfortable. Super soft. Super clean. Super warm. Super hard. Hearing these phrases drives me super crazy.

Steve constantly says "super duper" which just sounds childish even though I like him.

[Puggywuggy]

If a child misuses the word Literally it's much more understandable but adults misuse it frequently, which makes me wonder if they even know what the word means!

Oh my, overuse of a word drives me nuts. Not.

I don't care. If I don't like something, I don't stay with it. Life is too short to get riled up over such trivial things.

I crack up at the popular slang each generation use. My sister works with teenagers so she always hears the latest, then tells me and we have a good laugh! Recent ones have been “legit, fire, lit” (not short for literally but to describe something great.)

Back in my teen years (the 80’s) we used these: “that’s killer, that’s b*tchin, radical, as if, barf me out, gnarley, hello macfly, tubular, totally, gag me with a spoon and I’m sure many more I’m forgetting. 😄🤪

Lol, you're right.😃. I've just learned to overlook their words, even if they annoy me.  Afterall, I might miss out on something I want to buy.😃. And I'm not letting any host or vendor stand in the way of my shopping!🛍️💝💕

Ha ha ha!  Right?  I've got shopping to do too!

I understand your point of view. Sometimes overuse of the word "super" or other similar words can begin to irritate both you and those listening or reading. Try to expand your vocabulary by using synonyms or descriptive words to avoid monotony and make your speech or writing more varied and interesting.
