I haven't watched a full QVC presentation in, LITERALLY, a hundred years or so.

HERE'S THE THING ..... it makes me crazy when something is so AMAZING that I can't get over how AMAZED I am about it.

After all, it's just so AMAZING .........

I very seldom post something in this forum. However, I understand the concern of overusing a word when viewiers are trying to relax and decide if purchasing a product. It gets annoying. Same issue I am experiencing with Tina from Kitchen Aid who overuses the word "yummy." Ms. Tina already has a high drilling pitch voice to begin with. I used to enjoy watching the demonstration of Kitchen Aid products,but after hearing the word "yummy" repeately, I just stopped buying or watching the Kitchen Aid demonstrations. I don't know whom in QVC can advise Ms. Tina to ease her overuse of the word "yummy" so we can feel relaxed and enjoy the demonstration. Thank you for posting this topic.

If we throw vendors into the mix, Josie Maran beats them all.

It only took me about 6 months to be full to the brim of her. She needs a new schtick or quit telling porky pies.

@vsm - She says "You will literally wake up the next morning with no wrinkles! ".

I think it's often just habit. I used to have a friend who constantly said "In actuality" all the time. Of course, generally he said it as a way of saying he knew more than anybody else, but he did it all the time. I'm sure I have phrases I tend to use more than I should and never think about it. I get bothered more by people who use the word "less" when the proper word should be "fewer" which actuallly IS literally almost everybody these days including advertisers.

I knew a woman a few years ago that would constantly say "I am not trying to be facetious" all the time. It was very annoying.

David always saying “Everybody is buying this.” Yikes! I am sure everyone is NOT! I put it on mute as I cannot stand listening to their nonsense. Or, I just do not watch.
