"You are now approaching the landing level. Please take care."
(As if anyone on a flippin' escalator doesn't know it).
"Do you want fries with that?"
(Grant me the intelligence that if I'd wanted them, I'd've asked for them.)
"And now on <whatever channel> your chance to enjoy again...")
(Why not just call it a repeat?)
>>:-(
Andy, grumpy old boat-builder!
-
Any sentence beginning "Honestly " - you know it's anything but
-
Nuttamean, whatever, at the end of the day, innit! :P :P
-
To tell you the truth (telling you anything but)
Frankly... (again anything but)
At the end of the day..
At this moment in time...
Like..
You know..
-
Yours sincerely - from the Gas/Electricity/Water people etc. etc.
-
One I forgot..and you hear this quite a lot when people make a statement ie: I really do like those cars....'NOT' !
AAArgh!! It really makes one cringe!
-
Dear Sir
We are pleased to inform you----------------------
Means bad news >>:-(
Also--------- Are you joking me ?----------------AAaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
-
"I was sat" instead of "I was sitting" or "And I'm like blah, blah, blah" >:(
-
almost/nearly unique (it's either unique or it's not)
Really excellent (qualifying a superlative ugh)
Giving 110%
-
Double Negatives- such as-
I REVERSED BACKWARDS ! >:( >:( >>:-(

YOU JUST REVERSED ! O0
Dave.
-
Yeah, yeah, rght!

I turned round and said /she turned round and said /he turned round and said ! why dont they just kin face each other >:(
Oh and race drivers for sure for sure :-\

"Cool".....as an expresion of appreciation or pleasure, makes me hot!
"Gay"... used for homosexuality is an inappropriate use of a perfectly good and useful word meaning "bright, lively". The misuse of "gay" looks like actually removing its correct use from the language because folk tend to avoid using it in case they are misunderstood or made the butt of jokes.
"Poof"....which really means a stool or cushion on which to put your feet or to sit upon.
I'm not at all homophobic but I do object to the corruption of the English language.
Roger in France.

"What's the crack?"
"nitro"
-
Oh and race drivers for sure for sure :-\
It used be "for sure , Murray"
-
OH YEAH !!!............" have a nice day ". >>:-(
-
"What's the crack?"
Should be "craic", and I think it's Gaelic (innit?)

"Are you a concession?"
"No, I'm a ****ing pensioner!!!"
Rick
-
"My bad" what does that mean?
The youth of today have over used the word "Like" example: I was like walking and I like turned to my friend and like talked to her and like we just like laughed.
I also hate "At the end of the day"
-
Have you ever seen any of these problem family shows... everyone seems to begin a sentance with .."well, basically"...
-
"Interestingly" .As a certain person who writes in a popular model boat magazine repeats countless times.
-
Moi? :o :o
-
Enjoy yourself.....- sounds to me as: "Have fun due masturb....."
-
NOT you Colin. :)
-
"Actually" (aka akcherly) = redundant 99.99% of the time. chef Garry Rhodes is one of the worst culprits in this regard and I constantly feel the need to throttle him >:( ........................... or switch channel
Reading through some of the above has actually made me realise what an actually intollerant grumpy old Victor Meldrew I actually am, maybe my missus has actually been right all this time. actually {-)
-
"I don't want to cause a fuss, but...." You know they ruddy well will!
-
When you are having a disagreement, but you have a strong case or somebody is just being dismissive and they say,
"Whatever"
It is like saying f*$k off.
-
"That's almost exactly right" said yesterday morning by one of my pupils.
Another Radio presenters' favourite - "Absolutely"
-
The use of expletives as an alternative to punctuation.
On that program where they make motor bikes out of scaffolding - the over-use of "awesome"
Garry Rhodes is one of the worst culprits in this regard and I constantly feel the need to throttle him
Why not just on general principles?

That one's always useful when I feel the need to wind up SWMBO, she goes bonkers ;)
-
Andy, I admit to trying out on my missus too.. just for a laugh and it produces the same effect! Result! O0

Sir, with respect..........etc.etcetera.
