What phrases drive you crazy?

[BigAlsGal]

You're in my prayers.

I know it's meant with the best intentions but all I hear is "I'm basically going to do the least inconvenient thing I can do to help you".

 

[Mizzoufan]

Yucky
Gross

[Disneyncscmom]

Referring to someone as "my ride or die"

Using the word "veggie"

Saying "supper " really hate this one...its lunch or dinner!!

 

[tvguy]

When the response to your "thank you" is "no problem".

Uh oh. That is my standard answer.

 

[Micca]

The addition of "right now" unnecessarily added to various comments. For instance: I'm really thirsty right now. I have a massive headache right now. I'm stressed out over this work assignment right now. An example of where right now adds emphasis to a comment: I need to find a restroom RIGHT NOW!

 

[GPC0321]

This will be controversial, but I cannot stand the term "kiddos".

 

[Gumbo4x4]

Using "disrespect" as a verb.

Or adding "but" behind "I take responsibility".

Please reconsider. http://www.dictionary.com/e/supper-vs-dinner/ I'm from New England and the only times we had dinner was in restaurants. Otherwise, 18+ years of suppers.

This will be controversial, but I cannot stand the term "kiddos".

Even worse, littles.

Uh oh. That is my standard answer.

The actual standard response to thank you is you're welcome. http://www.wisegeek.org/why-do-people-say-no-problem-in-response-to-thank-you.htm

I'm a bit surprised this wasn't taught in the California school systems back in the sixties and seventies.

Can't help myself from throwing these into conversation every once in a while just to make my son cringe.

"Long story short..."

(By then, it's too late.)

So, so true!

Uh oh. That is my standard answer.

We need a "dislike" button on this board!

No problem

When the response to your "thank you" is "no problem".

I couldn't agree more, in the context of somebody doing their job. I don't care if it's a problem or not - it's your JOB and I just politely thanked you for doing it. For that matter, when I'm paying a restaurant bill or buying something from a cashier, ought they not be thanking me for my business? I'm pretty surprised that management in stores and restaurants don't instruct their staff on the proper use of the terms "thank you and you're welcome". Sorry, now I'm ranting...

 

[mantysk8coach]

"What say you?"

 

[Walt's Dream]

Kiddos makes me cringe.

LOL. "No problem" as a response to me shows that what I did did not rise to the level of needing thanks.
