For me, when people say "just sayin' " after a comment, it seems rude. As if they don't care about your opinion of what they just said so they are putting you on notice that all conversation about their comment is over.
For example: "I think the government should spend more money on nuclear research...just sayin'!" It's almost like they should say, "There's my opinion, I'm entitled to it and I don't care what you have to say."
That's my selection of an overused saying or statement! What's yours?
"to be perfectly honest"
I would hope so!!
My husband has come to hate the word awesome.
For me...i would say the phrases that's so gay or that's so retarded.....fucking hate them!
Sex is not the answer. Sex is the question. "Yes" is the answer. ~Swami X
"I'm just keeping it real" or something along those lines. Like that excuses whatever shit comes out of their mouth. Something like, "Your ass is as wide as a barn. Don't get mad at me. I'm just keeping it real."
I also hate when people say, "I could care less." It's, "I couldN'T care less."
When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser. Socrates One of mine is the statement "you know" it drives me insane! Another is "like".
I have heard people use both of them 10 times in a single freaking sentence. Grow up people and learn some effing vocabulary!
I use "just saying" when I'm being ornery. Never in a serious conversation.
When in a conversation or someone writing in a conversation "that being said". It's usually after they've gone on and on agreeing with the topic at hand. Now they want to give their "real" opinion.
"whatever" it's the most passive-aggressive phrase known to man. Just sayin'. *giggles*
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.
"Epic" i hear this all over the media now.... it's really bugs me.
DLizze....Comment well stated!!
"It is what it is"...something about it just bugs me...what is is it exactly?
A new one seems to have raised it's ugly moosh: saying "hashtag" before the irritating phrase, for example, "hashtag, just saying". Annoys the crap out of me.
Oh .... the " it is what it is " one really sets me off .... what originated as a phrase that was intended to encourage contemplation and deeper study has now become a standard for slackers to use to try and explain anything that they are trying to avoid because they don't want bothered ...... They think they sound profound & wise ....... My reply is " Well Poindexter DO THE MATH ! THERE'S SOMETHING TO BE LEARNED HERE " I'm sorry but to hear it a handful of times in an evening in different situations & within different crowds is just toooooooooooooo much !!! #*:##%*...............
The word "amazing." Pizza, or a pair of shoes or Gaga's looks do not amaze, as in so strange or whatever that they can hardly be believed.
The exclamation "Oh my God!" drives me potty and people saying "a myriad of..." instead of "myriad". Also "hence why" instead of "hence". It makes me grit my teeth so I don't end up ranting at them.
I don't care for any of the hundreds of overused sayings.
But I love to use one and twist it.
Empty-Handed ; I just used "Empty Hearted" as a expression in a story.
Oh, My God ; I might use "Oh, my gawd" instead.
YES ; I use a foreign expression to suit the story "Ja" ; danish for yes.
