What Phrases or Words Irritate You?

One thing to note:

When undergoing a medical procedure, when a Nurse or Doctor says "this is gonna hurt a bit...", you can believe them. It's going to be painful.

 

Like when I cut my chin open from a bike accident as a child and the nurse said it would be okay to scream when they disinfected the wound. I started bawling before they even started.

Here they say "There may be some slight discomfort."

 

I hate when they say that!

 

It's better than "This won't hurt a bit."

 

you should come back with, "may???? slight???"

 

"You better bite down on your wallet" isn't a good sign.

 

'Out loud' instead of aloud.

 

someone saying "Sure" to begin an answer to an interviewer's question. Why not just say "Yes, I understood the question", although that would sound equally odd.

 

People who say "buffalo" when they see a bison.

 

Sure

 

buffalo

 

Dinner time!

 

Tatonka

 

…or "camel" when they see a dromedary! duh!

 

Bring on the dancing horses!

 

Dude and bro, but only when used in every other sentence. I had a guy that worked with that said dude or bro to me every sentence. It drove me mad.

I don't think this falls under a phrase, but I used to work as a machinist at this shop, and I had a supervisor that would always say "what's wrong?" practically every time he saw someone. Really irritated the crap out of me. There would be two guys just having a normal conversation, and he would walk up and say "what's wrong?" Really annoying

 

I see what you're saying, bro.
