What Phrases or Words Irritate You?

What do you typically use to measure with?

 

Depends what I’m measuring- ruler or tape measure most likely

 

Last year I found what I thought was a pocketwatch. Turns out it's a little roller measuring device, for maps probably, but could be used for pretty much anything flat. Handheld version of the big ones used to measure driveways and such. Anyway, you might be able to find one that works pretty cheap. What few times I've used mine, it has been extremely accurate and impossible to get wrong.

 

I’ll have to look for one.

 

I'll send you mine if you can't find one. It's just sitting in a box.

 

I was never able to understand "As It Were". My sister has been saying that a lot, for the same reason she always says new things-because she doesn't want to be left out.

 

I agree on "vacay", but not familiar on "merch".

 

"Have a good rest of your day". Forgive me but this has to be one of the silliest phrases I've heard. Yo?

 

Right....we need to be extra careful with that one.

 

Yes...how was the BEGINNING of the person's day?

 

How very kind! I found a digital one on Amazon.

 

I.R.S.

 

How about duck tape?

 

If you have to measure duck tape you're not using enough of it.

 

And? At which or what point of the day would you use "Have a good rest of your day"? Before or after "Good Morning" or "Good After Noon"? Before "Good Evening"? And I don't know either but "You Can Trust Me" on that one?

 

When you're throwing a roll of tape at someone and they don't see you? Duck! Tape....

 

Is it the abbreviation or the organization that you find objectionable?

 

Yes it is. Universally despised, I would think.

 

oooooh, clever...let me say that(oh, I just DID say that lol)

 

Well unless you're throwing a roll of tape at a goose. Then it would be: duck duck goose tape.
