Annoying phrases that you say.

Anyone else hear something and then keep saying it for days afterwards despite it actually being quite annoying? A few weeks ago I was hooked on "sound as a pound" which bugged the hell out of me, but now I'm stuck on "Happy days".

Anyone else do this or is it just me?

I get dumb versions of songs in my head- odd commercials, jingles, jokes and so on.

Last week I had Eric Cartman's version of Lady Gaga's Pokerface going through my head. As if the original wasn't bad enough....

One of the employees I work with said to the rest of the working crew one day that we should resurrect the
word "chillaxin." In hindsight I should have shot her because that stupid term keeps popping up into my head
as "sound as a pound."

I hate "chillaxin"! I'm bad to say "aiight" My wife hates it.

Chillaxin. Oh dear, maybe this thread wasn't such a good idea.

Anything with "izzle" in it. Foshizzle.

I'm quite good at shaking off anything I pick up accidentally, and it drives me insane when the boy wonder has a new one... currently "sick".

Everything's sick - WTF??

HUGE in the skiing, snowboarding and climbing world. Actually huge in all X games disciplines. "Totally rad" is frequently in the sentence before or after.

Foshizzle.

I'm glad it's not just me.

"Happy days". Grrrr!

"Im on it like a fat kid on a cupcake"

"I played high school tennis I know what love is"

Not really sure how it got started but there is "love" in tennis so we usually say at any given moment for a reaction.

Blood is thicker than water, but ketchup is even thicker than blood so always do what the nice tomato tells you to do....

Hey! I sound like that! Well, not that high pitched, but the accent yes.

Current one is ''F*** my old gonads''

Try to avoid using these myself, as I find them very annoying:

-"dude" as an appelation.

-"hella" as a superlative

-"sick" as referenced in posts above

-"mad" as a superlative

-"was like" in place of "said"

-"rocks" as a term of approbation

-"rocking" in place of "wearing" or "carrying"

Example:

"And she was like, 'Dude, it's one sick gaming system. GTA positively rocks on this machine, but the hard drive shot craps last night. Dude, you have hella skillz with computers. Can you put in this new hard drive for me?'"

"And I was like, 'Babe, of course I can fix it. I'm rockin' a Cybertool today and have mad skillz with hardware.'"

Alright. I thought about this. The NUMBER 1 MOST ANNOYING SPEECH HABIT IS:

When people end most of their sentences with an upward tone, as if they're asking a question rather than a flat or downward tone indicating a statement. When teenagers or young adults do it, I feel like saying, "Are you telling me or asking me that?"

That's even more stupid than "happy days".

If I watch the Beverly Hillbillies I usually walk around saying "Well doggie" like Uncle Jed.

Sazabi · **Reply #28 on:** November 19, 2009, 04:29:24 PM

Not so much a phrase, but watching "The Big Bang Theory" always puts me into a Leonard/Sheldon manner of speech, rather, into a further exaggerated manner of speech than what I typically find myself using. >.>
