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". :ahhh
Anyone else do this or is it just me? :D

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....(http://fc03.deviantart.net/images2/i/2003/50/c/4/Pokerface_Emote.gif)

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." :D
-
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. :D
-
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"
"you will walk over but your gonna limp back"
Just a couple I have said and or heard.

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

I went through a 5 year period of saying everything was ''groovy'', does that count :D
Current one is ''F*** my old gonads'' :D

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?" :twak:

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

I like hate it when like people like use "like" in like every like other word. I had a classmate that would do that and I just wanted to go over and slap her silly and yell "YOU ARE IN A **** COLLEGE ENGLISH CLASS"
and I sure if you asks people who know me what is the most Annoying thing I say, they would say everything
-
I have picked up the word "mate" Darn you Brits and Aussies.
-
I say the word "query" lots - its a medical thing, often written as a '?' in medical notes... So "?(query) pneumonia" or "? cancer"
Unfortunately it slips in to normal conversation with me alot - so I end up saying things like "query dinner". It gets some funny looks.
More annoying (and infinitely more pathetic) is the schoolyard antics I can't stop using when I speak to a woman I like. If they're just friends the conversation is fine. The moment I start to develop feelings for them all I can do is make fun of them. No wonder I'm single :rant:

Cute girls definitely have an effect on the part of a man's brain that controls speech. :(
Not to worry though Rich, it begins to wear off as you approach 60 :D

I like to say " OK you set , like jelly" :D ::)
When talking about something being weak or under powered I do like to quote the great late Barry Sheene "Wouldn't pull the dick of a chocolate bear" not very classy but I am an Aussie after all :D :D.
If someone/anyone asks me how I am I always say "Not too shabby thanks" much better than "Good" but cheesy, if not OK I say " I am Donald Ducked" :D :D

Benner its all your fault. I`m going around saying "Happy Days." :D
-
Hehehehe!!!! :D
-
OK, having thought about this for a little while I have come up with the things that make me want to hurt the person saying them...
"like" "kinda" and "yeah?" interspersed between other words for no apparent reason what so ever. Especially the latter - it's a question yeah? to make sure you're listening yeah? to this inane drivle yeah?
Shuddup already :ahhh
It makes me disproportionately psychotic >:(

We have him on one of the local channels... it's really funny dubbed in Spanish tho...

I guarantee it will make you want to put your foot through your TV screen less though.

No need to be sorry. The Germans have Tim Mälzer for TV chef - THAT dude is annoying! He´s like 500% Jamie Oliver. Scary!

Oh, and he is friends with Jamie Oliver, they worked in the same restaurant before both of them became TV chefs...

OK, I just realized a saying I use that might be annoying. I didn't even realize I say it until this thread. Since then I've been paying attention to what I say and the one thing that I say that drives ME nuts is "awesome possum". I picked it up from a 19 year old girl I worked with about 4 years ago. It irritated me when she said it but I guess some how it slipped into my speech. Ugh, now I have to gargle something, I feel dirty.

Like catching VD ain't it?
-
Pretty much everything I say I guess... Mr. Whippy said it right off the bat, talking about the skiing/snowboarding/climbing scene. Since I am 2 out of 3 of those, I got all that lingo on lock. "Dude", "sick", "tight", "so clean", "greasy", "do work, son", "gnarly". I could keep going but if you watch any action sports video, you will understand where I'm flowing from. ;)

Time to bump this with my latest annoying phrase "simples"
Stupid Meercat advert...

Oh dear God yes >:(

I use "dude" alot, as well as "bud". I call pretty much everybody I know or meet, that is male, "bud".
And I have a hard time when I see something I like or is real nice from not saying "Sweet!".
Me and a few guys at work watch alot of stand up comedies, we find ourselves spouting off certain phrases all the time. Given the right circumstances you'd hear alot of Ralphie May, Gabriel Iglesias, Cristopher Titus, and John Pinette.
One that I use that really annoys me is "y'all". I catch myself saying this all the time when talking to a group of my guys at work about something, usually when it's something I need them to do......as in "Y'all need to do this" or "Y'all need to do that". I am about as Yankee as they come so even some of my guys go, "Did you just say y'all?" It's funny, but annoying. Likely a carry over into my vernacular from my time spent at Fort Benning.

"y'all" use that word as American's "huh?" Wonders never cease "eh?" :D
-
I do tend to collectively call everyone either 'guys' or 'chaps' regardless of whether they are male or female.
-
"No smurf Sherlock"
Its not an every day expression but I do use it too often :-[
-
Really? Been using that one for a bit now. Normally after some smurf pulls out in front of me in traffic ::)
In certain areas of Belfast they tend to end every sentence with 'so I did'. I went to the shops so I did and bought some milk so I did, etc. :twak:

"I told him to finish up that job and shut down the machine and whatnot, and then he was to go help Fred clean and sweep up and whatnot after that."
Good lord it drives me insane! :ahhh
And then when I got home this evening, I was telling my wife how the day went and whatnot, and realized now he's got ME saying it!! :bnghd: :bnghd:

I love it how different people have their own little saying . For instance I have friends who say the following .....
"At the end of the day "
" I'm not being funny but ..."
" Good Good "
" Oh right "
I often count just how many times each of them say it in a conversation and once you become aware of it you are suprised by its frequency .
Where I used to work I had a habit of walking round the factory saying " not long now " whether or not it was 10 mins to break time or the end of the day or my holiday was getting nearer .I bugged the hell out of people :D
Some of my little sayings are
"Rare as rocking horse smurf"
"about as much good as a chocolate fire guard "
"I'm not as stupid as you look "
" Happy days "
" Amazing "
and that all time classic " Boll*cks "
-
Happy days! LOL :rofl:
Yeah I still say that a lot too. :D
-
"At the end of the day" has become all the rage in my area. ::) It started out as Salespeople speak, and spread to the common populace from there. Now I even hear kids saying it. :P

We get that here too. Very much reminds me of "when all's said and done..".
I've got to admit* that I don't find many of these particularly annoying, not until they get over used. The same phrase used more than a couple of times in a short conversation starts to get to me.
*Is that an annoying phrase I use? I think it might be. :-[
-
Sadly, Ive been using "really?" and "wow" a lot (directed at stupid activity). When I hear my son use the words, it annoys me.....so I need to stop saying them.
