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. ;)

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.

I do tend to collectively call everyone either 'guys' or 'chaps' regardless of whether they are male or female.

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:

Whatnot. :P  The guy next to me says it constantly. >:(

"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 "

"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.
