Phrases that (LIKE) really bug us all, basically

LIKE, the number one overused and abused word in the English language, presently.

Screwiest way of attempting to explain why someone is unable to be located. “They went missing”.

My wife’s two examples, “hows it hanging”, and “have a good one”.

[TruthWillWin]

"The whole ball of wax"

"Win win". Or worse yet, "Win win win".

[CholeraJoe]

“Me luv you long time, GI.”

[HereInTheHeartland]

Whatever..

[ErnBatavia]

“Parenting”

[mollynme]

"Litmus Test"
When did a pH test become a test of worthiness?

[Savage Beast]

I'll tell you some words I really hate: "pee", "poop", and "butt", and you hear them more and more on television and in casual conversation.

I also hate the use of foul language on the radio or TV--Rush Limbaugh and Phil McGraw, for example. (Don't remind me. I've had posts removed here on FR--and wisely, I was ready to admit--because of foul language. Keep it up, Moderator.)

And what good does it do to warn parents that the upcoming should not be heard by children? Children could be listening without their parents. Or parents with children beside them could tune in after the warning.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

“Not for nothin’...”

[Just another Joe]

My own personal peeve is the phrase, "You know".

I intensely dislike that phrase.

Just how do you know that "I know"?
I may NOT know!

I especially dislike it if it's used more than once in a conversation.
Once I can handle. If it's used again and again it just, you know, sets my skin ashiver with dislike.

[Roscoe Karns]

"That is wrong on so many levels."
"Carbon footprint"
"It's Nixon goes to China."
"Grim Milelstone."

[Ditter]

I hate when I hear that some action is “wrongheaded”. Isn’t it just “wrong”? I guess I hate it so much because liberals are usually the ones to say it, and they just p*ss me off!

[two23]

"Save BIG..."

(printed advertising and commericals)

[Proud2BeRight]

Hey, like, she goes, hey dude, like, I like totally, like know that like dude.

[Sloth]

Many of you shared frustrations over the misuse of "forensic"

OK, somebody help me out -- what on Earth is this referring to?

[Cymbaline]

I hate when people ask me to “show them the ropes”. I don’t know where they are. Maybe I could pull some strings and find out.

[Ditter]

Someone told me yesterday that I was “stuck on stupid”. That was great the day the general said it but it quickly became trite.

My other pet peeve is for a news reader to say “after he raped and murdered Girl Scout Troop #33, the “GENTELMAN” was apprehended on 1st street”.

THE MONSTER IS NOT A *GENTELMAN*, YOU STUPID NEWS READER!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about the yelling but I always yell at the TV when I hear that.
