I'm feeling really grumpy, for some reason. Idly surfing the internet is proving more aggravating than stimulating.

 

Whether it's something as harmless as a news site or as stimulating as a discussion board, everything I look at seems to include a word or phrase that really, really gets up my nose. ("Gets up my nose"? I'll bet that just entered someone's most-hated list.)

 

The worst of it is the realisation that I let some of them slip into my own scribbling and conversation.

 

A few offerings gleaned from today's wanderings. There are, of course, many more - do add yours.

 

Not on my watch

Not fit for purpose

So...

Can I get...

Reach out

Going forward

Roll out

At this time

Should/shouldn't of

Anything written in text speak.

 

Trump.

 

Using the words stood or sat,  instead of standing or sitting.  "He was sat at the bus stop".  NO HE WASN'T.  He was sitting there.  Everyone seems to say it including the BBC.

What do you say Pet! I’m not your pet hun!

Everyone is biased against Corbyn😀
People who use the words Scum, Vile etc
Not sure about Dianne Abbott, she gets an awful lot of on line abuse, when she protests is racist, I believe it’s more a matter of professional incompetence!
Left and right wingers who value free speech so much they cannot wait to shut people down!

I'd rather be told to have a nice day by someone who doesn't mean it, than be told to p*** off by someone who does.
