Words you hate hearing

[da man]

"Issues"

As in, "She has some serious issues."

Irrational? Perhaps.

But I really don't care!

Rosie, calm down. I think you have issues.

From my dating days:

"Where do you see this relationship going?"

I've grounded two already tonight...

You wanna try for three?!!

Score the basketball. AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, amongst. I've been hearing radio guys say it and seeing it show up in print lately. What, is Shakespeare making a comeback? Is this 1606? It's among!

Of course, I already lost the battle on glamor. Why do people put a u in there? Did we move to England?

OK, Rosie, I've got issues, too.

 

[da man]

From my dating days:

"Where do you see this relationship going?"

From mine: ``Maybe we can just be friends.''

 

[Rosie]

OK, Rosie, I've got issues, too.

Problems. You have problems.

So I won't ground you......for now.

Did I mention plated? . . . grrrrrrrrrrr

The boss telling you, "Step into my office and close the door."

 

[kingcreole]

From my dating days:

"Where do you see this relationship going?"

From mine: ``Maybe we can just be friends.''

And mine: "King, you can get any girl you want."

"Except for you, right?"

"Well, you're such a nice guy, but ..."

The word that becomes *****cat makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up, also the word "darling" as said by my very Texas grandmother.

Yes, but Barbara Darling is a good thing. You should see Barbara Darling dance in "You're a Big Boy Now"

 

[Chi City 81]

Duke sucks.

Oh, wait. I love those two words, when used together.

 

[imjustagirl2]

Steve Bartman.

Oh, wait. I love those two words, when used together.

 

[Chi City 81]

Steve Bartman.

Oh, wait. I love those two words, when used together.

I was at that game, and don't blame him.

But an effective touche, nonetheless.

I think all annoying TV people should have the middlie initial now. Try it. Stuart A. Scott. Chris A. Berman. Rush A. Limbaugh. Ann A. Coulter. I like it.

Not that it has anything to do with this thread, but when I was in college there was this stand-up comedian named A. Whitney Brown. He'd introduce himself thusly: "Hello, my name is A. Whitney Brown. Someday I hope to be The Whitney Brown." One of those small humors that always elicits a soft chuckle from me.

 

[shockey]

"negotiate." the john clayton version. AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!



for the unfamiliar, his nails-on-chalkboard pronounciation is"nee-go-SEE-ate."

 

[buckweaver]

Mature. When it's pronounced "ma-TOUR."
Advertisement. When it's pronounced "ad-VER-tiss-ment."
Coupon. When it's pronounced "QUEUE-pon." ??? :-\ (Got dammit, it's "COUP-on," as in coup d'etat. This makes me madder than anything. Totally irrational hatred.)
