To paraphrase Steve Martin: I can't shove a Cadillac up my nose.
I'm pretty sure I can't get away with claiming to have a PhD during my next job interview.
I know for a fact that I can't get my fat ass into a pair of 36" jeans.

BTW: It's: 10 items or FEWER, not less...

Just sayin'...

The phrase "it was all he (she, they...) could do to...

For example:  It was all he could do to keep from laughing.

The problem:  The writer never says what IT is!!!

I've even seen well established authors use this maddening phrase.

Mind i'm not really keen on people taking a word like saying and dropping the 'g' off the end but hey thats just me [:D]


Ooops..I am guilty of that..I have to say this, even if someone has beat me to it, but it really is a southern thing. I type like I talk. I drop the G's off of almost every word that ends in G that I say. It is part of my accent. I tried really hard to not do it, but then it was so uncomfortable talkin that I just couldn't do it. Not that I can't, just that I won't [:D]
 
I have enough things to worry about, besides tryin to fix my accent to please those who don't talk with one <s>

Are we picking on other words now?  The expression "tad bit" grinds my gears.  A TAD IS A BIT!  Redundancy NOT required, people!

Laxadaisical.

Also, it's a MOOT point, not a mute point.

For the record it's lackadaisical.

Actually, that's not strictly true. My sister can lick her elbow. She's the only person I've ever known who could though.

Locally, folks who pronounce the street "Lahser"  Lasher.  eeh.




LadyPact -> RE: The most annoying word in the world!! (5/18/2009 9:34:26 AM)

The one that drives Me absolutely insane is "holla" as in holla back.  It has got to be the laziest concept of a word on the planet.

subbie... so  irritating

PeterJay -> RE: The most annoying word in the world!! (5/19/2009 7:44:12 AM)

In some cases, maybe they should say "I shouldn't eat fish because of allergies". But I have no problem with them saying "can't".  I'm an amputee. I can't touch my toes on my right leg.

10 items or LESS in the UK [:D]




MyLovespet -> RE: The most annoying word in the world!! (5/19/2009 5:29:07 PM)

For me, hearing the word AWEsome!

The word in general chaps my ass, but especially when it is said kind of close to how I wrote it.

You may have heard someone in a high pitch squeal say the first syllable and then on a down note for the second... thus...

AWEsome!!!

Or the ever popular "OH MY GOD!!! That is SOOOOO AWEsome!!!"

...sheeessshhhh...

Can't

 
This word bugs the hell out of me, i mean ffs it really has no meaning, there is no such thing (in my opinion) as can't. When we say we can't do something we really mean we won't for various reasons.

For example i could say i can't kneel for longer than an hour because of a bad ankle. What i really mean is i won't kneel for longer than an hour because it would do damage to my ankle. I could do it if i wanted to but i choose not to.
 
I know i'm being the word police but it really irritates me. Any words that irritate you?
 
Oh and before anyone says it i do use the word can't, but it bugs me when i do. I want it out of the english language, out of the dictionary NOW [:D] lol.


My sixth grade teacher would draw a distinction between the word "can" and the word "may."  If you raised your hand and asked, "can I go to the bathroom?"  he would reply:

"I don't know, can you?"

or

"You can if you think you can."

or

"Well, we won't know until you try."

Or something along those lines.
