The saying, "thats life".

I mean that is the dumbest shite ever. Obviously anything that is happening is life, so to say "thats life" is just asinine redundancy. Like what other choice could it be other than 'thats life'? Everything that will ever happen or has happened has happened in this 'life' (it started at the big bang and will end at the big implosion). So every scenerio could end with the phrase "thats life" and it would 100% apply.

I HATE(all caps) the term “brain fart”. So much so , that I hated even having to type it out for this post.

I use it all the time. To me it means, "not a problem...thats what we are here for, don't hesitate to ask in the future"

All attempted sentences without verbs:

"We comin"
"We goin/gonna"

Those are just the first that come to mind. The annoyance is mild though, I do understand the statement.

Irregardless get my goat.

And throw in "Literally" where everyone is using it in every other sentence as of late.

One that kind of faded away is the "Like, you know". Listening to young people talk and say that crap 3 times in a sentence made my skin crawl at their lack of communication skills.

I don't like the use of "concerning" as an adjective (I guess that is what it is).

must be "acceptable" I guess because EVERYBODY seems to do it but

"That is a concern"

is a lot better than

"That is concerning".



My other one is whatever the year's new NFL draft catch phrase is. One year all of a sudden it was "hand in the dirt" for a DL.

The term " passes the eye test". Pisses me off.

Not a phrase, but the word "physicality" . I hate that both of those are used by so many sportscasters.

You and I would get along great. I’ll take it a step further. If I say thank you while handing you money, you SHOULD reply, “no, thank YOU!” Since I just spent money at your business.

It’s actually been about 10-12 years now that EVERYONE says this word all day long, mostly incorrectly. This is my #1 aggravating word/phrase. I’m the ultimate “get off my lawn” guy. I was raised by strict parents who enforced manners and respect. Today’s youth has NO idea what those things are.
Excuse me/I’m sorry has been replaced by “my bad”
No thank you has been replaced with “I’m good”.
Yes ma’am/sir is just “yeah” or “what?!”

They all drive me nuts.
