Abbreviating words when speaking gets me every time.

I work in IT and the most irritating is "stored procs" ....just fricking say stored procedures.

Not a word or expression, but....


Dumb chicks who constantly exhibit "vocal fry" because dumb chick celebrities live inside their heads.

byur-rick instead of Buick.

Or and Are are not synonymous.
Just as "Like" is not synonymous with said or says.

Actually- for some reason this word gets used way to much when i'm on the phone with insurance adjusters.

i had a list but i got called away from my desk and i don't remember them all now.

Myself instead of me - If you’d like more information, just ask Laura or myself.

I gotta be honest I'm pretty sick of the "Let's fricking go!!!" exclamation. Feel like that one should have ran its course a couple of years ago. It's time for a new pump up slogan.

I also hate when people say "Ya know?" to stall when they don't know what actual words to use to describe something.

Here's one that's caught on big, lately:

Someone asking "'right?'" in the middle of a statement after every point they make trying to convince everyone that they're....right.
