Can't stand these sayings

"It's common sense" which basically means I think its a good idea e.g. Hitler thought it was common sense to invade Poland.

"to be honest." Well, why wouldn't you. I say it all the time by the way. Gets on my tits. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Agree, most people who use this phrase on a regular basis are either "well in the know" or hiding from what they don't.

My little gripe is people who constantly say "and this is key" or that is key, trying to ram down your throat that they are subject matter experts, not always the case and THAT IS KEY!!!

Words of wizdom;

A wise old man once told me, that when you start swearing "you've lost the argument"
What the f**k did he know. ;) :ayatollah:

My mother's (she is 77) stock reply to anything I say is "You're right there." Now, I talk 95% bullshit and 5% bollocks. So I can't be right. Why is she treating me like this?

By the way, my sister say's the same thing.

Anyone else noticed people saying this?

Oh I forgot "like". I was in a curry house the other night picking up a takeaway and there were two girls having some food talking very loudly. The one girl said "like" almost every other word! I had a bit of a wait for my curry so I counted how many times she said it in one sentence. The record was 11 times!

On a sideleine there was also a bloke so pissed that, when he was paying for his curry, he gave the waiter his card and called out his PIN about three times :lol:

When the waiter said "sshhh, you're supposed to put it in yourself" the bloke had to ask his mate to type it in for him :lol:

How he was able to stand up and walk out I don't know.

If we are talking wives sayings then the one my mrs uses is "do you want to put the bins out", "do you want to paint the living room" do you want to tidy the kitchen".

No I don't want to but it looks like I'm going to have to.

I find it dissapointing that many in South Wales can't even be bothered to pronounce their Ll's etc. It's hardly difficult is it.
