    I'd be much more happier if i saw the word "fewer" on less occasions. That would obviously be like literally amazing, you know.
     
  2. Can we put Facebook need-for-attention status' in here?!

    "Oh no not again!"

    "Why always me?!"

    God yes.

    "Forever home" is also a profoundly irritating social media phrase.

    "Does what it says on the tin!" - Quoting crappy old advertising catch lines of any sort always grinds horribly with me, but this one, which is trotted out so often, particularly jars. I look at people who've just said it and think "you poor brainwashed dimwit."

    "He/She is Marmite!" - Another one from the world of product placement. No they are not marmite. They are usually rude and boorish lumpen elements unable to control themselves in polite company. They are not a yeast extract. More like a yeast infection.

    "Yeah, Watfurrdoin'wellthisseason, sowelldonethem," Muttered with eyes down and through gritted teeth by Lineker at 100mph before taking us off to the Vitality Stadium where Eddie Howe etc etc. Picture switches from Lineker to firm-jawed Blond fella in puffa jacket and very tight tracksuit bottoms striding purposefully along the touchline.

    Methinks - I don’t know why this gets on my t*ts so much but it does.

    Live Laugh Love - Reminds my of my stepmother, who plasters every square inch of her house with these poxy signs. Funnily enough she doensn’t have a life, only laughs at things she says and is thoroughly unloveable..... I feel I’ve gone slightly off topic.

    In and around - A classic, from the mind of Andy Townsend to the lips of every crap football pundit. Wes Morgan had his team mates in and around him on Saturday according to the MOTD pundits. He’s a popular guy but not THAT popular surely?

    I would certainly ask Wes' permission before I got in & around him.

    Surely part of the Partridge vocabulary?

    Add to that:

    ‘People’s vote’
    And
    ‘Meaningful vote’

    Probably from the same mind that gifted us the People’s Princess.

    Excellent & unexpected link.

    Maybe a pile of petrol station flowers outside BoJo's house when Brexit stalls.

    Would you actually want to endure Partridge in real life though? Methinks not.

    Reminds me of; “Although the effects of 23 years on the game would not render her pleasurable to mine eye”

    It winds me up hearing Just and don't being used in the wrong order. Watching the new McCann documentary I heard "Children just don't disappear from their beds".

    Also "I'm different than you".

    Laugh often
    Eat Cake
    Do Your Homework
    Ask Your Dad
    Drink Prosecco
    etc.....

    Put that fire out ASAP, you’ll be in ‘Keep calm and drink wine’ country before you know it.

    Definitely. You'll wake up one day and have this taking up your living room wall.

    'at the end of the day'

    Usually the start of an appalling life coaching sermon from someone that you nod at in fake agreement whilst mentally deciding which way said person needs to be exterminated.

    Also:

    'Catch you later' .

    I'm not a ball. I'm not jumping out of a burning building. So what are you catching? An Std? Flu?

    I suspect from the Maths lecture hall. A way of signalling the flow of logic.

    But unless your conversational partner is studying particle physics at MIT, it is unnecessary & unattractive.
