Words or Phrases that Annoy

I think that's very true, Mark. I'll try and think of some.

when people say 'for definite'. WTF does that mean? I don't even think it is grammatically correct. Also a southern thing I believe - when asking where something is like an object/place, people answer with the expression 'where to?' e.g the keys are in the living room response: where to? and the ubiquitious 'WHATEVER!' grrrr................

the word 'annoy' annoys the hell out of moi. the phrase 'phrase' annoys je because ne pas way is it ein phrase. people with foreign names should be deported/departed hencwith. names like Carl Gecko Hunstoat Anti Jaqui Rolph D'Artless Mykle Jackson zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I think it's more a way of blurring the edges between married and un, gay and straight, temporary fling or inmate. After all if you're talking to a complete stranger they don't need to know your life story. And it wasn't so long ago that it was considered pretty low to live with someone you weren't married to. I just hate the business connotation. Having a relationship with someone isn't always an agreement or contract is it.

Not a bloody partnership in my experience either. Doesnt the word "partner" denote equal effort?

You took the words right out of my mouth. (meatloaf) oops, wrong thread.

I don't like hearing women referred to as dogs usually by men with big ears, doggy breath and waggly tails.
