I don't like "good luck with that!"

That's a favorite of mine.

I especially hate it when Jennifer Aniston says it

Here is something that REALLY irritates me! When you are starting a brand new job, and people tell you that, "there is a learning curve with this job", and, "don't be afraid to ask questions". Then, when you have to ask someone a question again, because you want to be sure that you're doing it correctly, and people get a pissy/bitchy attitude about it. That attitude gets on my last nerve! Don't tell me to be afraid to ask questions, then get an attitude because I'm asking you questions for the sole purpose of doing it correctly. I think you would rather have me ask questions and do it correctly, then to take a guess and do it wrong. Douchebags!!

"I'll get back to you."

"I'll touch bases with you."

You ain't touchin a damn thing, here, juniah, cause I ain't got one!

"Keep me in the loop"

ahhh! you just made me think of a "new" one I hear at work alot lately. "tie up" (no no...it's not pervy)\ like this. we'll "tie up" later or let's have lunch and "tie up" :grr:

Well, that's a new one on me. I've never heard that expression, but yes, it is equally irritating.

"We thought you said that you didn't want a slope towards the floor drain"

"At the end of the day". WTF, why does it have to be at the end of the day? Why not at the beginning or the middle?

"don't take this the wrong way, but...."

(...you smell funny)

(...your head is lopsided)

I hate when McDonald's calls you by name instead of a number. I'm just here to pick up some food, you don't need to know my name, assign me a number, I won't be insulted.

When people call each other "baby".

For some reason, in a movie, show or song it seems ok but when I hear it in person I'm like...um...yuck.

"eat your heart out"

Doesn't bother me that much, it's just weird when you take it literally. Where did this phrase come from? When did besting somebody require them to dig into their chest cavity and ingest their heart?

Reminds me of an old joke: Woman says to another woman; "You know the fastest way to a man's heart is through his stomach." The other woman replies, "Really, I was thought it was through his chest."

I'm totally guilty of the 'honey, sweetie' thing.

I hate when people say 'Kapeesh?'

I hate when people say 'a rough guestimate'

I hate when people say 'whatever'. You might as well say' okay you win, I'm just giving up,' instrad of trying to make it sound like some fierce comeback with 'WHATEVER'

My mom recently has started saying, "Whatever", and yes, it irritates me. But I can't say anything, since she's my mom. So I just let it slide.

"bae"

as in short for baby

aw bae come on bae

don't do me like that bae

:vomit:

I think that's a carribean thing. My ex used to say that and the tone in which he said it gave me the impression that it was something you said to avoid saying "Jesus Christ" in vain. I never really asked him what it meant I just assumed it was some colloquialism he got from his dad since he said it too.

I think you're right about that. This one time, at a place I used to work at, one of my bosses was using the copy machine, which was close to my desk. Something went wrong with what he was trying to do, because I heard him holler out, "OH CHEESE AND RICE!" The girl who sat directly behind me and I were busting up laughing, but doing it quietly, so that he did not hear us.

I never ever heard that phrase in the Caribbean. Or anywhere else .

you know what really irritates me, when people bitch about a job, when there's loads of people out of work due to the economy. do your job, be thankful and shut the fuck up

Exactly. If you're unhappy with your particular situation, quit moaning and change it.

I can't stand folks who say, "My God tells me to do this(or that)". Please Shut up already.

But my biggest peeve are these teenagers who toss around 'nigga' like it's a term of endearment. I hear this shit on the bus every day and it drives me nuts.

Or when someone's making 30+K a year and no kids or responsibilities and their b*tching about how they don't have money.

Or when a wife and husband is making salary each and their b*tching about having no money!

B*TCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a college degree and still an hourly employee! I have 3 kids! GTFOH! I REALLY don't have money!

maaaaaaaaaan don't even get me started on that shit

has anyone mentioned "it is what it is"?

as in,

"I'm adding to your workload and responsibilities and cutting your staffing budget. do more with less."

"Really? Don't they realize that it's not safe to do this?"

"I'm sorry, I can't help you. It is what it is. Make it work"

It's irritating when you ask somebody a question and they respond "I have no clue". Then they go on to list some possible answers to your questions. I feel like saying, I thought you just said you had no clue, when in reality you do have some clue.

"Really? Don't they realize that it's not safe to do this? And, painful?"

"I'm sorry, I can't help you. It is what it is. Make it work. Besides, they'll grow back"

you're right! i hate when people say things like that.
