I hate it when people use the word "grub" when talking about food..
example..."Im just fixing up some grub."
I hate the word. It makes food seem like dirt

My dad would always say "C'mon girls, we gotta red-up". I guess "red-up" meant to CLEAN.
vis-a-vis
to me, when i hear the phrase vis-a-vis, it's a signal that the speaker is a douchebag
that said, i just got done with a memo where i used it twice

haha my dad took every chance to say it so youre right
you know the more i think about it, the more i actually like to use douchebag words
vis-a-vis, plethora, pursuant, i use them all
i've never said kafka-esque, though...yet
Gareth

'glad rags' - meaning their best clothes.
No one I know actually says it which is good because if they did I might just have to punch them.
And
'cheer up' when you're crying obviously for a reason since people don't just cry for nothing. It is NOT helpful.
'a bun in the oven' a baby is NOT a carbohydrate and a woman is not a cooking facility. Just FYI.
the list is endless.
'cheer up' when you're crying obviously for a reason since people don't just cry for nothing. It is NOT helpful.
that one sucks, but what i hate the most is when you're looking fairly mellow and someone says "smile." in this really super serious tone, like "come on, smile. just do it smile."
jesus, i wasn't depressed until you said that

I don't see how you could hate that... it's just a way of finding out why somebody is crying. I mean, it would be pretty weird if you met your friend and they were crying and you were just like "hey bro, you see the game last night?"

"don't fret" What the fuck? I'll fret if I want.
"we'll see" or "maybe" Umm...no. Make up your fuckin mind!
"making love" That sounds too cheesy, I'd rather it be referred to as having sex or fucking.
"no offence" ohhh, that's a big one. If you even feel the need to say that after somethin, it's obviously offensive so just shut cho mouf!
"that's gay" people always say that like gay is a bad thing. And it seems even though I hate it when other people do it, I'll catch myself doin it sometimes because it rubbed off on me.
"vein" *squirms*
"presentation" uggghhh, I hate it.
Well, some of those were more like phrases but oh well.
school
Oh yeah that one too.

I HATE it when people say 'utilise' instead of use
And any kind of management speak - 'blue sky thinking' 'draw line in the sand' 'rolling out' 'singing from the same hymn sheet'
At company presentations, we used to play management lingo bingo. It passed the time....

Maybe they're saying that they have to sort out what tasks they have to do before they can 'shoot' or deal with them?

I get annoyed out of proportion when people refer to themselves as "Christians" (the born-again kind.) And by all their smug buzzwords, like godly, faith, and praise. And when they talk about Christ, Jesus, or God like the know them personally. (I'm going to Hell, aren't I?)
