i'm making myself too vulnerable i think. one day i'm going to post a beat thread to which there will be a mass amount of "well, look on the bright side, everything happens for a reason imo" posts.

I actually don't hate it, i think it's hilarious in it's ability to be used anywhere and mean nothing.

I hate when people passively question a factual statement youve just made without offering any sort of support for their challenge or showing any interest in getting to the bottom of it. There are a few phrases that in context embody this disgustingly rude response:
"Im not so sure about that"
"I dont know about that.."
"Im pretty sure thats not right"
"That doesnt sound right"
This chick Im friends with does it all the time and I fucking hate it, I feel like fucking chokin that bitch out everytime she does it. Its not that she is disagreeing with me, its that shes depriving me of knowledge she should be providing when disagreeing with me. Its an important way that people learn, through discussion. When you take that away from me I just think youre dumb and rude.

T'mornin'
First heard while camping with some retarded redneck friends of friends of friends... They would yell this word constantly as it if was the funniest thing ever. Yes, contracting the words "tomorrow" and "morning" into one annoying word is awesome. 
Fuck. I wanted to strangle them all every time they said it. But I refrained because I am sure they all owned guns.

hahaha .. ya srsly are people really that dense as to think that you dont know that a motorcycle can be a dangerous thing? Do they think they are the first to tell you? Or that youll have an epiphany after they tell you?

"Hun, could you do me a little favor"?
Clinch factor = super-clamp whenever I hear that now.

The one that drives me crazy the most is when people say "literally" when they mean "figuratively"

Or people (especially newscasters) using "ironically" incorrectly. For example: "There's was an earthquake in California today, ironically, there was also one in Hawaii."

Talking heads on ESPN and their stunning knowledge of sports with comments such as "scoring more points will help you win games", or "well they've beaten this team the last 2 games, so it's going to be very hard to win a third in a row."

We used to have a Mariners broadcaster, Ron Fairly, who was especially bad with this.
He had gems like:
It's late in the game, we are down 10-9 "We may need to score in the double digits to win this one"
and
"This hitter really likes a fastball over the middle of the plate"

speaking of ESPN, when they bring up some fucking stupid useless stat, and pass it off like its going to decide the game. like, new england is 13-1 when the wind is east-west blowing over 10 mph.
