People that say "Right?" every fifteen words....

[Killswitch1]

Shut the hell up. Please.

God damn.


Anyone else know one of these twits? Right? Right? Right?


Ugh.

Enough already.

 

[shewantsmore]

My pet hate is people who start a sentence with the word basically, i hate that

 

[OldJourno]

How about people WHO say "ya know" all the time?

 

[Que]

Oh, I know, right?

 

[Hard_Rom]

Shut the hell up. Please.

God damn.


Anyone else know one of these twits? Right? Right? Right?


Ugh.

Enough already.

I do that when I'm stoned. It's meant as a way of inviting discussion and comment during a conversation. Perhaps a slightly one-sided conversation when some pot head is rambling on.

The Canadian 'eh' has much the same purpose, eh.

 

[Liar]

...riiiight.

 

[underguy1]

OMG right?

 

[aella_345]

Right?

 

[thør]

Indeed.

 

[Stewart_Pidd]

word bro!

Stew

 

[sircumvent]

Like, that drives me up the wall.

 

[stickygirl]

and the questioning inflection, where the last word of the sentence goes up? Like everything is a question?
But there are some good expressions that still make me smile: this isn't going to end well; is this a thing, just another salmon day...

 

[Tommybowler]

they should be strongly blessed in the eye, right?

God I fucking hate that.

Like, I don't see what all the fuss, like, is about. Me and my friends is talking and my mother gets upset, and like, being that we be just talking I don't, like, get it. You all know what, like, we is sayin', so when me and her is talking and, like, I don't know, she, like, starts to get all up in my face about what I am talking about and, you know, like, how my grammar isn't all that good. But, being that me and my besties can, you know, like, unnerstand each other, then, like, I don't get why her is getting so upset. Like, communicatin' is communicatin', you know, like, right?

When I had the comic shop, the woman in the other side of the building was a florist. When she was slow she would keep wandering over to chat.

The words "I know, right?" were burned into my head for years after she closed.

Literally is one that drives me crazy "I was literally running across the parking lot"

Actually and my daughter's fav "Really?"

 

[lovecraft68]

"Like" is the worst. My six year old is going through this shitty phase and it's doing my head in.

See I can handle things like that in a kid, even a teen because I figure its a phase. adults who do it drive me nuts.

 

[lovecraft68]

The issue I have personally is I keep starting sentences with "I mean...I mean who could do that? I mean why the hell would you..."

That was pointed out to me when I attended toastmaster's for a couple of years and I made a conscious effort to stop, but if I drink or just get lax it comes right back.

I also tend to default to what my wife refers to as 'street 101' I start breaking out the "I don't got nothin'(in RI the g gets dropped a lot, much more noticeable for those who grew up in the inner city) whadaya talkin' about, and the one she hates the most 'not for nothin'

 

[Saint Peter]

Toastmasters is/are the devil.

 

[Ramone45]

I hate when people answer every question with "So..." It has become ubiquitous.

 

[lovecraft68]

Toastmasters is/are the devil.

They are a particularly evil group.

Practicing public speaking is a gateway to the devil himself.

My wife was president of a club called the advanced orators. I had a lot of fun with that.
