  • Which phrases or sayings do you most overuse?

    Generally, but particularly this morning, I seem to have been repeatedly shouting "Christ on a ****ing bendy-bus!!…." as the intro to a fresh fusillade of abuse.

    To be fair, its not gratuitous, but in response to the utter and complete muppet I have the displeasure to be doing some work for today. I seem to have developed a Malcolm Tucker default setting

    What yours then?

    I have a few;

    'to be fair'
    'going forward'
    'do you understand you thick b****d?'

    and other useful management speak

    I guess mine is rather offensive. I deploy it when a female driver does something dangerous / annoying / unfathomable that affects my journey.

    I bellow "you f*cking slack cun*ed whore." 😈

    Blimey.

    "excellent" either ironically or not..
    "cool" because it annoys the children
    "out of his/her depth in a car park puddle"
    and
    "that went down like a bucket of cold sick"

    Mine are:

    "To be fair."

    "If you ask me."

    and……..

    I do have a habit of saying something and putting the word "ok?" after it

    Don't like mine at at all, I know how annoying they sound 🙁

    I've actually been trying to make an effort to stop saying them!!!!

    it's "apparently". And "To be fair" and "To be honest".

    "To be honest". I actually annoy myself when I say it.

    we far too often add a drawled and ironic 'an' thaaaaaaa'….' onto the end of our sentences in our household…

    Basically
    Blatantly (One I've always used and been know for!)
    Spot on
    Good stuff

    … and recently I've found myself using 'marra' (West Cumbrian thing! Not where I'm from!) a lot when I'm feeling especially sarcastic! Basically all that teamed with various inanimate objects and expletives teamed together!
