Gardeners' World?

REALITY SHOW: Peter Andre: My Life
On: ITV2 (6)
Date: Tuesday 12th June 2012 (Already shown)
Time: 19:00 to 20:00 (1 hour long)

Last in the series of the reality show. Peter jets off to Los Angeles to start recording his new album, leaving Andrew at home for his final phase of chemotherapy. In LA, Peter hangs out with big-name producers and cruises around in a red Mustang in true Californian style. Back in the UK, he meets up with an old flame at a charity ball in Scotland and sparks fly when he cooks a Sunday barbecue.

Its like adding the word like to every like sentence like 🙄

No, but I work with someone who does! I don't work in TV either. That means there are at least two-such people out there.

+ 1 for a workmate who does - freeking annoying

No,yeah.

Or my favourite of questioning the statement you've just made ie
Them-Is John in?
Me-No,he's on holiday.
Them-Is he?
......
Me-Is he what?
Them-On holiday.
Me-How did you know that?
Them-You just said he was.
Me-SO YOU WERE BLOODY LISTENING YOU FREAKING MUPPET!!!Do you want a bag for that?

where's he been on holiday?

Bother-in-law does it all the time, makes me feel like giving him a good hard slap, yeah?

Slight diversion here but
People starting an answer with the word "so" is beginning to annoy now.
As in: "SO, what you need to do is......."
Patronising or what?

argh! I hate the starting with so. My colleague does it, (and i quote)

Her - So, had a bit of a snafu with x,y,x

Me - What are you talking about.

etc etc.

Gordon Ramsey does that. Irksome in the extreme...

"So" at the start of a sentence is very common in presentations/demos here at work. Really gets my goat it does. Slightly more annoying is "OK, so,".

That and the raised inflection at the end of a sentence like everything's a question?

That's the word I was looking for "patronising", makes you feel like the dimwit talking to you thinks you might have trouble following his line of conversation

So, sometimes I'm like "yeah" at the end of a sentence yeah? But then, like, you know, I'm like sometimes not. You get me, innit tho?

mines "mate".

I didn't realise until I had angry words with my boss and finished a shouty sentence with "...MATE!"
completely bloody ruin the impact of my rant 🙁

Rorschach, don't be all up in my grill and disrespecting me and shit, bro.

I'm more likely to say ken, ken?

Like- if you are from lancs. Very annoying

Willard +1

I used to work with a guy who did this all the time, the word "yeah?" was used as a patronising interrogative at the end of every sentence that came out his shouty mouth.

I desperately wanted to tell him that he was (and probably still is) a colossal length, but he was kind of my boss.

People you say "know what I mean?", know what I mean? Know what I mean?

worked with a girl who like you know said like a lot like it was like amazing like

This is why swords are banned in the office....

I hate myself for this as I'm quite erudite for a rudeboy, but I come across as an utter moron.. 😳

scots don't say yeah at the end of their sentences; they say something different, no ?

Didn't the boss in Office Space (Movie) do that?

No.

One for the underrated bands thread too, IMO

No.

No, yeah?, yeah?

I know someone who has virtually the 'Whole Kit Of Uneccessary Words'
And says 'um' or 'erm' a lot too

Quite often a sentence can be:
You know, er, what the, erm weather was like, you know, um, at the weekend, yeah?

I've seriously come to the conclusion that it's a stammer that manifests itself in full words, or some kind of twitch

I know someone who has virtually the 'Whole Kit Of Uneccessary Words'
And says 'um' or 'erm' a lot too

That's me that is..

I've seriously come to the conclusion that it's a stammer that manifests itself in full words, or some kind of twitch

it only came about after a major nervous breakdown in my early 20s so you could be on to something..

One of the blokes I work with does the full double whammy. His every verbal utterance goes as such...

So...*pause*.... insert sentence here... *pause*...... yeah?

The 'yeah?' is obviously delivered with the Australian-style rising inflection, just to guarantee maximum possible annoyance. Luckily I don't have to deal with him often. Which would go some way to explaining why he hasn't yet been beaten to death with his own shoes

God, yeah... 😆

seriously, I would drive some of you mad, you know?

You think you don't already?

[i]seriously, I would drive some of you mad, you know?[/i]

You already do love, you already do.

Other oral annoyances (quiet at the back).

"Can I get.." instead of "I would like/PLease may I have/Can I have..."

'Like' instead of 'said' when describing a conversation.

'Off of' instead of 'from'.

Grr...

So, I think the TV show that, like, prompted this thread was, you know, like, Grand Designs, yeah?

"What it is, is that..."

Slightly more annoying is "OK, so,".

For the full, maximum-annoyingness effect, you need the pause before it - ideally then completely ignoring what the first person said.

No-one I know says yeah at the end of every sentence it's not something I've ever heard tbh

The people I work with in Dud-lay might say it but then again it's hard to tell what they are saying most of the time e.g.
'yow cor spake proper'
'ar berrits cowd on that biyke ayit'

etc

You'd love these guys.
