Topic starter
 

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." ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

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 ๐Ÿ™

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

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!
