wardrobe malfunction

Amazing.. everything can't be amazing or the word itself loses it's impact (same with awesome)

Absolutely.. it is simply used too often

Out of the box.. get a new corporate catch phrase already

Revisit.. we aren't going to revisit it, we're going to discuss it further, analyze it, investigate it, etc. I didn't "visit" it in the first place!

I'll absolutely revisit this thread when I'm not so amazingly tired and I can think out of the box.

I agree, I am getting tired of hearing this word. Like on the SoapCity commercial...annoying.

Also,

Crunch time
You go Girl
cool beans

My least favorite word is "Java"

If you call coffee "Java", you deserve a scaulding cup of it in the face... :mad:

Pollitically Motivated

When we're dealing with politics EVERYTHING is politically motivated.

ETA: Next person on GC to use the phrase politically motivated when discussing politics will getting a beating from my shoe!

Okay, so mine is not really like y'alls, but I don't like the "P" word -- not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.

umm yea iknow- my best friend says that all the time- and i say it back to her- i'm like- waht- you couldn't waste the extra breathe saying the rest of the word??

i absolutely can't stand it when people write 2 for to- or u for you when typing online- and when its handwritten- thast just sad....oh and boi or gurl?? its the same amount of letters... what planet are you from?

ok... another grammatical rant- i'm also an english minor- and i'm pretty tolerant of most htings- but people... please learn the different means for your and you're... and i really hate their, there and they're.... ones a possessive... one is for direction and the other is they are! how hard is that..

i have to say i am pretty guilty of using like all the time... it is a really bad habit and i am trying to break myself of it- but its not too effective and i'm almost 21 and i sound as if i am in high school.... eek :(

"whatever"

I HATE when people say that!!!

Share/sharing/ let's share....

networking

my pet peeve words
 

incentivize

orientate

when people say el pollo loco, and don't pronouce it "poi-yo" (rather, they pronounce it "Paul-o")

communications (the word communication is both singular and plural. There is no such thing has "having communications" with other ... or working in "communications." It's communication. Capeesh?) It is very irritating to see academic institutions bastardizing this word to describe their programs.

"like, you know"

Re: Re: Re: Hmmm....
 

You know, if you're going to rag on people's grammar (and I do agree with you about bad grammar being annoying), you may want to proofread your post. No offense or anything, but I thought I would bring that to your attention.

Re: Solutions are a problem
 

OMG!!! I am so sick of the word solution! All you hear about now are "internet solutions" and "office solutions" etc etc etc. Nothing is a service anymore, it's all "SOLUTIONS!" Um, I don't have a problem, I don't NEED a solution!

I also start foaming at the mouth every time I see ALOT. I know, I know, many GCers are guilty of this and it is going to seem like a personal attack, but it is so incorrect and drives me crazy. My thing is, why "alot?" Does that mean every word preceded by the article "A" gets blended into one? For example, in November the hubby and I bought ahouse in areally beautiful development. We were so happy to be able to get in this neighborhood without having to spend afortune.

The last thing is the whole "izzle" thing. I never understood it anyway and now it's really played out.

"the issues"

They're not the issues, they're your issues. Implying that everyone who doesn't share your political agenda is inhuman, is illiberal.
