People who say 'apparently' too much.

People who wear trillby hats, usually muppets with very little personality, and try to make themselves stand out a bit, by wearing such a crazy random hat.

Boggers who seem to think they are scumbags.

People who only talk about their car, or how hard theyve been working all day.

agree with most of what has been said already but theres one offender that REALLY gets on my tits. overuse and misuse of the work LIKE.

'and so he was like 'yeah' and then i was like 'wow' it was like such a like totally random think like....'

arrrrgh!

the single worst offender and the one which makes me seethe is when some fucktard d4 wannabe starts a sentence with the overly exasperated 'I was like 'Oh my gowwwd''
seriously what the fuck is that supposed to mean?

'Actual' and 'actually' drive me to distraction. 'My actual number is...', or 'I'm actually going to the shop just now...'

There is just no need. I know we all have bad habits but CHRIST ALMIGHTY adding extra, nonsensical words and making what should be simple sentences sound unwieldy and retarded, its just INFURIATING!!


AAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Sorry to burst your random bubbles but the word random can be used, by correct English definition, absolutely anywhere a fixed or ordered or preplanned event does not occur whether that involve events or people. It may annoy you but 99% of the very frequent times it is used are absolutely correct.

Further a 'randomer' can refer to someone who is of no consequence to you and can be used to describe anybody that you aren't acquainted with.

No idea how and why both words started getting used so much but I think it's just the switch from rare to frequent use that makes us slightly older people assume that it is now being used incorrectly.

Do, however, agree that it's fairly annoying but so is the overuse of any word or phrase.

Totally not mates.

Keep that beak out Chris.

I just was on Dictionary.com, no sign of Randomer(as I smugly suspected).

Also, for the love of jaysus, don't bring that 'not mates' thing back into currency. I still cringe every time I hear it!

You can use random as a noun if you want. In which case it means 'randomer'.

Okay, here's a pet peeve of mine; people who futilely fight against the natural development of language like as if it has never happened before. Want to give old english or saxon a shot??? Razz

(this is mainly aimed at my mother)

Aye, but that's a rational peeve!

Just ticks me off when someone gets on a high horse about something they're totally wrong about. Two weeks ago I was sat on the bus on the way to the house and two fucking spastics got on at UCD talking about breaking up with a girl, getting away with having given her an STD, her not knowing who it was, him feeling amazing cos he got away with it.....and all of this in the most horrible D4 accent imagineable - utter cunts blabbing on in this supercilious manner for ages. And there's me just trying to enjoy a quite read on the bus, so eventually one of them uses the phrase 'he wants to have his cake and eat it' and then proceeds to start going on and on "yah, yah, yah which loike by the fockin way is loike the stoooopidest expression loike ever, I mean loike what the fock else am I going to do with my cake if I'm not going to eat it loike, what the fock?"

Had a nice peaceful remaining journey after turning around and explaining to the nonce that to have your cake and eat it means that when you've eaten your cake you still have your cake and can keep on eating and having over and over.

Was glad I was half-cut enough to actually do it.

Thats the shot!

I always suffer from 'one often thinks of what should have said' syndrome in situations with obnoxious fucking arseholes like that who need telling. You know the type, they have conversations on the bus or train just for the benefit of other passengers who might happen to hear how cool they are - Yah yah I've been studying like a bawstard Fintan, but it doesn't stop me loike getting absolutely cunted at the weekend or giving those paragliding lessons to those undergrad barbarians. I've just always loike been able to burn the candle at both ends loike'.

What did Royston or whatever his name was say when he'd been 'telt'?

"Oh...eh....roite, roite."

I think they've switched from roysh to roite hoping we'll confuse their ilk for a better breed of human. It's not the way you talk chap, it's just that you're a cunt.
