Things people say that annoy the F out of you

[thelurkylulu]

If my friend says “different seasons of life” one more time, I am going to lose my everloving mind. “She’s just in a different season of life. This season of life is so tough! It’s so funny how we are in different seasons of life right now!” OMFG just stoppppp.

Also, “let me unpack that for you” must be the podcast phrase of the month.

I started watching Instant Hotel on Netflix and Leroy keeps saying, "The devil is in the details and the devil's not there."

Leroy, it's time to stop.

Well, I know it drives my H crazy when I say "it is what it is".

At work, there is this one manager who every time we have a telephonic meeting says repeatedly the first few minutes "we're still gathering". I don't know why, but it annoys the heck out of me.

Let’s take a deep dive.

A colleague makes CONSTANT training analogies using a toaster. Stuff about how "You can't show them how to use a toaster unless you have the toaster to show them" - and stuff like that.

OMG! SHUT UP WITH THE TOASTER!!!!

[puppylove64]

I hate when people say “it is what it is”

I get it, but damn it is annoying

[steph96]

It’s just the nature of the beast.

When my H and I talk about something we're going to do in the future, he always ends the discussion with "we can talk about it." No. WE ARE talking about it. RIGHT NOW.

Oh my goodness, yes! My H does the same thing. We've made a decision, there is nothing to talk about. And when I bring it up later he acts like we never decided on anything. So damn annoying.

I'm pretty over this theme of "self care" on social media that basically implies anything a mom or woman wants to do for herself is this great luxury that they have to make time for. Like, people feeling like they have to justify getting a pedicure or just sitting on the couch all night.  Just say you wanted new toe nail polish color, you don't have to #selfcare every time!

Love me some {fill in the blank}

It drives my H nuts when I say “or no” in a question. Like - Did you eat lunch yet or no?

It must be something from the town from where I grew up because my two HS besties say it too.

It would prob drive me nuts to hear someone else say it 🤣🤣

God only gives you what you can handle.

I know people mean well and usually say it when they don't know what else to say, but seriously...shut the fuck up. Sometimes it's okay to just say, "I'm sorry that shitty things are happening to you." instead of trying to summon inspiration.

"It's the Bees knees!"   said by my 26 yr old Step Daughter.    

I hate that phrase with a passion. 

[georgeharrison]

At work: "going forward" or "next steps." I heard these two phrases in pretty much every meeting.

[TR]

Today? Anything, lol. All the words.

[gummy]

Anytime someone mispronounces a word by adding letters that don't belong or rearranging the spelling:

SwifTer instead of Swiffer
ChipoLte instead of Chipotle
DramaStically instead of dramatically

You get the idea.

[maddiepaddy]

I cannot stand hearing or reading “just sayin’ “ or “just saying”. It grates so, so much. It’s a stupid disclaimer and I hate it.

ALL THE THINGS! I forgot about that one. 😂

On social media when people are crowd-sourcing something and they say, “and GO!”

[flygirl]

We have an HR person who says “sure, sure” to acknowledge everything you say whether it’s good or bad.

[mrsfarmer]

"Circle Back", "Take it off-line" and "Reach out"

[lucybrown]

At work, "Best practices". Just no. Overplayed.

Adding "Just sayin'" makes me automatically assume you're intentionally being an asshole. 

[CrazyLucky]

At work: Thank you for sharing that when you say something they don't want to hear.
At home: Almost everything my mom says. I'm so lucky to have a DH that cooks dinner and is involved with the kids. MissourA. She tells me things like it's my brother's birthday. I KNOW when my brother's birthday is mom!

"Let's put that in our 'Parking Lot'." aka graveyard for questions that are actually GOOD or will reveal a downfall in the plan...

Yes this drives me nuts. It’s always the same three people -

Hive mind - i need xyz. And go!

🙄

[onomatopoeia]

When people say "I fell in love with ___something material___!" As in, I fell in love with these shoes and had to buy them! Ugh.

So glad I'm out of big corporate so I don't need to learn anymore.
