Words, usages, and phrases that annoy the shit out of you...

will this be the catalyst for the inevitable schism

lol @ "This is disturbing" for real?

mark me down for the need to FEEL DEEPLY AND PUBLICLY about every single subject known to man, including how people use insignificant acronyms. yall, why so emo?

maybe his life is the greatest most stress free life anyone has ever known and this really is the most disturbing thing he has ever encountered

Have you never come across jokey hyperbole before?

i have and the more i do the more it annoys the shit out of me. hence the inclusion on this thread.

it actually causes u to defecate?

literally

Missed you deems

"The media won't show you..."

“In my humble opinion” predates the internet, right?

Sounds like a civil servant phrase, totally

In my experience IMHO is often tweaked to IMNSHO for "in my not-so-humble opinion."

So would partisans on the "honest" side read IMNSHO as "in my not-so-honest opinion"?

I mean, WTF?

(by the way WTF can either stand for What Tiny Frogs or Wet Tinsel Failures)

this is like a mini version of The Dress

the dress was 96 RAF Matt Blue in my humbrol opinion

applause

IT'S HUMBLE

Look, I know! But I feel like I hear people actually SAY "in my honest opinion, blah blah blah" so I'd be inclined to believe that there's a reasonable chance many or most are in that camp. I could be way off.

in my fictionalized opinion

in my humdrum opinion

people say "do you want my honest opinion?" but I have seldom heard "in my honest opinion"

Yeah that and “I’ll give you my honest opinion” are constructions that people actually use, nobody says “in my honest opinion” really

Whereas “in my humble opinion” as stated above was in common use pre-internet (WAY pre-internet would be my guess)

Have always thought it was honest. :(

Well it is now, by the looks of it!

R ppl being honest??????

i have plenty of dishonest opinions.

wins otm, but what does it matter anyway?

opinions are like assholes, one of the body’s more humble orifices

Wins unfuckwithable as usual

"wrong opinion" is the biggest offender

In more humble orifices

taking sides: in my hairy orifices vs in my hirsute orifices

Honestly Abe held the orifice of president quite humbly

“imwo” has a good ring to it

darragh could deploy it well

lol 'in my wicked opinion'

this doesn’t annoy me but since everyone’s here i have a question: why ‘latinx’ instead of just ‘latin’?

Because it’s non-gender specific and ‘latin’ as adjective has a wider remit than describing people. Also, this is the descriptor Latinx people they keep saying they prefer.

In my waspish opinion.

That was pish in my opinion

Ooh, clever.

I am still kinda sad latinx won out over latin@

it was inspired by Adam’s wrong opinion post

imwo = in my wrong opinion

lol that is awesome

i see "clutching my pearls" all over the internet now and i blame drew matmos. he should be the only person who says that.

"alcohol is a depressant" to mean one can feel depressed when drinking alcohol

Americans describing all drugs of abuse as “narcotics”. Cocaine and amphetamine are not exactly sleep-inducing.

sometimes you really need to concentrate on sleep to get there

"Reaching out".
What happened to just contacting or getting in touch with someone? Reaching out my arse, fucking hell what a precious pile of shite.

Wait, isn't "getting in touch" a similarly euphemistic phrase?

just shorting to 'touching' everyone happy
