Personally, I...

[milly143]

can't stand it when people say personally when the next word is I. There is no need to say the word personally.

Any other phrases that get your goat?

"I'll try to ..."

which probably means "I won't"

Again, frequently used by politicians who don't seem to appreciate the difference between doing something and 'trying' to do something.

I agree with that one Zeuhl, although I find that can me applied to *most* of the male population. ;o)

Something else I've noticed a lot recently is people using abbreviations that make no sense if you use the full words. For example, "you're be fine". This should clearly be "you'll be fine". I've seen it so often that it can't just be a simple mistake.

[Zeuhl]

Yes we can be very trying

Personally, I would love to stay and continue this discussion, trust me but, I like, have to go out, obviously. I'll try to check it out again later.

;o)

Something to annoy you all there I should think.

how about 'Im not a racist but.....' and then say something racist!

[elstowsnapper]

I hate it when people say "with respect" and then are really rude in the way they knok down what you have just said

[Helenafiona]

I HATE the term 'ORDINARY PEOPLE' used by polititians and anyone remotely well known. SO patronising! This is great having a good moan!

When someone asks you a question then answers it for you all in the same sentence.
ie "are you going out tonight, yes?"
When that happens I don't answer and when asked why I tell them I don't need to because they have already answered for me.
