my mom has a weird one. "And that". She starts every sentence with it. My only guess is that she is trying to tie in her completely irrelevant statement with whatever you just said.

"yadda, yadda, yadda" recently got added to my list. Just a way of making it sound like there is supporting evidence that, in fact, does not exist.

The one that P!SSES me of the most is a saying I have heard dang near my whole life from almost everyone I have ever known:

"Those that can, do. Those that can't, teach.

I really, really hate that saying.

Wolverine, your quote is hilarious. I had no idea marsupials were so scary! LOL

I don't like "Just do it." Nice for selling shoes, but otherwise a rather useless piece of advice.



Or "I can speak to that." Great. Not only are you the most annoying coworker I've ever met, you also admit to speaking to inanimate objects and expect me to be impressed by that.



Someone already mentioned "Don't worry, be happy." I always reply that I will do just that, right after my frontal lobotomy is performed.



How about when someone greets you by saying, "Word!" Uh-huhhhhh....



I must be getting old!

"Collaborative effort"... if this doesn't appear on your resume, you don't want the job.

"Team player"... another must on your resume. It doesn't mean a thing anymore because everyone knows it is a required phrase.

I hate it when someone says 'Can I ask you a question?' I'm sure you've just defeated the object and done it already :-5

And someone who tries to quicken a sentence with 'blah blah blah' :lips:

People who start a sentence with 'Guess what?' :thinking:
