This is polite shorthand for:

"This situation is completely ****ed up and I don't care enough to fix it. But bitching about it isn't going to do any good, so f*** off!"

fyp

you really are an asshole!

irregardless

"OH EMM GEE"

Although after reading this thread I wonder...
Why do you guys hate Idioms so much?

"Cut , it, out " with the scissors cutting, then using the thumb in a backwards motion, the thing uncle Joey from full house did, and pretty much anything that uncle Jesse ever said.

With the (x) pick in the draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select ______.

"real talk"
its like so everything else you say is just fake talk? lol

When people combine different parts of words and mix them in the two.

Tops has to be "It is what it is."

Job related though, it has to be "Do you work here?"

Anytime somebody refers to a scandal as ____gate. Watergate was over 40 years ago, it's time to get a new phrase. A large portion of the audience wasn't even alive when it happened.

This will probably be a dud of a thread, but screw it.

What are some overused phrases that annoy you?

Here's a couple that irk me for no rational reason:

"Across the pond" - I hear a lot of Americans use this phrase when referring to people from England, or just England in general. "Yea, we're headed on a vacation across the pond." Everyone uses this phrase and I hate it. It may have been clever the first time someone said it....but not anymore.

"In the drink" - fisherman use this one. If they're on the boat, and they knock something over and it goes in the water, they'll say it went in the drink. "Damn, my phone fell out of my hand and went in the drink. I'll have to buy a new one.

"Wet our lines/kayaks" - I've heard people use "wet our lines" quite a bit and it never bothered me too much, until I worked on shift with a kayak enthusiast. Any time you asked him what he was doing next weekend, he always said "Oh, I'm gonna go get my kayak wet." Every freaking time. Just got tired of hearing the same phrase.

There's a few more, if I think of them, I'll post them.

You really hate everything that has to do with water, don't you?

'It's a MUTE point'

It's MOOT dummy!

Any phrase out of Hudler's mouth annoys me.

"It's beautiful!"

"You got to go!"

etc

Along with the fact that Watergate is the name of a place.... it wasn't called Nixongate and it wasn't a scandal over water, so WTF is -gate even used? And yeah, it was mildly amusing the first time, but not so much the millionth time.
