[Omnituens]

'It'll turn out ok, everything always does!'

WTF^^? if i dropped a grand piano on your head, would you turn out all right? no.

Bloody optimists.

And another this that annoys me... this new word for noob.. same as the tip of a pen

WTF

stfu!

the word yeah, but pronouced with the following changes: -ah +r
does my nut in.

or when people pronouce words ending with -ey like this
monkeh
funkeh

GAH!

im going to be here all night at this rate editing this 1 post.

[metalangel]

If someone starts saying 'At the end of the day...' quickly interrupt them with, 'it's night.'

Ha HAA!!

Yes, I know someone already said that.

I highly object to multiple gestures of gratitude, like 'cheers, thanks', or 'cheers, thanks, ta'. Or when you thank the clerk at the checkout desk, and they thank you. Hello? Someone here should NOT be expressing the gratitude, but who?

(oh and most annoying one for me personally is, "so what part of America you from then?" :mad: )

[Marx]

ingame/forums:

1.) Spam
2.) Keep it in game
3.) Edited by...

[Dissenter]

When people ask you to do/use something that is not working.

You say its not working, and they say:

Are You Sure?



Hmm let me fucking think, I'm stood here trying to use it but its not working, oh but wait, I'm not sure, quick call fucking Sherlock Holmes.

[darknessfairy]

"my bad"

At the end of the day....
....I will kill you in your sleep
....You'll be leaving and ill never have to see you again?
....I'll be giving you multiple paper cuts to the eye lids ;)
....SHUT THE FUCK UP! IT IS THE END OF THE DAY - IT'S 11PM FOR FUCKS SAKE. WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???

[Vila]

"I got perioid"

[Wellard]

when people who lost something, use the phrase -

"why is it always in the last place I look?"

[Neocrons_coward]

u know whats really a\nnoyingh about british pigs.. I mean the police...

I watched the bill last night as my shift at work came to a close and they were dressed as officers and they shouted


STOP POLICE

its like nah u dont say.... fuck me i thought u were the smaritians.. I think thats one annoying thing about the police...

[Organics]

People who say "Yeah?" at the end of every sentence, and who being each sentence with "like". :mad: :mad: :mad:

I think hrhrhr originates from the fact that it's easy to make hehehe a hrhrhr typo cos the letters are right next to each other on the keyboard.

Sometimes I do "lol" as "kik" cos I miss the keys. :D

[Psyco Groupie]

goto a LAN party and marvel at all the people saying 'lole' or 'roffle' :P

[edited - spam]

[Possessed]

"'innit", fucking townies.

Not a phrase, but that is what gets under my skin the most....

[Darkborg]

"rawr"
I so hate people who use that it sounds so unbelievably creepy over voice.
And of course that has biased me against in it chat as well.

i think hrhrhr comes from
hawrhawrhawr

[steweygrrr]

oh my farking god do I hate townies and that phrase.

I say raaaawr a lot but Im just weird anyway O_o 8|
Another one that bugs me is when people start the sentence off with, and continue to use every five words or so, the word 'basically'.

*sits back and waits for Fang to explode again*

[Judge]

Blimey, that Maddox dude is very.... aggressive. He doesn't seem to see much past certain sterotypes and cliches.

I hate:

'innit' - God damn townies
'^^' - Huh?


people who ask you this question as you enter the room:

'You back then?'

WTF, of course im back i just entered the fucking room!

All those sorts of "questions" I hate. I just tend to answer sarcastically to anyone who says that, or give them a really sarcastic stare.... it helps if you can raise one eyebrow.

[subsys]

rememind me never to talk to any of you, i would seriously piss you off, i think everyone has posted somthing that i say occasionally :)

@ df, the reason everyone presumes your male is because of the massive number of blokes who pretend to be birds, so as soon as you say your female the automatic assumption is that you a ageing bald man from doncaster who likes to "role play" or is that just me? :)

nothing against doncaster btw

and on topic pwned i fucking hate that word, my flatmate says it all the fucking time and hes from ni so it sounds even worse :)

edit : spelling > me

[Psyco Groupie]

^^ is like scandinavian net slang for :) .. afaik

[metalangel]

^^ is the compressed version of ^_^ which is an emoticon derived from the anime expression of HAPPY!

Observe:

http://www.anime.net/~goemon/gallery/mihoshi.jpg

[Clownst0pper]

I hate it when everyone says "To be honest"

at the start of every sentence.

"innit"

"Basically"

"Dont be ******" - maybe my most hated

And my favourite

HAVE U EVER KISSED A GIRL???

[metalangel]

I seem to have found the rest:

-- blue-sky thinking
-- it’s not rocket science
-- crack troops
-- between a rock and a hard place
-- I hear what you’re saying
-- touch base
-- bear with me
-- to be honest with you
-- like
-- touch base
-- ballpark figures
-- bottom lines
-- singing from the same hymn sheet

It's all business-o-speak. And therefore, hateful.

[Cerebus]

You are all invited to my next meeting at work.

Please bring your own weapons ;)

[darkservent]

Two i have in mind:

"BLAD"

"WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION" as quoted by blair/bush couple.

But i especially hate hrhrhr, only stupid people say that.

on the contrary i have an iq over 130 and i occasionally say it. it amuses me so bums to you :p

edit: no particular phrase pisses me off. the only thing that winds me up is when people turn a statement into a question (southerners do this a lot) and also people who have been travelling around australia for some bizarre reason. in any event i have to ask them to stop doing it, which probably explains why i dont get very far into many conversations o_O

[Kugero]

Dude, like, "intestinal fortitude" used out of context ...

holy crap that really "get's my goat" :mad:

I don't see what everyone has against people saying "dude". Are you allowed to say it if you are a teenager with long hair?

[Kugero]

I don't see what everyone has against people saying "dude". Are you allowed to say it if you are a teenager with long hair?

heh nah Judge I grew up close to the beach so it was just part of my slang (btw I had long hair). I still say it all the time. In fact I caught myself talking to my boss:

Boss: "OK I need to you reboot the server right now cause I can't read my email"
Me: "Dude! you do realize that will kick all 500 other people out of their email ..."

always used to mean fat as in lard arse but know the crazy kids of today it could be anything

its also a band but i doubt thats got anything to do with it

[Ryuben]

only slang word that annoys me is

"fat"

e.g. omg thats fat man


dunno why just makes me want to slap them with a wet trout

[Psyco Groupie]

thats a diff word 'phat' :)

[Organics]

Originally posted by Psyco Groupie

Still just as annoying, even more so since it's spelt "phat" :mad:

Bloody kids.

finally someone agrees with me.

[Delloda]

ppl saying everything with "so he does" or something of the same strain after it. ppl say it a lot in glasgow. neddy cunts.

e.g.

he's a good guy, so he is.
she was so stupid, so she was.
its a good laugh, so it is.

fucking annoying as hell. :mad:

[StrongSad]

"omgomgomg!!!111oneone"

Ok, it started with maybe one or two "1"s at the end as a typo. The lame-asses of course added far to many "1"s, then "one", now even "eleven". Adding a "1" at the end of "!!!" was funny like 10 months ago. Nobody makes a typo such as this, "wtf??!!!!1oneone". Therefore when someone intentionally types it they look like a total fucktard. Please stop.

Ahh. I feel better.

PS-So I guess we are supposed to know a person is a chick simply by having fairy in their name. LOL. Yes, women play "puter" games, but maybe at like a 1:1,000,000 ratio. Therefore I appologize for any future ignorant assumptions on my behalf. :rolleyes:

I know of six females actively playing NC. I think the ratio would be more like 1:50 or so, maybe even less. I'm willing to accept the fact that I could be dead wrong. ;)

[Dim]

"You're looking good for your age..."

Like saying you smell good for someone who stinks. o_O

I'm willing to accept the fact that I could be dead wrong.

You sir are very wrong.... :p

[Elroy Jetson]

PPL CAN SAY WHAT THEY WANT, AS LONG AS I KIND OF UNDERSTAND, I JUST HATE WHEN THEY TYPE IN ALL CAPPS.

[Spoon]

1) ffs
2) cba(can't be arsed)
3) bullocks
4) bits and bobs
5) crisps/chocs(food)
6) tosser
7) buggered/knackered
8) loo
9) sod this/that/all/off
10) skint

*bonus words*
git/twit/muppet

Pretty irritating to say the least.......:rolleyes:

Trunk
Rubber
Sidewalk
Chips

Stick your rubber coat in the trunk so it doesn't rub on the sidewalk, people always dump their fa.gs there in front of this fish & chips place.

:p

[Aziraphale]

'Fit' and 'Buff' are my current most hated words.

Oh, and 'bare' or 'bear' im not sure which.
As in "I'm gonna make bear money!"

Although it funny when someone remarks that there are 'bear people' out there.

[LumLum]

Yep Fit and Buff I hate too, I'm English.

and I've never come across that Bear money, Bear people thing?


What does everyone think about the word Bog - Toilet.
