Batman1980 · 12-25-2009, 06:33 AM

Just want to see what everyone else thinks, I'm going to go with "sorry".

the F word

bageleaterkkjji · 12-25-2009, 12:42 PM

I rarely hear the word other so I don't think it should be an option

cajmoyper · 12-25-2009, 12:56 PM

I think you should make one titled, "Stupidest/most abused phrases." First would be "half a dozen". Second would be the misuse of the word "literally". Actually, it should be on this list.

GLaDOS · 12-25-2009, 01:14 PM

quirkmanly · 12-25-2009, 01:17 PM

Mine would be "Whatever"....

OpFeRmEtZgER · 12-25-2009, 02:20 PM

indeed

Sussudio · 12-25-2009, 02:34 PM

probably

beefytwinkie · 12-25-2009, 02:35 PM

I'm going to have to say "Like" and "Basically". I hate it when people use the word "basically" to start off a sentence.

To sidetrack a bit, I also grate my teeth whenever sentences are started with "I'm sorry but" and "It's funny because".

Rob71 · 12-25-2009, 02:36 PM

Probably hope or change.

Sorry!

OpFeRmEtZgER · 12-25-2009, 02:39 PM

i probably hope that you basically know what the Eff i´m saying!

(that´s a nice sentence!

)

GeologyNut · 12-25-2009, 02:42 PM

What about the world LIKE!! I hate hearing people repeat it over and over!

Secretagentnumber6 · 12-25-2009, 03:49 PM
