A group of yahoos calling demselves The Plain English Campaign have complied a list of the most annoying cliches in the world. But wtf is a “diamond geezer”? Anywho, at the end of the day, “At the end of the day” was voted the most irritating phrase in the English language.
Their list kinda sucks, so here’s my list of irritating words & phrases:
– bling-bling
– metrosexual
– weapons of mass destruction
– show me the money! (an oldie, but still awful)
– Queer Eye for anything
– Skinamax
– 311
– low-carb
– Directed by Gus Van Sant
– You’re fired!
– Duke basketball
– George W Bush, President
– Welcome to Mooseport
– anything Rosie O’Donnell says
And here’s a list of words & phrases that should be used more often:
– bizatch
– You’re the man now dog!
– grundle
– Doesn’t it smell like upyo in here?
– Betamax
– swamp ass
– Rip Torn
– diorama
– Boo-urns
– Lando system or Tashi Station
– the runs
