Phrases/terms that need to be retired immediately (1 Viewer)

Saw somebody sign off a post using 'nuff said the other day.

You just know it's some pack a day smokin', Harley ridin', gun totin', MMA watchin', camo wearin', government hatin', small peckered jagoff who wrote it.

The know it all tough guy who's been working in a tire shop for 20 years.

ETA: if he just wrote "enough said", I wouldn't give it a 2nd thought, but that damn apostrophe n just sets me OFF
nufced
you rang?
:lmao:

Where do we fall on "Good times?" Time to put it down?
Agreed but what do I use in its place?
I'm guessing that "living the dream" is kaput now as well?
I dropped that a while ago for "looking good, Billy Ray!/Feeling good, Louis!"
I like it. Help me use it properly. Do you change your voice?
I do - usually fake shouting the first line and almost whispering the second one to myself.

"Diligence" used as a verb. "I'll diligence that and get back to you." :rant:
Gotta be a legal thing. I've never heard this.
:no: Heard it twice in meetings today from two different people, neither of them lawyers. Maybe it's a Memphis thing. I don't remember hearing this in Chicago.
Is this short for 'due diligence'?That phrase needs to go away too. It's called doing your damn job.

For realz? Peeps drop dat?Buncha fools at the end of the day.
"For realz""Peeps"
That should have never been introduced to American English vernacular. Peeps is still acceptable if it is being used in the context of your dog talking about you and your family.
puffed neon easter candy down?

I think this is the crux of shuke's protest.

Lawyers screw up the English language in plenty of ways of their own; but that one sounds like misguided business jargon.

I've got my kid conditioned when I play-choke her to say "it was the Dukes, it was the Dukes!"
 
saying "command" instead of "control" when talking about a baseball pitcher and his pitches, command just sounds so overdone now because EVERYONE uses it...i think it's time to move on from this already, it's overdone now because I'm hearing it at the little league level too...really? A pitcher doesn't "command" pitches, he controls them.

I'm more of a Dumb and Dumber fan so I have my son trained to say "Harry, your hands are freezing"
