What's something dumb that you say in real life?

[Fizzzzle]

Is there a word or phrase that you say, and every time it comes out of your mouth, you're slightly disgusted with yourself? 

 

My little brother, who grew up in Europe, finds it strange how often we use the word "like," and ever since he pointed that out to me I'm really self conscious about it. But I think that word has so many uses. It can mean an emphasized pause, a warning that a simile is incoming so don't take my phrase literally, OR a sign that whatever I'm about to say is completely sarcastic. Depending on how it's used. Or it can just mean I like something. It's a very versatile word.

 

Personally, I unironically say the word "sick" a lot. The problem with that is that sometimes I'll say it in meetings and I think everyone says I'm saying it sarcastically when I'm not.

“Mate” is my defacto term for someone - to the point everyone at works calls each other mate, and it’s filtering out to my family.

I find it annoying as fuck when someone says 'appreciate you'. Just fucking say 'thanks' and be done with it. 

 

Or at work, when you ask how someone is doing and they respond with 'I'm here...'. 

 

I annoy myself when I'm talking to someone and I have to bring up the weather because I don't have much else to say. 'Supposed to get some rain today' or 'Supposed to start heating back up this week'. Yeah, everybody knows this.

Appreciate you boss.

“Like” is one of those tricky ones because yes, it has a lot of valid uses, but it’s also become a filler word, like “um” or “fuckin’”. 
 

When I’m at work and someone or something makes a loud noise far away from me, I’ll turn to whoever is close to me and say “I didn’t do it!” It barely qualifies as a joke, it never gets any reaction, but I can’t help it.

Lol. That's one exception. Those middle eastern owned party stores still make me feel special.

Or a 'just put that anywhere' when someone drops something.

The big thing that jumps to mind is SF specific but it’s more of what I don’t say. I no longer use gendered pronouns and have replaced them with “my friend” as my default form of address legit everywhere I go, was just saying it in Crete.
 

I know this offends some people and that makes it even better for me.

 

But to things I actually say, my default phrase when someone asks me how I’m doing is a flashback from the marines, “living the dream” I say it to this day.

I think another one is when people ask "how's it going?" and I say "it's going."

I'm guilty of this on occasions. 

 

Other than that, I don't say anything annoying because I'm fuckin awesome.  😎

Everything I say is cringe so there’s that

[GeneticBlueprint]

All my daily vernacular, vocabulary, and common terms and greetings were ingrained in me by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles so

[Commissar SFLUFAN]

I honestly cannot think of anything at all, especially since I actually speak on average less than 300 words per day.  Therefore, I make sure to choose them very carefully.

I work in marketing/advertising so most of my work day is spent talking in corporate speak (which is especially nebulous when it comes to things like brands).

"Silent Cal" is a bloody chatterbox relative to me!

[Bacon]

Not sure. I mean, I start every sentence with "I mean," and "Like," and use "fuckin'," a lot.

 

I also sing a lot but with made-up lyrics. I also chant, IDONTGIVEAFUCK - IDONTGIVEAFUCK YEAH! when I end up doing something naughty, like drinking an energy drink late at night cuz I want the taste.

[stepee]

Oh yeah I definitely use “like” “just” “honestly” “i mean,” “actually” way too much and often in the wrong way

 

I also use “ain’t” a lot and I don’t care. I also use “girlllll” still.

As a person who does the majority of the cooking, nothing annoys me more than that response. It’s nails on a chalkboard for me.

I have personally known 2 people who have done this. One is a major asshole and the other a habitual liar.
