    My kids whining, 'but you promised'.
  • Describing an ill child as being "full of cold" or "full of temperature" as opposed to simply having one or the other.
  • Cheap at half the price.

    This, it's been done on here before, but anyone who says 'my bad' should be put up against a wall and shot.
    Same with the dickheads who, once they've explained something, say 'simples'. Grade A tossers the lot of em*

    * I have no idea why it pushes my buttons, but it does.
    What a great idea My fucking bad irritates the shit out of me & I would happily pull the trigger (though I don't have a gun officer)

  • My old boss used to say "proactive" practically every sentence. I pointed out to him, there is a perfectly good word in the English language for the opposite of "react". It's "act"...
