    The use of the word “so” at the start of a sentence or introduction. On “ Pointless” most young people use “so” ( which means “ therefore “ or “ as a result of “) to introduce themselves. 
    Alexander Armstrong: “ Podium one, who are you and where are you from? “
    Contestant. “So I’m Nigel from Croydon “. Meaning “ Therefore I’m Nigel from Croydon. “ or “ As a result of I’m Nigel from Croydon”.

    It’s another American one. It’s so fucking patronising and smug. “I mean, I think what you said is disgusting, but you do you.” 

    How about I do you? With a fucking spade to the face?

    Success criteria.
    This seemingly helpful bollockspeak normally precedes the ‘reason’ why you’re now failing at something that you were apparently doing perfectly well before some dick has come along who is keen to create an entirely unnecessary new department headed by themselves. 
    Not that I’m bitter and twisted internally by any previous workplace experiences, you understand.🙄🙂

    Often times


    You and I are going to get along just fine. Can’t believe I didn’t say this earlier. It’s another one that’s crept into America and can fucking stay there. 

    As opposed to fucking what? Often means time you moron. There isn’t a single use of it that wouldn’t work without the ‘times’. It’s fucking redundant.

    Premiership players response at the start of an interview. 
    I’ve thought about this before. I think people do it when they don’t want to talk about that subject or to the person asking the question. It reveals a reluctance or negativity on their part.

    Definitely, listen to Deli Alli or Harry Kane being interviewed.

    Reporter will ask a question, definitely is the first word of the reply.

    I've lived in America since 1972, I've never heard this. Might be a West Coast "thing".

    At 6 you think you're parents are gods.
    At 16 you think they are idiots.
    At 26 you're surprised by how much they've learned in only 10 years.

    Dave Bassett always used to say that when he was a co-commentator or pundit.
