Somehow flicking through the daily mail website and saw another article about Gina Miller address a " Remoaner " conference. I think the term people using this term should be hit with a mandatory fine though to balance the argument anyone who names leave voters " fascist or racist " should also be hit with the same fine. |  | | |  |

Don't get overly annoyed about word usage, language is an evolving paradigm, mahhn. Repetitive use of a word when speaking does irritate me slightly though. Know a couple of people who include 'like' into every sentence, worse than the y'knowers!
Arks. Hmm, can't say I'd noticed that one. For some (accent?) reason, African Americans tend to say Ax(e), again, not particularly bothered by it.
Oh yeah, for the poster who found the word garbage annoying. A neighbour who is of French Canadian heritage, told me that is was a French word. Not being gifted linguistically, I cannot confirm. [Post edited 14 May 2017 17:53]

I actually quite like 'remoaner/s'.
I think, like gay people and 'queer', we half should claim it.
As has been said on here a few times - like the leavers woulda not moaned if they'd been on the 48 side! |
Its been conveniently forgotten that on the morning the results were coming in, and Farage was expecting defeat, he was calling it a fix and saying he would not accept the result. One narrow, unexpected victory later and "the will of the people" must not ever be questioned! | | | |

Not a new word per se, but people spelling 'lose' as 'loose' annoys the brown stuff out of me. |  | | |

Indeed. His words were something like 'we've lost today, but the fight will go on...'

That's a new one on me.
When is "the get-go" though? Don't you just mean the start? |
I hate "get-go". Why not "start", as you said, or "outset"? Ghastly.
I am not at all keen on "back story" either. What's wrong with "background"?

Uptick - "There's been an uptick in terms of potato sales this month"
Top tip: If you use "Increase" rather than "Uptick" you're less likely to leave people with the idea that you're a massive, massive cu nt. If I ever run my own company, anyone who says "Uptick" in a meeting is going to see a massive uptick in punches to their stupid face. Stop it now. |  |

Glancing at the Daily Telegraph website I see that No 4 in their list of most read stories is "Introducing Gymder, the spornosexual workout app that is absolutely definitely 100pc not about hookups".
Leaving aside the fact that I've no idea what that means, it's the bloody Daily Telegraph
Are retired colonels in Cheltenham and bank managers in Surbiton turning to their lady wives over the breakfast table and saying "I'm just off for a spornosexual workout?" If so, I've changed my mind about Brexit, the sooner we get back to the 1950s the better. | | | |

Can't make my mind up on this one.
Is it describing someone who is big and ugly, in the same was as fugly, or is it for someone with a big willy ? |  | | |

Upcoming.
We were quite happy in this country using 'forthcoming' until Sky decided they had to talk like ESPN Sports Center.
Almost as irritating as their insistence on ending every sentence with "shall we?" Let's go across and hear the latest from Arsenal shall we? Let's hear what Jose Mourinho's been whinging on about now shall we? Let's hear who John Terry has called a fcking black cnt now shall we?
Stop asking me mate, you pay no attention when I shout NO at the television anyway so just fcking get on with it. | | | |

boxercise.
admitted, my wife and daughters all partake in this newly made up sport, but the mangalisation of two legitimate words does grate. i think the term arrived in the early 90's when rich wbanhers still had more money than sense.
previously (using negative terms to describe something positive, was the one that crawled up my rectum.
saying something was 'wicked' or 'bad', when they were neither wicked or bad (as in the negative representation), but rather referring to something being positive and good.
i also used to think the use of the word baboon to describe someone of another/foreign ethnicity was a new thing, but apparently, being racist has been around for some time.
the other thing is the increased usage of american words in the english language.
garbage for rubbish
we buy gas to fill up our cars
sidewalks in kensington
saying 'have a good day' at 3 in the afternoon
an elevator?
aluminum
cookies (they're biscuits, ok?)
the hood and trunk of a car
parking lot
emergency room (it used to be casualty)
french fries
crib
zucchini
cocktail party?? wtf? is that some kind of gay orgy?
fiscal year
soccer
vacation
staycation
sweater
baggage
pay check
mailbox
there are probably many more that can be added, but thats just off the top of my head.
befuddling, isn't it? |
I'm with you all the way on this one mate. It's as though they think, "right, if Americans call it this or that, then that's what the rest of the world should call it". ( Don't get me started on "soccer"). But I would also add, The Holidays. It's f*****g CHRISTMAS !!!! |  | | |
