"I'm not racist but..."
"Basically..."
"So..."
I hate the word "munch" when used as a noun...

eg. "gonna go for a munch", "fancy grabbin a munch?" "can't wait to get home and have a munch".

URGHHH it just makes me shudder. :lolwut:

Any accent that pronounces words the way the dictionary says they should be pronounced


Personally I think the RP accent is old-fashioned and pretentious. Just because someone decides this is the way a word should be pronounced, doesn't mean its correct. Its just deemed the standard pronunciation by a handful of people.

Also, the standard accent changes over time. The midland accent used to be considered the standard, but now Southern English is.

RP isn't the 'correct' accent, it's just the standard. There are many variations, but that's not to say they are incorrect. Just different varieties of English.
People who say 'totesamazeballs' definitely aren't on my playlist for friends. It makes no sense, and is as bad as saying 'hashtag' before a word/phrase.

"awww Bless"
"that's lovely"

seriously want to smack someone anytime they say that
I feel an unbelievable urge to maim the users of "reem", "yar" (inability to just say "Yes"), "init". I also hate certain individuals' need to have the last word, even when they just start muttering "Oh really?" and "Is that right?" or "I don't think so.". Very annoying.

The joys of previously living in Essex. :rolleyes:
Mandem, mannaman

Does anyone even know what these mean?

I hate it more because the people who say this are just nobodies - nobody could possibly hate on the most average person...
