Here's one for the ladies to answer; is the word "broad" offensive to you? I have a feeling there's going to be a strong generational or regional component to the answers.
In my outfit, we were told to immediately stop calling the chicks broads. (Old joke, ladies)  |

Broad. I wouldn't touch that word with a 10 foot pole. Broad as in "Honey, do these jeans make my butt look big?" I can get by with a lot at my age but I can't run  . Oss. In Indiana it's 'you guys' and youts are youths. I liked "My cousin Vinney." |

instead of saying "your welcome", you get "not a problem".
And "your welcome" should've been "you're welcome." The term "your" being possesive as opposed to "you're" being a contraction of the two words "you are." Earlier I saw a post using the word "to" when it should have been "too." Awww nuts, let's talk about the weather, we'll have weather, whether or not! |

My dad's pet peeve was folks who said reiterate when they hadn't yet iterated.
It makes my skin crawl when folks say "fire plug". To the best of my knowledge, the modern version is a "fire hydrant" and "fire plugs" are not seen much anymore. Yes, there really is a difference.

The most annoying to me are the people who have seemingly replaced all known adjectives with one - and it's one that is not acceptable in polite society.
Exactly how much useful information is one to expect to acquire when the statement is along the lines of "the f'ng dude was driving an f'ng truck and he was f'ng flying down the f'ng road"? Would it not have been more useful to say that a man driving a large red Ford dually was driving at dangerous speeds on Interstate 10? or whatever (sorry, couldn't resist!!)

The word 'progressive' generally is the preface to a lie.
Oh yeah.... as a kid "this will hurt me more than you' was also generally extremely untruthful.

Referring to something made of CONCRETE as cement. Example, I have a cement driveway. Really?? Cement is an ingredient in the final product, the CONCRETE!! Just a really dumb pet peeve of mine.  I was going to say the "prolly" one but someone beat me to it.  |

I find myself getting increasingly annoyed when I hear individuals turn requests into demands when they say, "You NEED to....." Whatever happened to making a polite request as in, "Could you please.....?", or "I'd like you to....."? Whenever I hear someone say, "You NEED to....." I am so tempted to tell them to STFU and demand that tbey NEED to ask politey but then that would be rude of me. You get the gist of my rant |

I hate, hate, HATE "24-7".
The big evasion that makes my skin crawl is "A high level source in the administration (White House, mayor's office, police headquarters, government, VRCC etc)". The press can say whatever they want, true or not, by saying this with legal protection for themselves and the "source", whether they exist or not.
Give me a name and a quote or shut the F*** up!

Oh here's one that pisses me off; when someone's trying to convey a stretched out word and they repeat the consonant. Example: "Ruuuuuuuuun!" as "Runnnnnnnnn!". Do you realize how silly that would sound? |

Ye-yah! Reeaaallllyyyy Sillllyyyyy!! Not so much a phrase, but total misuse of a word - penultimate. Most think it's even better than ultimate, like the best there ever was!! We even had a book store (you'd think they'd KNOW better!!), owned by Penultimate Enterprises. Penultimate - 2nd from the bottom - Next to the last. 1. Rock 2. Paper 3. Scissors 4. Hand Grenades The penultimate object is Scissors. The Cubs, as of the 7th... |
