Jumping to the phone... and other phrases you hate

[vampyre]

Buttery soft and thank heaven there are others here who feel the same.

 

[BlueNowhere]

ha haaa this is a great website...comments above so true...thanks everyone for stating the obvious ))

 

[Jan]

In actual fact.
Basically.
To my mind.

Plus a lot of the others already mentioned.

 

[rosielinks]

You'll come back to again and again
this will be a favourite
let's dip in
These have been so popular

 

[sublime]

'I NEED YOU on those phones ... '

[Or I'll spontaneously combust in a massive, multicoloured explosion of foundation and lippie.]


'It's sold out! Well done if you got yours ...'

[Patronising, me? Good heavens, no, these little people need to feel that by giving us their money, they've achieved something.]

 

[Whatsinaname]

What about "buying into the brand". Really annoys me - another Glen Campbell special.

"For that cruise, that special occasion...." (that night at the pub, that trip to Aldi...) yawn, yawn....

 

[ceejay]

The way Ann Dawson says very slowly ...... is yourrrrrrr item nummmmmmmmber.grrrrrrrr

 

[silversequin]

"go for" no, you mean "buy" and "we are giving you......" no you are not GIVING me anything (well apart from a laugh!) you are trying to SELL me something. They are as coy about the vocabulary of sales as the victorians were about sex!!! Guess it would be all too sordid if they really mentioned money a lot......

This coat is perfect to throw on when you're for taking the dog for a walk, doing the school run, having a coffee with girlfriends - then add a scarf or a 'statement' piece of jewellery and you're good to go for dinner or the theatre, dress it up dress it down, this piece is really going to work for you.

Glen Campbell, I hate you.

That Liz Earle woman has just said "and if you are gifting this for Christmas".....

GIFTING??!!! Is this is a real word? I don't think so! :disgruntled:

Also, "you're loving this"..... sounds grammatically incorrect to me :thinking2:

 

[ERICS MUM]

* flying off the shelves
*officially limited stock
*you have the blue, you have the red, you have the teal, you have the mocha etc etc

[Starlight]

[calico]

When AY insists on saying "Packaging & Postage" when everyone else says it the other way round...............:33:
