Upskill. I'm not 'upskilling' someone, I'm training them.

No, you don't have a "challenge" for me. You have a problem and are trying to make it mine.

So many things. In written form, I hate when someone writes "Period." after they make a point to mean "this can't be argued" or whatever. My good bitch, I don't think you understand how arguing works. 😆

"Full stop" is a close second.

"Live. Laugh. Love." or similar.

i know i'm being a but i despise the term 'taxpayer funds'/'taxpayer money'. besides being completely wrong in nearly all cases, it places taxes above the people, above labor.

'American taxpayer is paying for the genocide in Gaza'. No, every person/entity using U.S. Dollars is paying for it. Even foreign countries are indirectly paying for it.

Using the phrase "serious question" or "honest question" will make me immediately assume your question is the exact opposite of that. Probably I'm overreacting, but expecting that anyone might respect that declaration you've made about your own question, that gives me narcissist vibes.

im still a bit salty about 'literally'

also the constant failure to say 'i could not care less' correctly

Places using "gluten-friendly" to mean "gluten-free". I am gluten-UNfriendly. I do not want gluten. They've tried to be cute and actually managed to make the term mean the opposite of what it's supposed to.

"Irregardless"

It's not a word but '...' ok... thanks... I guess...

What do you want? Is it on our do you want something else? It's fine...

Cmon.................

"I'm just sayin'" ok but you're still an asshole.

People using double negatives incorrectly. Like "I didn't do nothing!"

If someone uses the word 'curate' they'd better be preparing to show me a shoebox filled with their favorite vaseline glass and not a pile of random deli meat on a wooden board

I work as a barista and get much too annoyed by people ordering a "regular coffee".

Like I know that 99.999% of the time they mean a drip/filter coffee (excluding that one lady that one time who was surprised I didn't parse "regular coffee" as a latte), but like can you just say drip coffee? Or even simply "coffee"!

I honestly don't even know why it annoys me this much.

The corporate overenthusiasm "LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO".

Ugh. Sure, maybe the product launch went great, but still. Ugh.

Ironically, the phrase "rustles my jimmies" really burns my biscuits.

I had a young coworker who reported to me and a few others, for a few months earlier this year. She would come in and say ‘that being said,…’ all the fucking time. I heard it at least once or twice per brief conversation with her. I think she was just trying to sound smart… but, it was like nails on a chalk board to me.

People ending sentences with “rn”.

Queer. Not all gay men (the one group I can safely speak about) like to be associated with an ex-slur and its connotations.

I unreasonably hate the word "moreover". I see no reason why you wouldn't use the words "also", "additionally", or even "furthermore" that sound way better when read.

People thinking their clever by making up words that already have a meaning.

"Lawfare" meaning chargingnrich white assholes for the crime they committed

"Disinformatsiya" or however libs spelled it to mean pointing out the hypocrisy of American nationalists.

"Sanewashing" to describe media putting their thumb on the scale for the fascist who wants to cut their taxes.

It implies it's a new phenomenon and not just the current version of whatever propoganda apparatus has been chugging along for decades.

Liberals complain about "sanewashsing" and then in the same breath talk about how cheyney and bush weren't exactly the fucking same as Trump.

you can't just say Perchance
