Re: Phrases that get up my nose!!!

A couple more to add to the frustrating comments list ......

"Get a life"! (how RUDE)


When asked about something you will not want to do - "You'll like it" - When I have just told them I will not!


Asking someone who is acting distant if they are alright and they reply with stiff sarcasm; "I'm Fine"! (Well how is whatever the problem going to be resolved)???


Come to think of it the term; "Whatever" to any question!


"Ok" at the end of nearly every sentence.


"Don't say anything, this was told me in confidence" - (So why are you telling me, it's confidential to YOU)!

Fire in their belly?-perhaps they needed gaviscon!!
