Over used words

[anonymous-user]

Everything good is now epic.

A new idea is a game changer, but the game has changed so many times we don't know what the benchmark is.

Every good car is sublime..

Any others

[HootersGsy]

Of.

Far too often seen where it has no right to be.

[hornetrider]

I literally laughed my arse off.

Oh no you didn't.

Anything Clarkson's said over the past 10 years and the unnecessary splitting up of sentences. Frequently.

[Antony Moxey]

Absolutely instead of simply yes drives me into a murderous rage. It seems as well that no-one under 30 can construct a sentence or have a conversation without a liberal sprinkling of 'like', ''literally' or ''totally'. And it also seems as though the word very has been replaced by the word super these days too.

'Gotten' - an awful American word that should be banned anywhere else.

[leigh1050]

Awesome

[JagerT]

Going forward,when used in a meeting/presentation etc.

bd, tt, , wker, prick, ahole, sthead, dhead.

All overused around me!

[crankedup]

Apparently everything is a 'crisis' but only Lefties use the term.

[marmitemania]

So. It seems to be the default start to every sentence. Tim. Did you have a great holiday? 'So it was like really awesome'. Just fk off and die with your SO.

Oh and just to add, everything nowadays is premium. Premium Coffee, Premium breakfast cereal, premium fking loo bleach.

[HairyMaclary]

Chavvy

Everything is ing chavvy these days?!?

[Johnnytheboy]

Exclusive.

Example: there is a giant new development of little box houses near Bridgwater which is advertised with a big hoarding; this describes it as "an exclusive development of 2,3 and 4 bedroom houses".

In what way exclusive? Who or what does it exclude?

The excessive use of that word in conversation is highlighted by Darcey Bussell every Saturday and Sunday night on Strictly Come Dancing.

"That was just sooooooooooooooooooo amazing"

Literally was my first thought as well, even though I know people use it to emphasise what they're saying.

I particularly like Jamie Redknapp's overuse of it, including: In his youth, Michael Owen was literally a greyhound.

'gotten' annoys the fk out of me too. Seems to have really increased in popularity over the past year
