Gleek - meaning massive Glee fan! The world's most annoying show featuring the world's most annoying, whiny sounding kids. Yuck

Like - you know, when people like, they have to like think about what they are going to say, and when they're like, thinking, they like have to keep saying like. Like, like, DISLIKE!

Facebook - increasingly, people are sending me Facebook messages and wall posts instead of texts.. why does the world need to know that you want to know how i am, or when we are meeting up? TEXT ME!

THIS! And It's usually a girl I'm messing with posting, "I miss you," trying to bait another girl I might be messing with into replying.....lousy bitch.

Never heard the term Gleek before, but I can see how that could get annoying fast.

"My Wii collects dust" and its variations. Not only is not true but old, boring, stale and stupid.

So when they say their Wii is collecting dust, they're lying? and can't possibly be telling the truth?

Or is Wii dust proof?!


Or you know what I mean =P

"uber", because it makes you look like you are too stupid to hit the key to the right of the P to spell this word properly.


What, åber?

I don't think you quite understand how this works.

"I could care less" - So you care a great deal?

"LMAO" - No, you're not, or you would need immediate medical attention.

"ROFLMAO" - Same as above, but slightly more true, since you'd be rolling on the floor in pain.

"The coalition government" (UK) - WE GET IT, news outlets. The government currently consists of two parties. You don't have to keep reminding us; actually, we'd rather forget. Just "the government" is fine.

"Blue Ocean" when used in reference to the Wii. The ocean isn't blue any more, especially with Kinect and Move around. Also, Malstrom didn't invent the phrase, so stop treating him like some almighty sales prophet. This isn't as bad now as it was around a year ago.

"That's your opinion" and all variants. Of course it's my opinion. That's why I said it. Generally speaking, unless somebody states that something subjective is a fact (which is impossible anyway), it's an opinion.

"Eat crow" - I'm guilty of using this, but the phrase is actually "eat humble pie".

Not really a word or phrase, but just a general annoyance when it comes to language, people using text language through inappropriate media.

Fair enough, you can use it in a text message where it can take a long time to write and you are limited to 150 characters. But please never use it for things like email, that is just unacceptable. It takes longer to think how to type it in text language when using a keyboard and it requires extra brain power on my part to decipher your cryptic writings.

Using text language through inappropriate media benefits no one, stop it!
