I used to work with a young woman who always used mixed metaphors. Instead of saying "she bore the brunt of it" or "she got the short end of the stick", she would say, "She got the brunt end of the stick". there were many more like that but that's the one I remember.

Right now, my 13 yo DD uses "like" after every other word she speaks. DH calls her his little "Valley Girl". I hate to constantly pick at her, but this habit needs to end!

Oh I second this!! That is the dumbest saying I have ever heard. I threatened Nicole the other day to make her write "I'm sorry, my mistake" 50 times if I heard her saying it again.

My 5th grade english teacher, everytime we said something like "Where is the garbage can at?" he'd make us pay a penny in the jar. at the end of the year he gave us an Ice cream party with the jars of pennies

My MIL says "on the medium" instead of median and "in the addict" instead of attic

I was once engaged to a man who drove me crazy by saying "My moms" as in "My moms went to the store." No, he did not have more than one

As kids, whenever my mother heard us end a question with "at", she always had the same response.

For instance:

Me: "Where's Heather at?"
Mom: "Between the A and the T."

I still have no idea what that meant, but I knew why she said it. LOL

Chicken fried chicken. DS says this. I've told him many times that if he just says "fried chicked" I will know exactly what he is talking about and I will not confuse it with chicken fried steak!

Denny's has Chicken fried steak and chicken fried chicken. It's really good!

"It's all good" That one drives me crazy!!!

Another one at the top of my list is using the word "seen" instead of "saw". For instance, "I seen you driving yesterday."

Correct it now please! I say like after everything and don't even realize that I'm saying it!!! My father is constantly yelling at me.

My 13 yo daughter uses "like" after every other word! It's maddening. DH is from Pittsburgh where they essentially have their own language, lol. He says "What are yunz doing?" (What are you guys doing?) Red up the house. (Clean up the house). Why are you being nebby nosed? (Why are you being so nosy?" LOL!

A lady I work with, when she gets a little "hot" as in angry, and is trying to make a point, constantly says, "Well, between you and I...". Drives me nuts.

Hmm. I've nver been there!

Another DSism is "got on." When he was in 1st grade, he came home from school upset. When I asked what was wrong, he started to tell me, "The teacher tried to get on me . . " I had a quick moment of horror imagining some type of assault! I had never heard this phrase before.
The story went on that the teacher "tried to get on him" for failing to turn his work in, but he had turned it in the previous day! LOL! I will never forget that!

DH will tell the kids to put their things "up" instead of away. I always tease him that I don't want a bunch of toys or clothes on the roof!

My dh will be talking about a child and say 15 month year old. Okay, 15 month old or 1 year old or 15 year old, WHICH IS IT???

And my all time most hated slang word is conversate. I swear this word was invented on the Jerry Springer show and it sounds so ignorant. You can converse or you can have a conversation...you can not conversate!

But BeachRatz we wuz jus' conversatin' yeserday!!!

The other one that makes me crazy is "Do you want me to come with?"

At what point was the "you" dropped from that statement???

My DH is from "da 'burgh" as he calls it, so I hear "Nebby" a lot (usually he's talking about my mother ), "Yunz guys goen downton to Primanti's n'at" and he talks about "Jaggerbushes" which in my neck of the woods are known as burrs, those pesky sharp things that stick to your clothes when you are out walking in the woods. It was like learning a whole new language when I first met him! LOL

Ill.... to me that word means being sick.. not here in the south "Ill" means being mad/frustrated.

WHATEVER! That word is so annoying to me.
