What words do you most overuse?

[wee quinnie]

"WHAATTT???" - in the context of "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Also, unsurprisingly, I have a terrible habit of attaching "wee" to every noun, regardless of stature.

[Keef]

"Grolsch top please" is a phrase I say far too much for the good of my health!

"In fairness" or "to be fair".

[cdonline]

Sorry. I'm always saying it, without really meaning it most of the time.

Laters.

wee wee. I try to say piss, but the words are too embedded.

[mockney piers]

"kind of" I hate myself when I hear me say it.

[Keef]

I went through a recent phase of saying

"Bigidibigidibigidibigidibigidi Bo!" quite a bit, but thankfully I seem to have grown out of it.

[jocelyn]

Yo is my bad - It's not even like I am from a rap community but I just cannot help myself.

[mockney piers]

I keep finding myself saying "what do you do when you want to do a poo" an awful lot for no reason at the moment, I wish I'd stop.

[Michael Palaeologus]

Essentially, its Essentially

[Brendan]

I?ve taken to calling people ?young man? or ?old boy? when I am drunk. I have been told off many times for this now and I really wish I would stop it.

[mockney piers]

I had a feeling it was your fault (6)

[Jah Lush]

I'm just a boy who can't say "no".

So, I say "yes" to most things when quite often I'd have rather said no. For instance, yes, let's got to the pub, yes, what are you having?, yes, I'd love another drink, yes, yes, I'd love another drink (repeat ad nauseum) yes, let's call it in, yes, let's stay up all night and get shitfaced, yes, let's go to bed (at last). Lastly, have you got work in the morning? "Yes, unfortunately."

Well you have met Jah, and I think that's his influence :)-D

[embellina]

Like.

I, like, put, it in front of, like, nearly every word I, like, say. Will I ever be able to stop? I'm sick of sounding like a Californian teenager. Arrrgh.

[Dulwich Born And Bred]

My mum said that lately I have been annoying her non stop because I keep saying:

" The thing is...."

Before that it was:

"I'm not being funny BUT...."

I have no idea where I got them from, I annoy myself when I say it!

[downsouth]

Actually, mine is actually. Oh yeah and "erm..."

It cracks me up when people say "right?" after each sentence. I took great pleasure in having a running counter on a friend of mine. It was was erm, actually quite funny.

[Brendan]

I like like to say like like quite a lot too like.

[wee quinnie]

Actually, another one that I do, mostly unintentionally:

When someone gives me a whole lot of verbal nonsense, I just look at them in an uncomprehending way, and emit, "Buh!" I look a bit like a sheep when this happens.

Keef - you are still my favourite forumite!!!

I say "at the end of the day" and " no offence" quite a bit......

Is that before or after you offend the person you're talking to?

[Jah Lush]

Bollocks! No I don't mean this thread. But, I do say bollocks quite a lot. As in "What a load of bollocks." Or "bollocks to that."

Also, on my last couple of visits to the Dog in Dulwich Village recently I've noticed that they've been selling a real ale called The Dog's Bollocks, so I've had to have a few pints of that and very nice it is too. In fact, I can tell you that it is the canine's testicles.

[Annasfield]

Before (normally)

[Keef]

But Anna, do you add a "like" to the end of "No offence" in true scouse style? ;-)

... No offence like.

I've started using "fella" quite a bit. "Alright fella how are ya?". I don't mind it really, but not sure it's really me.

[dulwichmum]

OHMYGOD!!!

[Annasfield]

Fella is great - it's definitely Scouse! :)-D
