Words or Phrases You Hate
I can't stand the word "hubby" for husband, it makes me cringe. Similarly, I hate the word "panties" for knickers and "pantiehose" for tights - very American and very silly.
What words, if any, set your teeth on edge?

Re: Words or Phrases You Hate
To be perfectly Honest I don't like it when someone starts a reply with,
"To be perfectly honest", Does it mean that if they don't use this as a prefix to a sentence they are or would usually be lying?

Re: Words or Phrases You Hate
'Penny for 'em'.
I used to work with a stupid man who asked me that all the time. I just used to reply my thoughts were worth considerably more, as they involved cruelly torturing an imbecile..

Re: Words or Phrases You Hate
My pet hate is when people use the fraze "at the end of the day" often used by footballers with little brain
