Do you have any sayings that you know you overuse and have to make a concious effort to stop? I get really annoyed at how often I say "For what it's worth" at EoFF. =|

I use "______ are/is the worst" pretty frequently. However, I am not going to try to consciously make an effort to stop because most things are, actually, the worst.
Because of your use of this, I have also developed a liking for saying "Urgh you are the worst!"/"Urgh this is the worst!"Quote:

That is the most glorious thing ever. Be sure to overuse it when you move to Australia so he can constantly be reminded of me.
He also told me of the "Why are you the way you are?!"Quote:

Whenever she says it though I say back (also in your accent) "Why are you the way you are!?!" She hasn't heard you say that as much so she doesn't get it, BUT I KNOW!
I say 'like' way to much, I feel so stupid if I re-read something I've said that has too many 'like's, but I can't stop.
Does typing in green count?
Sure. Surely that's easy enough to stop, though... ;)
it's a habit. I really don't think about it anymore. When I posted in the old Site Staff forum, I had to undo the green text. :shobon:Quote:

I can't think of any off the top of my head. I guess that might be one. But I do curse way too smurfin much.
I use the word "awesome" far too much, both in every day use and on EOFF. But there are a lot of things that are just so... awesome.
I tend to use the phrase "s**t the bed!" Whenever something shocking happens. Though I have no idea where this came from.
I had a thing with saying "for sure" when I agreed with someone which I think I picked up off Rafa Benitez. When it was pointed out to me I dropped the habit.
Now I like to say "fair enough" which I need to stop.
After living in Ireland for 5 years it's rubbed off on me and I have a habit of starting and ending sentences with "So" or "Like" and even occassionally get a "ye" in there too. It's even worse verbally like.
Still makes me laugh at Dunnes when the cashier will be like "that'll be thurtee euro so" and sometimes in my mind I'm still like "so... what?"
Also another interesting tidbit - in Ireland Chavs (or Knackers as they're referred too) are actually quite sympathetic when they try and mug you. Rather than starting the confrontation with "Oi!" as they do in London they go "Sorreeeeeee" (sorry) and then proceed to give you grief.
So now I'm also derailing the thread... gas like.
not really anymore. I go through phases of saying phrases.
I say that I don't give a trout a lot.
But guys... I give so many trouts.
tl;dr
"Also, let's smoke a fag." :stare:
Pisses me off.
I'm trying to cut down on my use of "Do you need a safe word?".
*AHEM*
"Go smurf yourself"
"There are no words" and "mind-boggling/numbing," though I have not made a conscious effort to stop using them. Boggling is a fun word.
I haven't gone boggling in a long time.
Get out of my head :stare:Quote:

I use the phrase "You ain't wrong" waaaaay too often. Annoyingly often. Like I annoy myself with it.
I want to boggle right now.Quote:
