Sportsmen who respond to a question with "Look" at the beginning of their answer. Used to be an Aussie thing but I've heard Cook and KP use it now.

 

I've got a friend who starts too many sentences with the word "listen". What a stupid thing to say.

I know if I say it annoys me though he'll do it more.

"Can I get a............."

 

that one winds me up to fuck.

 

 

also, people who have two points to make and start off with `point A` but they either never get to `point B` or they say `secondly` or `also` instead.

its probably my grumpy old age but i find myself screaming at the radio `wheres fucking point B!`

Pacifically

 

I had a boss said that all the time without realising it. Another favourite was "don't hold my head to a gun"

a boss at a place i used to work at sent a memo out and he used the words "human cry" instead of "hue and cry" having said that he was from stoneclough so maybe that explains it?

I bet it was a labour of love to resend that memo.

"Do you get what i'm saying?"

 

"Just so we are on the same page"

 

More recently, people who say "You're joking", after being told that their work mate had just been killed, or similar. Yep, sorry, I am. How callous of me.

Agreed, but not out of the question in a cricketing context.

 

Anyway the one that pisses me right off is - 'you do the math.'

 

Or "go figure"
