    Kate Garraway on GMB/Lorraine:

    'Oh my Gosh!'
    'Oh my giddy aunt!'
    'Oh my Golly!'

    I'm just waiting for her to slip up and say 'Oh my God!' live on tv! :)

    Also annoying:

    Where did you have it last? (well if I knew I would know where it is!)

    Like how they say like always like say like in like every single like sentence!

    Are you ok? (when you have just banged your funny bone and are clearly in pain!)

    And from MSE: 'I had a Royal Mail red card through my letter box today! Does anyone know what my missed parcel might be?

    Hmmm

    This is an "intervention" regarding your drinking/sex addiction/comping addiction.
    No your just being really nosy

    "Family meeting time" who actually does this, surely parents decide and kids just go along with it or moan constantly.

    "A change is as good as a rest" no its not it could easily mean more work for me because I have to implement the actual change.

    "Another day, another dollar" chrissake I live in the UK its a pound sterling aright.

    "Feed a cold, starve a fever" this is blatantly untrue. Many times I have forced food down my gullet thinking I would feel,better. I simply felt sick as well as full of cold.
    63 mortgage payments to go.

    Zero wins 2016 😥

    'At the end of the day'. What has that actually got to do with anything?

    'It's not the end of the world'. Obviously, but why does that mean I can't be annoyed/upset/whatever?
