Horrible "Modern" Expression.......

[Canary42]

.... which has become quite common these days, being spouted by all sorts of (usually negligent or poorly-performing) folk:-

"Lessons will be learnt"

They never are of course, but it puts a positive spin on a bad event.

Any other horrible modern expressions you can think of ?

Meanwhile I'm off to watch MOTD (where no doubt it will be aired plentifully)

[Hopkirk]

'early doors'

[maggiebee]

End of

[Hazlinny]

"You know what I mean" ..... I flippin' well don't!

[Hopkirk]

'to be honest with you...'



(I should damn well hope so!)

[brainiac]

So.....

[jno]

I do look forward to seeing photos of the schoolroom where they're all busy learning lessons.

[JimF]

"It was totally surreal."
"It was very unique."
"At this moment in time."
"It was a big surprise for John and I."
"Myself and John were really surprised."

[Canary42]

I was disappointed - it only turned up once on MOTD.

[Barsel]

innit, yo, see you late or just laters, even when they won't.

[douglas9401]

...if I'm honest.
...potentially...
...inCREDibly...

Turning ordinary words into Tourettes tics.

[brainiac]

Nobody says 'me' anymore, always 'myself'

[Barsel]

I don't like saying 'I' in case people think I'm a Narcissist.
Yet, I started this sentence with it!

[Barsel]

brainiac, unless you come from the North where you would say meself.

[douglas9401]

I don't like saying 'aieeee' in case folk think I'm Ali G. x

[Iamtheoneandonly]

Reach out.
Spin the narrative.
*** off!

[bobbinwales]

Misuse of literally...like I was literally climbing he walls'

[Gromit]

This just in from No.10

// "We are focused on the outcomes, the most important thing is to make sure families get the answers they need and that it's possible to learn the lessons, that it's done transparently and that it happens as quickly as possible," the prime minister's official spokesman tells reporters.
"And that's crucial. And obviously, we will have an inquiry on the right footing to achieve that." //

[Unsureme]

Gromit,It will be "Spokesperson" nowadays,really gets my goat.
