OT: Expressions You Truly Hate

[RutgersMO]

Bottom line

At the end of the day

You got this

In it to win it

Step up

It's Too easy

It's a war out there

Unbelievable

These all qualify as TNT'ers: Tired and Trite!

I hope all announcers (Sports or News) use the full English language again sans these expressions+ any others you want to add.

[Beancounter88]

[m1ipabrams]

It is what it is....

 

[RUonBrain]

I hate when announcers (or really anyone) pluralize a player’s name as if there were more than 1 of each.

Example:
“The Derek Jeters and Mariano Riveras of the league/team.”

 

[Jimpeg]

blue bloods

 

[West Point Knight]

We are in this together
Using any percentage greater than 100% (barf)
You do you
The stupid usage of non-words “bruh” “prolly” and “tryna”
Truth be told
Out of an abundance of caution

 

[HeavenUniv.]

Somebody dropped the ball

 

[ClassOf02]

Ruckers

#sorrynotsorry
Aka ...
Sorry I'm not sorry.
Also, Everything happens for a reason. (Not true. If my cat gets hit by a truck what's the reason???!!!!!)
One I constantly say is "No worries" and "Oh okay"
It's really annoying and I need to stop...just sayin.. 🤷‍♀️

Dumpster fire

[colbert17]

Stupid sports expressions:

"high point the ball"
"move the chains"
"line to gain"
"run downhill"
"go vertical"

Or a West Virginia victory celebration.

 

[B0ski]

“one more win and we’re in”

 

[mikebal9]

Literally.

 

[Knight Ed]

My bad

 

[Scarlet4Shore]

With that being said...

 

[RocktheRac]

Colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra.

 

[dfr1966]

The use of "ask" as a noun

 

[RedTeam1994]

It is what it is....

my wife HATES when I say that ;)

to which I respond “oh well it is what it is”

that gets big laughs....from me. 😂

 

[Bleed_Scarlet]

Used to work for an Investment Bank full of tools that spoke in phrases like these

One day I went to a meeting determined to do nothing but speak in stupid phrases like these - “let’s take the ball and run with it” type stuff

A friend of mine knew what I was planning and would smirk every time I spoke.. it couldn’t have been more obvious


I was pulled aside by my boss after the meeting and complimented on my great participation in the meeting

 

[wheezer]

" I like you as a friend"

That shit ruins everything

 

[RutHut]

I gotta say, I use most of these expressions. For what it's worth, I must be annoying.

 

[tico brown]

I know I’m late on this expression but how the hell GOING FORWARD exploded a few years ago to the point that everyone on ESPN said that expression at least twice during every segment?

 

[m1ipabrams]

with all due respect,

followed by something completely dis-respectful

 

[Bobbynieds]

with all due respect,

followed by something completely dis-respectful

I use to start a conversation with an officer (when i was in the Navy) with the line
"No Respect intended"
They would always say, don't you mean disrespect? I would reply....sure


The one i hate the most
"UNPRECEDENTED!!

Everything is unprecedented. It drives me crazy.

 

[BigWill]

"We are Penn State."

 

[HeavenUniv.]

Not really expression, but I have noticed over the years that in husband/wife or boyfriend/girlfriend relationships, when you hear a person bashing the other , they generally hold the other person to higher standards than they do themselves.
