Phrases that ought to get you a punch in the face - Page 2

post #51 of 282

When someone around me says a politician is "worse than Hitler" or a "Nazi". No dumb ass he's just a ____________ (insert mainstream political party). Himmler wasn't even Hitler for fuck sake and he was pretty bad from what I hear.

seconding the love (hate?) for positive bullshit phrases like, "everything happens for a reason" and "god has a plan for all of us". But it's stuff my mother says to cheer me up so I can't really hate it too much. It is irksome. 

post #55 of 282

THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT!

post #56 of 282

"Minorities"

 

Fuck YOU.

post #57 of 282

Seriously.

 

No. Seriously. I'm tired of "Seriously."

 

That and "Really?" Really? Yes. Really.

 

Everytime I hear either "Seriously" and "Really" on TV I want to punch the TV for this is the laziest dialogue ever.

post #58 of 282

Rednecks that declare "I don't subscribe to hyphenated Americanism."

 

post #59 of 282

Anyone over the age of 12 who says "D'oh!" in real life.  Fer fuck's sake...

post #60 of 282

"Isn't it a little early for _____?"

 

I get this at work all the time. Drinking coffee? I get commentary saying it's too early. My sinuses hurt and I need tylenol? Commentary. ETC ETC

post #61 of 282

"Unless you've been living under a rock..."

post #62 of 282
'My bad'. Good God do I hate that.
post #63 of 282

Oh God, "My bad" is just the worst. It makes people sound 5 years old while self-nullifying themselves of any responsibility of whatever the "bad" was.

post #64 of 282
Thread Starter 

 

Pretty much any line of Joss Whedon dialogue used in real life.

 

 

One for the Brits:

 

"Simples"

 

 

post #65 of 282

This utterance doesn't always deserve a slap or punch, but reading some comments on IMDB has reminded me of this golden oldie:


"You just don't get it."

 

I understand that there are times when you are talking to morons when this truly is the case, but if you tell me I just didn't understand Sucker Punch, I shall provide that film's title to your face.

post #66 of 282

"Sounds like somebody has a case of the Mondays."

 

Fuck you, asshole. You post-ironic jerkoff who latched onto one phrase from a legitimately great movie and has now run it into the ground.

I like that one and use it frequently. It's a good way to casually accept responsibility for an error. I usually couple it with "I'm sorry" or "that was my fault"

post #68 of 282

"Grow up."

This is usually said by a humorless asshole who is swimming in brat kids, a bad marriage, oodles of debt, and a shitty job. I'd rather joke around, thank you. Life is too short.

"I'll be seeing your mom in about 30 minutes." is the appropriate response.
 

Yes "your mom" jokes are still quality stuff. They've had a resurgence in 2 of my friend circles.

Kate's presence in this thread somehow reminds me of her.

"That's so gay!"

Thankfully I came from a fairly enlightened corner of the country, so whenever someone would say that in highschool, I and others would make a point to interject with "Yes, these tator tots ARE very homosexual, you're so right!" ETC. People who used gay as a pejorative quickly learned it made them seem, in the parlance of my state, 'wicked retarded'

post #72 of 282

Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of retarded. That word probably bothers me more than any others. However, I never really fault people or even get visibly upset with it's use. 

 

I'm of the mind that any profanity, slur, insult or vulgarity is completely fair if it's deployed right, for the right reasons (humor, let's say), and in the right company (I don't want to upset anyone). However retard is a word I never use personally and have always felt uncomfortable with. I think it just stems from having a mentally disabled family member and seeing that first hand. I never really qualm with its use because of my over-arching philosophy of fair use, but I'm very conscious of it. And if someone throws it around in an especially mean-spirited way, I think a solid punch to the mouth is certainly warranted. 

post #73 of 282

Dude, Blacky, that was kind of gay.

 

I kid, I kid. My mother refuses to watch Tropic Thunder because my cousin has autism. I absolutely understand her feelings and her stance, and I don't say it nearly as often anymore, but it's a word so ingrained in my lexicon (especially, coming from Mass, how it just rolls off the tongue in combination with another word) that it won't ever go away entirely.

post #74 of 282

A lot of you would absolutely hate to talk to me in real life.

Just FYI: I don't actually say 'wicked retarded', nor did anyone I went to school with. That's more a Boston thing, and I am thoroughly Western Mass

 

I've written at length on the board before about how I see nothing wrong with referring to people with mental retardation as being 'retarded' (it's just an accurate description), but generally if I'm trying to slag something off, I try and do it more creatively than to simply say that a given person place or thing is "retarded"
 

 

post #77 of 282

My family has a much similar stance with Tropic Thunder, but I love it, you know, fair use! It's funny. I guess my problem isn't so much with "retarded", like the princess' "wicked retarded" Boston-esque slang, I man there's no harm there whatsoever. I don't say it, but it doesn't bother me. I think my problem lies more with the word "retard". It's much harder-edged and somehow more of a cruel word. It just rubs me wrong. I guess it depends entirely on how it's used. When some guys are calling my disabled cousin a retard to his face, that's upsetting and invites punching. When my friend calls me a retard for shattering his lamp while blackout drunk, I got to suck it up and admit he's right, and go to Big Lots and buy him a new one. 

 

I don't mind the word mongoloid, in fact I find it sort of pleasant sounding. I don't know. Complicated feelings, I have.

Yes, that's simply vile and inexcusable

"Let's touch base" or any other corporate lingo

 

"Vajayjay"

 

Anyone over the age of five who refers to excrement as "poop"

 

"Preggers"

 

"My BFF"

I agree with all of these except for BFF. Sometimes you need to refer to your best friend, but don't want to use all those keystrokes. Unfortunately abbreviation BF has come to mean BOY FRIEND, and so the extra F is required for clarity

 

post #84 of 282

Poop is a quality word.

Surprised that one took so long.

 

Some sports related ones:

 

Talking about a specific player, but adding "a" before his name, as if there's more than one of him.  I call this the Kiper commodification.  Similarly, I can't stand when people who play fantasy football say they "own" someone.

 

Anyone who refers to his favorite team as us or we.

 

Anybody who says a nice shot in golf is a "Golf shot."

 

Anybody who yells "Get in the hole!" after a drive.

 

The NFL analyst version of corporate speak.  A few new phrases seem to get pushed every season.  Stuff like-  "a quarterback driven league", "he can really spin the ball", "dial up the blitz", "manage the game", "in space", "get to the edge", etc. 

 

"Must win games"  that aren't.  "They have to score here" when they don't. "Walk off" anything.  I could go on...

I haven't heard this used by civvies and outside press conferences and a few jodies I didn't hear it much when I was "boots on the ground" either.

 

Why does it bother you?

post #90 of 282

"Drinking the Kool Aid."

post #91 of 282

"Well, I'm a Christian"

 

Usually deployed to justify self righteous/small minded  behavior/thinking 

 

Just like the anti-Roman agitator known as "Jesus" would have wanted it.. rolleyes.gif

post #92 of 282

Gonna have to go with David Cross on this one: Misuse of the word LITERALLY

 

Also, folks who use, "Y'know what I'm sayin'." in place of a closing statement to a point left unmade.

post #93 of 282

Anyone who says someone is "preggers".

I don't know if it's a parent thing or anything, but I'm using "poop" when talking about our baby's...well, poop.

I hate that damn Meerkat.

 

 

"If you want my opinion"   -    If I did I would have asked for it.

 

Also "Can you do me a small favor"

"Hate him right back"

 

 

Not a punch-worthy phrase but still punch-worthy:

 

The use of curse/swear words from SciFi TV. Particularly BSG in recent years. If you want to say "fuck" say "fuck".

Don't forget when they say "well, he has all the intangibles"....which is code for "brains, but less talent".

 

And relationship wise: anytime a girl asks "why do you like me?"
