as the questions asks, what are yours?

Mine at the moment is

"Does that make sense"?

I hear it all the time at work and it really grinds my gears.

People who start sentences with ‘At the end of the day’.

A saying mostly used by people trying to prove points without having any other intelligent way of expressing it.

"To be fair" you're not being fair you're just disagreeing with yourself to keep this terribly boring conversation alive.

Yep hate it and I hear it at least once a year in a meeting and it's worse when management accompany it with a fucking diagram.

The reality is if you were to think outside the box in the work place you'd probably get a disciplinary or fired.

"Vaping" - it's a fairly recent one but fuck me if everyone isn't a vaper nowadays and love talking about their flavours and battery length and nicotine dosage. I'm sorry folks but the fact that there is nicotine in these things make them addictive, couple that will nice flavour and no longer stinking of tobacco and I would say they have potential to be more addictive than cigarettes. I thought you started to use vaporizers as a way to move away from cigs and eventually cut smoking out altogether, now vaping seems to be cool. Cigs used to be cool, then they started putting nasty images on packets to put people off them as they are actually pretty bad for you. Vaping is untested over any real time and could actually be harming you in a totally new way that hasn't been worked out yet.

Sorry, rant over

Having knuckled down and taken a holistic approach to the analysis of the feedback, bearing in mind the demograghic of the median responders, truth be told the dog may be wagging the tail on this idea. Let me stoke this on the thought fire and I'll catalogue it in my mindbank for some top-table analysis.

From political leaders i often think "on occasion" it's a genuine word slip up, such as the recent Amber Rudd incident. However what bothers me is when the rest of them like vultures stir up a media shitstorm and it's all you'll hear about for the next week.

That's what the media gets paid for .... so choose your words better in future and don't give the real rascists more to feed off.

Depends how you look at it. Media now it just here to entertain and to factually inform is not a priority. Rolling 24 hour news channels are the wrost offender's.

See I start my sentence like that with the Muslim we work with and it’s me genuinely asking a question about his faith etc, I probably word it wrong but he is a lovely guy and he understands that I don’t have much experience around other cultures and I am honestly hand on my heart interested in his beliefs etc, it’s not like I ask all the time but I have started a sentence that way but it’s purely out of my own ignorance about other cultures, I wouldn’t obviously say it to a random person I don’t know but with someone I’m comfy with that understands me, he doesn’t mind because I’m trying to broaden my knowledge.

Totally get where you are coming from, it’s never I march into a room and go ‘oi!

""Vaping" - it's a fairly recent one but fuck me if everyone isn't a vaper nowadays and love talking about their flavours and battery length and nicotine dosage. I'm sorry folks but the fact that there is nicotine in these things make them addictive, couple that will nice flavour and no longer stinking of tobacco and I would say they have potential to be more addictive than cigarettes. I thought you started to use vaporizers as a way to move away from cigs and eventually cut smoking out altogether, now vaping seems to be cool. Cigs used to be cool, then they started putting nasty images on packets to put people off them as they are actually pretty bad for you. Vaping is untested over any real time and could actually be harming you in a totally new way that hasn't been worked out yet.

Sorry, rant over "

Again, I see your point and no I wouldn’t and yes I have said it based on the colour of his skin, it is racist of me to say it the way I did but wasn’t meant with any malice towards him. I certainly wouldn’t do it now.
