Sayings you hate

[renaeden]

I heard a DJ use the word "Chrismo" (for Xmas) on the radio this morning. In Sydney. At the opposite side of the country to Ren.

It's a thing now, apparently.

It's a tad different. Chrimbo, not Chrismo. But where are these horrible words coming from?

[Minister Of Silly Walks]

Maybe from people like me who hate "Chrissie" as an abbreviation for Christmas?

Though I'm gonna stick with saying the full word for now. But I won't rule out adopting an abbreviation at some point if I hear a good one (not Chrissie, Chrismo or Chrimbo).

  "Everything happens for a reason!" 


   Usually the reason is that somebody was an asshole.

Hey, watch it!  I resemble that remark.

Chrismo? Never heard of it. Prezzies I've heard in Canada before but never from me. That's annoying.

I hate the saying "thanks for sharing." I immediately roll my eyes and won't respond.

I hate the saying "thanks for sharing." I immediately roll my eyes and won't respond.

Have said that many times here, in response to people sharing art, music, and poetry, because sharing is what they're doing. It's a brave thing to do. Why does it make your eyes roll?

[Queen Victoria]

"Your hair is really awful today."

"Thank you for sharing that.  I'll think about it."

[Jack]

Is it generally used as sarcasm?

[Queen Victoria]

It's more of self-preservation on my part.  I don't kill my relatives that way.  I spend 1/2 second thinking about it and then tell myself "Nah"

[Jack]

Am just wondering if it's a bad choice of thing to say.

Is it generally used as sarcasm?

Yes, it's generally used as sarcasm.

A: "Would you like a donut?". B: "No thanks, they make me fart". A:"Errrr, thanks for sharing".

A: "How was your honeymoon in Hawaii?". B: "Awesome, although it's not like we ever left the room, heh heh". A: "Thanks for sharing".

It's generally in response to "oversharing", TMI type of thing.
