Most annoying/overused/stupid words and abbreviations that you are sick of.
I mean no offense to anyone, but I am totally sick and tired of the use of "ish."
Since Carolinabredchicagoan asked me to clarify,yes suffixes and prefixes are included.
A phrase is also acceptable.
Example of a new stupid phrase-"Man up."

"ish" as it's own word? Or as a suffix? ... as in "Noonish". |

As a suffix that is now applied to just about every word. |

Yeah. That is annoying.
I can't think of perfect fits for this thread, but I do want to take the word "nosh" and throw it off of a cliff.

Well people can use a word in question in an example as a sentence, if it is unclear. |

it means true, or that you agree
Once when my son was bombarded with homework I said ''oh, NO and you still have that 500 page English paper to write", he said "word''-and I thought he meant true/right, but he meant word. A five-hundred word English paper!
