Stuff that grinds your gears

[bingaling]

American Management speak on emails
“Touch base”, “reach out”, “run it up the flagpole”
“circle back”, “burning platform”, “going forward”,
“Stay safe” etc.

Fuck the fucking fuck off like.

Going forward is cringeworthy!!! I was declined a job recently with some daft line like "we're not going to work with you going forward"!! That was close!!

Very good looking people in perfume and cologne ads which are completely unrealistic. Paddy of 20 stone weight and a burnt rasher head on him won't look like that after a few dabs of 100 euro smells.

Biting the side of your mouth and hearing a crunch whilst eating. Fking annoying and I can taste blood now.

I was in a conversation with a solicitor recently and he repeatedly used that expression.

I didnt know what the fuck he meant..

Putting defined endpoints on an shape with none.

Complete rubbish.

“Double click” and “double down” are two irksome ones for me.

A close second is “moving the needle” and “threading the needle”.
