    “You can’t have your cake and eat it”

    It doesn’t really make sense when you really think about it.

    “I’m just saying”

    Yes I know you’re saying something. You said it.

    I get unreasonably annoyed at “Well yes and no.”

    It’s never yes and no. Just answer the question.

    Not really a phrase, but I also really hate this current trend of ending a sentence in a question mark to try and add that rising inflection that is already obnoxious enough in-person. I just don’t like it?

      That bittersweet moment when you finally find someone as bothered by question statements as you, but you can tell from their username that they won’t be around much longer.

    Like and Subscribe. I don’t like when YouTubers say that, especially at the beginning of a video.

      For me it’s “I will see you in the next video” especially when they give a day (“on Thursday”) assuming I what the video the minute it’s uploaded and not a year later. Also, you never saw me and most likely never will. That’s not how videos work. I see the content creator but they don’t see me. Get your facts right.

    “Slams” when it is actually “mildly disagrees”

    I find myself annoyed by “not gonna lie”/“ngl”,“just sayin’”, or really anything along those lines that gets tacked on without adding anything to the statement.

    “Speaks out”. Commonly used by news organizations to describe anyone saying anything.

    That “Just” always skips 20 steps.

    the phrase “rustles my jimmies” really, well, gets under my skin

    burns my biscuits

    ruffles my feathers

    grinds my gears

    bruises my tomato

    pisses in my lemonade

    rains on my parade

    gets my hackles up

    gets my garters in a twist
