Needs to be read in a Geordie accent for best effect.

And then he turned round and said......so I turned round and said.

Must be really dizzy.

literacy is in inverse proportion to the number of 'sortalike's in a sentence

"Basically"
"Basicslly"
"Bscly"

On a par with beginning a sentence with "So....."  Prevalent on this forum, makes me cringe.

Here we go again...

People who say ‘can I get’ in shops/food drink outlets.

these ones... - how can you have a plural singularity??

“Can I help you AT ALL?”

SimonC

Would of, Should of, Could of

Phil_aka_Pip

"Would that be good for yourself?"
"I wanted to discuss with yourself"

... more misuse of language by "recruitment consultants".

And don't get me started on why they can't call a job a job, it has to be a "role".

Valley girl, she’s a valley girl.

you know.... No, I don't, I absolutely fucking don't and, if I do, why the fuck are you telling me.

I remember one time I was listening to this podcast which I normally enjoy, they had a guest on who did that, Like, Like, Like.

After about 2 minutes of it I turned it off, I could not stand it.

Same with "you know what I mean", "Like, you know"

God yes, that drives me friggin bonkers.
Completely unnecessary.
So, I heard someone on the radio use it for every sentence.
So, she was a lawyer and should've known better.
So, it detracted from what she was saying.

Can I get really gets to me, most prevalent in coffee shops.

So, Peter Gabriel, what do you think?

How detailed can we go? 

Someone said "this" instead of "a". 
"Awesome". No it's not "awesome", it's good, or delicious or kind or maybe even beautiful. Something that is awesome inspires awe, like the Milky Way or the Grand Canyon (And I don't mean the EHX pedal)
"How are you?", "I'm good"....I'm sure you are good, but HOW are you?
"Infamous"....the misappropriation of this word is awful. 
"Literally", mostly used instead of figuratively. 

The list goes on.....

Yes - beginning a sentence with So, is akin to being talked down to. Is treating me  like I am stoopid or summink and they are just about holding onto their rag in having to explain it to me, like...
