"I just threw up in my mouth a little"

It was really funny in that Dodgeball movie, but I think it's overused these days.

"I could care less"

Ummm... no. The expression is "I couldN'T care less" as if to say, "I care so little that it's impossible for me to care any less about this".

If you COULD care less then you must care SOME.



See this I never understood-now for the record I don't say either but "I could care less" is just a sarcastic version of "I couldn't care less isn't it?"



No, 99.99% of the time, it's people saying the phrase incorrectly.

Re: Spinoff #2 - What phrase do you hate?

"My bad" is probably on the top of my list.

I also hate when people say "To make a long story short". I always say to myself "it's too late for that"

Another is when people say "Six of one, half dozen of the other" as if it is all one line, without the comma. It's like they don't even understand what it means.

I just hate that phrase, whether it's used correctly or not. DH and his family say it ALL THE TIME. So I make fun of them by saying something like "six dozen of one, twelve of the other" or something else that makes no sense.

"To make a long story short" I agree with pharmcat2000, if you had to say it, it's too late already (my DH is famous for this one)

Re: Spinoff #2 - What phrase do you hate?

I dislike:

"Yeah, but whattaya gonna-do?"
"What can you do?"
"There's nothin' you can do."

So you're telling me that I don't have the right to be upset about anything that does not have a simple, concrete action that can remedy it. Life is more complex than that.

Know what I mean? (KIDDING!)

I HATE when people say "Again" and then repeat their sentence. I feel like saying Shut the F up, I heard you the 1st time.

"A whole nother."

I prefer "another" or "a whole other" but "NOTHER" sounds like nails on a blackboard to me.
