Remember the good old days when people just "died"? Pass away, meaning depart, has been used in the sense 'die' since about 1375; Lay Folks Mass Book (MS. B) 112: “God lord graunt .. rest and pese Þat lastis ay to christen soules passed away.”    Posted:   Jan 31, 2018 - 5:25 AM     By:   Jehannum   (Member) A banker we work with wrote that she would "diarise" a meeting. That's my latest example.    Posted:   Jan 31, 2018 - 5:26 AM     By:   Jehannum   (Member) People saying hashtag and then whatever they're talking about! Stop it...or get slapped. #iknowright    Posted:   Jan 31, 2018 - 5:30 AM     By:   Jehannum   (Member) Not really a phrase but I hate, "My boyfriend", when ever speaking to a lady. Your having a nice conversation with a women and they always slip that in. A lot of times late in the discussion too. What do you prefer? "Fuck-buddy"?    Posted:   Jan 31, 2018 - 5:37 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) And what about "passing away"? Remember the good old days when people just "died"? Pass away, meaning depart, has been used in the sense 'die' since about 1375; Lay Folks Mass Book (MS. B) 112: “God lord graunt .. rest and pese Þat lastis ay to christen soules passed away.” That's interesting. In good ol' 1375 "passed away" had a spiritual context, but I take its contemporary usage, at least in our glorious media, to be used to "soften" the cold, hard reality of death...er, having passed away. "He's passed away, Jim." ~Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy    Posted:   Jan 31, 2018 - 6:29 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) "Respect the pronoun."    Posted:   Jan 31, 2018 - 7:17 AM     By:   Jehannum   (Member) "He's passed away, Jim." "Passed away" is fine but just "passed" not so.    Posted:   Feb 1, 2018 - 12:43 AM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) "Help me get into..." Utter tosh. Mock helplessness.    Posted:   Feb 1, 2018 - 10:24 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) Yeah, back in the day...when theyr talking about 1998! The first time I--an uncool film score nerd--first heard that phrase was in this "hip hop" track circa early-mid 1990s. Younger (and no doubt hipper) FSMers may know of other, earlier references.    Posted:   Feb 1, 2018 - 11:20 AM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) "No, thank you." "Yes, please." Oh, wait--those *have* gone away. Jimbo, from earlier in the thread, i found a contender for your favourite posts!    Posted:   Feb 1, 2018 - 2:25 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) Not really a phrase but I hate, "My boyfriend", when ever speaking to a lady.

With me , they mention it right at the start!!!!!!! d'oh!!!!!!!!    Posted:   Feb 1, 2018 - 2:26 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) Tv news commentators no longer say "in the future". Now it is "moving forward" d'oh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn you! damn you all to hell! brm this one just keeps getting worse. The future of "future" is bleak    Posted:   Mar 7, 2018 - 4:32 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) "So you're saying..." followed by a willful misinterpretation of what was actually said. I'm talking about you, Cathy Newman.    Posted:   Mar 7, 2018 - 5:02 AM     By:   jenkwombat   (Member) "And the Oscar goes to..."    Posted:   Mar 7, 2018 - 5:27 AM     By:   jackfu   (Member) "All wee-wee'd up"    Posted:   Mar 7, 2018 - 5:36 AM     By:   Graham Watt   (Member) Aw c'mon you guys. You're targeting literally absolutely all the expressions in use in the English language, which makes some of us afraid of posting ANYTHING, because it's like SO hard to avoid them. Got that? It ain't rocket science. Just sayin'. Nuff said. Ordered, LOL! This thread needs to go away. It's making me nervous.    Posted:   Mar 7, 2018 - 5:41 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) Aw c'mon you guys.

Look, if I've said it once I've said it a million times, got that?    Posted:   Mar 7, 2018 - 5:45 AM     By:   Graham Watt   (Member) And another thing - I won't say another word on this subject.
