I think some people use /// or ... to passive aggressively imply that they just posted some nasty reply and then deleted it but still want you to know that they said something nasty. I'd rather they bring the delete button back. Otherwise, think twice, post once.

That's myself story and I'm stickin' to it!:rant-rave::rant-rave::rant-rave:

I don't think "hood" is a bad term.
It's more descriptive and it's colloquial use defines an exact area.
It tells you more than simply using the word neighborhood which doesn't tell you very much.
A "neighborhood" could be anywhere.

That lady with the age bias.

Sometimes it just fits.

Good morning, Loudall!

From my portfolio manager, "We are in this for the long haul". Translation, you just lost a bundle.

"That's One"
You know when you not quite done addressing the ball and as you're settling in, ready to hit it, for one reason or another the ball falls off the tee? That's when sometimes, a newby says "That's One".

Oh yea, I don't like newbie either.

Loudoll 02-21-2015 11:19 AM

"Getting your panties in a twist"
"Put on your big girl panties"

I hate these so much it almost makes me sick to share them.

Ew... lol
Has anyone, besides disgruntled food service workers, ever actually peed in anyone's chili or cheerios, etc ? lol
:ohdear:

Like new, hardly used.

Loudoll 02-21-2015 11:33 AM

While we're at it, I think the word RUDE is overused.
She was rude to rear end our car.
That was rude to show up in the same outfit.
They rudely expected to swim during water aerobics.
It was rude not to send flowers.
Rude not to bathe.
Rude to do this and that...etc.

previously owned

What happened to the word resale?

sunnyatlast 02-21-2015 11:46 AM

Here's one that's on the list and is grossly overused:

"Amazing".

Example: "I have the most amazing husband…..he just put down the remote and got up to get his own beer!!!!"

Like he's some kind of wizard…..

:ohdear: :ohdear:

I don't like "my bad."

onslowe 02-21-2015 03:25 PM

Someone should take a deep breath and reconsider their words. I'm relatively new here but have been reading TOTV for several years.

I feel strongly that an apology is in order for calling one of the most prolific and kind posters here a 'troll.' Get angry, but do not throw that word around carelessly or maliciously.

Thank you.
