No intention of trying to prove it but I'm pretty sure I was trendsetting in my own dislike of "so".BR wrote:So ... You know what's annoying?big mervyn wrote:This growing trend of starting every response with "So, …".
People getting annoyed with things 18 months after everyone else.

NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

It's a form of cultural appropriation. Only bog trotters like Shan should be allowed to pepper their speech with so.
Volunteer at an animal sanctuary; it will fill you with joy , despair, but most of all love, unconditional love of the animals.

Re: What annoys people????
I can't stand the replacement of all verbs of speech with 'was like...'
'I said, 'Go away'' becomes 'I was like, 'Go away''
'She responded, 'No I won't'' becomes 'She was like, 'No I won't''
'I said, 'Go away'' becomes 'I was like, 'Go away''
'She responded, 'No I won't'' becomes 'She was like, 'No I won't''

Waiters hovering about topping up your wine glass especially when they do it without asking first.
