actually huge pet peeve when people write out erm at all. also poor public speaking really bothers me. slow, with "um"s and "so like"s, monotone. really, really makes a work meeting drag by

Never mind I found it
...took the effort to nvm-d the post, but did not share how, where, or what etc
Calling someone a bot or a shill because they post something you disagree with. It's so stupid. Like even if the person is a bot, would that matter if the point they're making is salient and sourced?
"I don't need to engage with the fact Biden has deported more people than Trump, because you are actually russian. Thus I have no reason to investigate my worldview."????
It's also such a tell. Like the person can't imagine anyone thinking anything other than what they think, so they must not be real people with internal lives. Can't imagine independent thought, literal NPC behaviour.
Especially because it's always the most average of redditor-take-havers that say it.
Starting every sentence with "So". "So" being the way to indicate the beginning of a sentence.
Game Changer, a stupid phrase that is so overused it has become meaningless
Pronouncing realtor like "real-uhh-torrrrr"
Kiddos, especially when used by people in professions that work with kids. Right up there with people who unironically say pupper or doggo. Just say kids.
Queer. Not all gay men (the one group I can safely speak about) like to be associated with an ex-slur and its connotations.
"Hence why"
Syntactically makes no sense. Just say "that's why," that's what you are trying to say.
Okay my bad, I do like all of these lol
βNot meβ doing something.
Just say youβre doing something, and accept that it may be a bit hypocritical or shameful that youβre doing it.
