Count me in as also being a Southerner who hates "Y'all". In that same vein, there's a ton of "Southern-isms" I hate. Those being...
"Southern by the grace of God."
"Howdy!"
"If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise."
"Git 'Er Done!" (This one is the absolute worst)
Also, I loathe when an adult uses the words "yummy", "delish", or "tummy".

The one that always pisses me off is "Welcome to life" because usually someone says it when you're pissed off about something in a joking manner.
SOMETIMES IT'S NOT A JOKING MANNER!!!

Aw, I love y'all. It is absolutely messed up that we don't have a proper second person plural, and y'all is the only way you can get one using just one syllable. Unless you're in Philly and you say "youse", which is just odd. I hate "in a pig's eye" and "pearls before swine"... anything insulting pigs, basically... because pigs are so smart. |

If someone asks me if I want to "come with", I stare at them blankly. When they ask what's up I ask them why they didn't finish their sentence. They did. "Come with" is a phrasal verb.. When asked if you want to come with, do you honestly not understand in context? Not all language must be spoken. Japanese, for instance, is very contextual in daily communication. Sure, there's a by-the-book way to speak it, but most speakers forego much of it and there is no confusion because they understand the general grammar of their language and thus can predict what would be said. "Come with," while grammatically correct to end a sentence (that propositions cannot end a sentence is a myth), is contextual. If I ask "you want to come with?" I'm talking about coming with me because I already established that I am going somewhere and I want to know if you want to come with me. If another friend is going too and we ask you "You coming with?" We're talking about ourselves. Context and efficient communication. In summary, cut it out. Please. |

"Haters" and "hating" just because you don't like something or someone doesn't mean your jealous and hating on someone, just a differ of opinion.

It's not old, but I HATE HATE HATE when people say "I know, right?"
However, there is no phrase I've EVER hated any more than "yeah, no."

Anybody who uses the expression "meh" is a drooling simpleton. I must disagree on that. I can't think of a word or onomatopoeia that better describe the feeling of "not giving a damn". It's almost a word but you're so disinterested you can't be bothered to finish it. |

"Haters" and "hating" just because you don't like something or someone doesn't mean your jealous and hating on someone, just a differ of opinion. Yep. "Haters gonna hate" has become the new "sticks and stones" that people repeat when they can't find a good enough comeback to something or their argument is dead. |

I cannot fathom how much that phrase has irritated me. Also, bees/beads when referencing Arrested Development. Just so annoying. |

"Howdy!" especially when it's mispronounced
"If the good Lord's willin' and the creeks don't rise."
"A month of Sundays"A favored phrase of Southern moms that love to dramtic and condescending.
"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" This saying to the precursor to hater gone hate. The kiss ass or kick rocks mentality in both of these sayings disturbs me.
"Grown and sexy" oxi(freaking)moron

A month of Sundays just means something hasn't happened in a long time. "I haven't seen you in a month of Sundays." Don't get how it's condescending or dramatic.
The biggest annoyance to me is when someone says they "could care less" when trying to state how little they care. That has always gotten under my skin. It's "couldn't care less", people!

Just saw this quote on Facebook: "How you do anything is how you do everything"
It just seems like whoever saying it is so far up their own ass with thinking how deep they are.

I absolutely DETEST the word "prego" being used as a slang term for pregnant. When I think of "prego," I think of spaghetti sauce, not pregnancy. Well, their slogan used to be "It's in there"  What I hate about these phrases is the fact that people blindly use them because they heard someone else use them. "What can I do ya for" is one of those stupid ones, that and when someone says something like "So I said to myself, self what would you do?" Makes me want to throw tomatoes at them for their lame attempt at humor that isn't even original. |
