YES this is a really annoying one. Why not just say “now”?
“Going forward”… why not just say “from now on”, like we all used to say before folk started talking like morons
My beef is with people typing this shit. Speaking is different. Although if you actually said “I mean” at the start of every sentence I’d have to end the conversation politely and walk away.
‘Skit’ is literally the right name. ‘Sketch’ came way later, when TV came around, I’m sure. ‘Skit’ is hundreds of years old.
Brian Limmond’s fake accent is so annoying… Likewise shoehorning in “fuck” as often as possible. I guess that’s what he thinks people outside Glasgow think Glaswegians sound like. Same as Frankie Boyle.
Meanwhile Kevin Bridges sold out 17 nights at the SSE Hydro arena, because he’s actually funny.
My managers have been trying to find a new supplier for our web services, almost every day I hear “Let’s get them in for a beauty parade.” along with allll these other cliches, “That’s a quick win.” being another.
My manager is one of these people that serves very little purpose and just has meetings for the sake of it whenever possible. I also have to undertake a few training courses a year which is cheaper if you attend with a colleague so I let her decide the courses, we did: “Being brilliant” and “How to deal with difficult people” I learnt absolutely nothing, but have a certificate saying I’m officially brilliant.
