All the current trendy office speak bull$h1t such as 'thinking outside the box', 'blue sky thinking' and 'taking things on board' really wind me up but the people who start to answer a question with 'yes no absolutely' should be rounded up and drowned in a vat of skinny farking latte. Hardly current, those stupid phrases were being used 20 years ago ,when I was in business. In seminars we'd construct a bingo card with all the phrase on them, and tick the appropriate box whenever on was uttered by a speaker. The winner had to promise to shout ' House' when his card was filled.  Agree with the ' yes no absolutely ' . But this is being picked up in parody by the BBC in comedy programmes like W1A. Bit like the ' Super ' and ' Great ' from the excellent Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin days. |

Hate any of that 5hite.........once worked with someone who told me they "had taken a helecopter view" I told them I would hire one and chuck them out of it if they ever spoke that 5hit to me again! |

I apologise "unreservedly". Usually confined to MP's or highly placed Council officials caught fiddling their expenses. By and large seems to get them off the hook. Shame I didn't think of it recently when stopped for speeding. Might have avoided the £100 and 3 points otherwise (could also have avoided it of course by keeping to the speed limit).
As mentioned by others, "absolutely" is appalling. "Yes" should suffice. It's the unnecessary emphasis that's so annoying. AB-so-LUTELY". "So" at the start of a sentence merits nothing less than an appointment with Albert Pierrepoint, were such a thing possible. |
