Every time I hear someone say ‘eh’ in a questioning tone or to mean ‘um actually’ I lose my shit. Or even just to play something down.
Like I literally come to hate the person instantly. Its a very strong feeling on a very small sound.
Instant downvotes if I see it on Lemmy too. HATE IT.
How about all y’all?
“Bro” or any variation thereof that assumes familiarity where none exists.
The artifice offends.
Started getting offended by “bro” sometime in my early 40s. “Dude” is much the same. If we’re friends? I won’t even notice. But if the speaker is older, I feel talked down to. If they’re younger, it feels disrespectful.
Most of my friends are half my age, I’m fine with that address from them. Other people? “You don’t know me like that.”
