When someone does that to you, turn the tables on them."narmeen" after every sentence
Say "Actually no. I don't know what you mean."

No, you cretin, you need another word in there, e.g. "That was a good / high / low / poor quality pass..."

People who say 'At the end of the day' during a discussion, as if somehow their ill-thought-out, mistimed, irrelevent and badly delivered 'point' is somehow the final word.Originally posted by Diestl View PostPeople who say "Going Forward" in almost any sentence. "Going forward I think we need to fix the toilet pan". In fact any managment speak is annoying.
Grrrr Grrrr Grrrr
