Okay, Barrie hates the over-use of the word 'awesome', so what are your pet word or phrase hates?
A few of mine are:
'Lunker' and 'Lump'
Every big fish caught just lately is either a lunker or a lump.
Absolutely
Why do people use this four syllable word all the time when a simple one syllable word, like 'yes', will do?
'Up for grabs'
Why does every competition you see have prizes that are 'up for grabs'? Take a look through any of the weeklies or monthlies and you'll find it somewhere.
'A Shedful'
'Getting your string pulled'
'A big kipper'
I've got more, but go on, let's have yours.
