Also, people who say 'random' when another word would be more appropriate.



Oh god, that one drives me insane!


Another one which drives me mad is when people talk about 'doing' a place; e.g. 'let's go to Oxford Street and do Selfridges' (or indeed 'let's do Oxford Street'). You don't 'do' Selfridges, you go to Selfridges! You don't 'do' lunch, you have lunch!

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

People who can't say HOSPITAL and say HOSPICAL like Ashley in corrie


People who can't say kettle and say kekkle


MAD MAD MAD people!!!



This is a perculiarity of some parts of Manchester. You will notice that les Battersby does the same - and calls a bottle a bokkle.

Old but spicey!
