"absolutely" in every sentence when they are selling something.
Can she wear those jeans with that t-shirt? "Absolutely... absolutely!"
Are you sure? "Absolutely!"
It is rampant, the use of this word in the US media! Please stop now absolutely!
OMG a woman being interviewed on TV has said "absolutely" in response to the last three questions where a simple "yes" would have been sufficient.
Suggestion: if you must use this word for emphasis, do so sparingly. When you use it every minute or two it becomes meaningless... absolutely!
"OMG a woman being interviewed on TV has said "absolutely" in response to the last three questions where a simple "yes" would have been sufficient."
You, who uses OMG, is watching a TV show where they are talking about wearing a t-shirt with jeans, and you are bitching about the way someone replies to a question?
You need to turn off the TV, put down the bonbons, and get out of the house.
You have this desire to bitch about everything. Getting out and getting a life will help this desire to wane.
At the absolute least, stop watching those gossipy, what not to wear shows and switch it to something like the Discovery Channel.
Actually, he makes a good point. Why say a four syllable word when one will do? Reminds me of people who say "utilize" when use is just fine. Hey, isn't this forum a place to sound off? Looking at the stats looks like Schwhatever needs to get off his ass - that's a lot of posting!
They should have used the word "Fantabulous!" The word "absolutely" is so old skool, last year! OMG!
We can do without 'awesome' as well, it devalues the real meaning of the word.
For sure, I'm absolutely on the same page with deep-sixing these hackneyed cliches. OMG it's awesome that it's finally being seen to, srsly. I mean, rilly.
Another phrase that I would like some people to stop saying is "Do you know what I mean? "Do you understand?" Yes, in that condescending tone!

Bro, I take it you are an ass by your handle. A lot of negative assumptions you seem to make. The TV was on low volume and only on because of the news program which preceeded some show - I was eating and on the computer. If fruit is bonbons then so be it! Change only occurs when it starts at the grass roots level - do you understand what I am suggesting here? "So go back to your cars, your bars, your massage parlors... I get my kicks above the waistline sunshine!"
Dave: Come in.
Bruce: I came as soon as I ascertained you needed to see me, sir.
Dave: Sit down, Williams.
Bruce: [sits] What is it, sir?
Dave: There have been some complaints about your use of language on the docks.
Bruce: If this is about yesterday, sir, yes I did use a few blue words, a few cuss words, but as soon as I ascertained that the mix up had been corrected --
Dave: Noo, Williams, it's not your swearing that I'm getting complaints about; it's the fact that use the word "ascertain" too much.
Bruce: Really?
Dave: Yes, apparently you use it an average of two to three- hundred times, daily.
Bruce: Well, I do, but so...other...few words...fit.
Dave: Well, it's driving the men crazy.
Bruce: Who's complaining, sir? Is it Sanchez?
Dave: Noo, it's not Sanchez. It's--it's the older men, the ones nearing retirement.
Bruce: Sir, I ascertain that these men are just jealous of my command of the...English...uh language.
Dave: Well, perhaps. But, I suggest just to keep things running smoothly down at the docks that you humor me by limiting yourself to these four work-related phrases: [reads them off a paper] Good morning fellas; Hand me that thing; Boy, this work's hard; Guys, break's over.
Bruce: Sir, I ascertain--
Dave: Ah.
Bruce: -- that it's their problem. They're just jealous of me. It's my right to ascertain things. You should talk to them about their being upset about my...ascertaination.
Dave: Look, I was young once; and, whatever you do in the privacy of your home, with your good lady wife, well that's your business. But, when it starts to slow work down on the docks, then it becomes my business.
Bruce: I ascertain--
Dave: If you don't back off that word, you'll be looking for a new job -- comprendez-vous?
Bruce: I...asc--
Dave: Unh-uh.
Bruce: ah--
Dave: Mmm-mm.
Bruce: ah--
Dave: Nn-nn.
Bruce: Asc--
Dave: N-nuh-no.
Bruce: Asc -- asc--
Dave: Nooo-no-no-no.
Bruce: I asc--
Dave: Mm-mm-mm-mm.
Bruce: Cer--
Dave: No.
Bruce: tuh--
Dave: Uh-uh. Good morning fellas; hand me that thing; boy, this work's hard; guys, break's over.
Bruce: I asc--
[Dave shoves the paper in his face. Bruce grabs it with disgust.]
Bruce: [pouting] Boy, this work's hard.
Dave: There ya go! Good boy! Now, get the hell out of my office.
[Bruce gets up to go.]
Dave: Glad we had the chance to delineate our little problem.
[Twinkley music sounds out the word "delineate" dances around the screen.]
Bruce: [to himself, trying the word out] Duh-lynn-e-ate. Duh-lynn-e-ate. Sir, I promise I'll never use that...other word ever again. [to himself] Duh-lynn-e-ate.
[Dave eyes him skeptically, as Bruce continues trying the word.]
That's absolutely awesome tenkani....you know what I mean?(//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/4.gif)
I have ascertained your meaning, absolutely!

Sis, I take it you are mentally challenged by your handle.
A lot of excuses there sunshine.
"The volume was low."
"I was watching some other show."
"I was actually on the computer."
"It wasn't bonbons."
To sound just like you, you need to stop telling other people what to do.

I should have known better than to explain - you be the beatch! Now go outside and have another smoke!
People, especially white guys, need to stop pretending to be bad ass gangstas and using the word "beatch".

I think that is actually BIATCH schady! And...I ABSOLUTELY agree with you on that one!
LMAO!
stretchmarks spelled it beatch. More proof he needs more education.

Wow, that's only a little bit misogynistic isn't it now. Guess what? Even Schadphucks mama got stretchmarks for giving birth to its dumb ass! Miss Pitt, what a suck you are for a bully who spares no scruples. You shouldn't praise an ass like that.

So Little Miss Beatch, how do you figure I am a "little bit misogynistic" by my reply?
Oh wait....you are a woman.
That would explain a lot.
I do not hate women, just you beatch.
It's easy to figure how Miss Pit weighed in, in support of Schad. He hasn't insulted everyone on this board. No offence stretch, but you haven't exactly endeared yourself to anyone here. Not that you're not welcome of course.....just explaining.
