          But does she know who the father is? The answer is "negative"!

    1, Long story short
    2, IDKY but it just suddenly happened
    3, What's up with that?
    4, What did I just read?
    5, Make me a sandwich
    6, GTFO
    7, I have a friend, let's call him Q
    8, IDGAF
    9, I hate...
    10, Retarded / gay

    1, It'd be shorter still if you didn't type "long story short".
    2, You *do* know why. Stop pretending some unknown force possessed you and is to blame for your actions.
    3, I don't understand questioning the essential component of upness in anything but aircraft and, even then, it's silly. What's "up" with that airborne craft? Well, the pilot, the passengers and some cabin crew.
    4, You know what you just read. You obviously didn't like it so why do you want me to recite it you?
    5, I'd make anyone a sandwich as long as they can come up with something original and humorous.
    6, Oh, just fuck off, you imbecile.
    7, Right, so it's your friend Quentin, then. Either that or you're James Bond.
    8, Don't expect anyone else to.
    9, Other emotions are available. You are probably feeling one of them and don't know the word for it. Learn more words and phrases. Then you can tell us that Peter's behaviour that day left you feeling a tremendous sense of ennui. If you say hate we don't know which of the other words you actually mean. If you mean hate, though, feel free to say it.
    10, Same as 9. Learn more words. Insults are fun. Don't limit your fun.

    Ending a comment with "Just sayin"
    Responding to a comment with "There you go"
    Ending an obvious statement with "Right?"

    My boss always says, "with that being said" and it drives me crazy.

    But I'll get annoyed if I try to think of others so I will end here.

    When people say "LOL" outside of the internet.

    "I could care less". It's couldn't care less, not could.

    "That's hilar" hilar short for hilarious.

    "Not being funny but..."

    All I can think of for now. I think there was a very similar story to this posted a while ago. I feel like I'm repeating myself :P

    I don't really have any sayings that bother me all too much. The only thing that does annoy me is when people get annoyed with someone for saying YOLO or something, like they're the people police or whatever.

    Let people say their dumb things until they don't think it's funny anymore.
