What word or term annonys you? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Please don't think I'm here to complain about rizz or skibidi toilet etc. Thats all fine by me.

The term I dislike strongly is 'eeeh' before you make a statement disagreeing with someone. (This is over text only). Now maybe I've been pavloved bc it's always used by someone disagreeing. But I'm happy with people disagreeing with me normally its just the 'eeeh' or 'erm' that annoys me.

So what's a random term that annoys you?

PS. Saying "eeeh actually 'eeh' is a perfectly fine term" would be a ridiculously easy joke and I will judge you for making it. And I know atleast one person will. Especially bow that I've said all this.

So many things. In written form, I hate when someone writes "Period." after they make a point to mean "this can't be argued" or whatever. My good bitch, I don't think you understand how arguing works. 😆

"Full stop" is a close second.

It's a perfectly valid way to win an argument, end of sentence.

That's fine as long as you don't spell out the periods. 😆

By the by, I'd love to be the guy with the confidence to end an argument with "thus it is proven". That'd be epic. I think I've only ever used QED humorously or ironically.

If you don’t have the periods it could just be someone saying qed really loud

[–] sgibson5150@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago

Would that be pronounced KED or KWED I wonder? Or maybe just a large belch. 😆
