whatnot. Hearing that phrase appended to the end of sentence makes me want to punch myself in the face. Repeatedly.
This is one is less of global annoyance.....but specific to my job and I go completely batshit when I hear it.
Bumwad.
Architects and engineers use tracing paper all the time when sketching floor plans up......and for some inane reason, they call it 'bumwad'. So dicksmacks (women too) are running around my office asking for bumwad all the time.....and think nothing of it.
Had I not DSF to keep me sane.....I'd probably jump up and give them the yummy analcreampies that they are so begging for.
I feel like Sam Jackson in Pulp Fiction....I mean...I'm trying real hard not to assrape people and this curious word usage is making it mighty tough on a man.
the iPod pirate... Argggh! .. WAIT, don't get me wet!

I don't know what ya'll is but y'allis a word. It's an informal contraction of "you all" and it's not slang at all. It is, though, a colloquialism. It probably sounds weird to someone who didn't grow up with it, just like it sounds weird to me when people call soft drinks "pop." It's a regional thing. Britney Fuckin Spears did not make up the word and decide to start using it in interviews. Her parents and grandparents are guaranteed to have used y'all their entire lives. Now, I can't speak for Texans but y'all has been in use in Louisiana for generations and is not a trendy word at all. That kinda disqualifies it from being slang, doesn't it?
Myself, I hate the use of "stupid" as a qualifier for something. I was told a girl was "stupid hot" and I had no clue what that meant.
