I hate the way kids are taught to use stupid jargon phrases of speech here. I particularly dislike the way my then 6 year old had would say I have to learn to be more "self responsible" and that in my 9 year olds class they don't discuss their work, they "conference" it!!
I also don't like "sedgeway" never heard it before I came here.

I have a personal hatred of the largely American custom of over-using someone's first name - such as when someone uses your name in every sentence while talking to you. I always liked the old Scandanavian belief that names are a kind of personal magic toekn, and over-use of the name wears out the magic.

The most annoying and overused word for me is AWESOME ![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Oh and people how say "hello?" (inferring that someone else is stoopid) with that stoopid expression on their own faces

A segue is a musical expression and it means moving from one piece of music to another....mine of useless info!
My least favourite expression is "like"- like you know, those phases like the kids like thesedays like use a lot like...

I went to the shops so I did. Then I bought some sweets so I did.
Luckily I had it beaten out of me in primary school so I did.
