Sayings or phrases that just really piss you off.

[Woody15]

Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

Its a go-to saying for unimaginative plonkers like Luke Darcy.

"I'm bullish on Josh Magoo..."

A word used by nuffs on Big Footy to give themselves an air of authority about players they're just guessing will make it in the AFL, when the reality is they have NFI. They think it makes them sound like a knowledgeable List Manager who is analysing the new recruits after the National Draft has been completed.

I don't mind this word in general usage to describe confidence (or the share market). I'm only referring to the nuffs on Big Footy talking about fringe players they watched for 15 minutes.

Bullish is close to bullshit in more ways than one.

in their new colours "hits different" apparently. At least that's what social media's telling me.

Let’s hope Brodie “hits different” in some ruck contests and finds some teammates

 

[Pistol Night]

Tennis players and their sooking at any noise makes me laugh.

Bonce, or unit, when said loudly in a sentence by James Brayshaw.

I just got the 2019 PF nightmare out of my head, cheers.

 

[dumb]

if you can't handle me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best

telling you straight up they have issues. so it's annoying, but useful too.

Verse/versing when used as a verb.

"Who are you versing this week?" "We versed them last week."

No, you played them. Versus is most closely translated to against. It's not vers-es.

"Who are you againsting this week?" "We againsted them last week."

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

"A myriad of" and "hence why".

The unbolded words are unnecessary.

"Based", indicates some sort of agreement with what has just been said. Seems to be American, i'll be triggered if it makes it here.

Weird Zoomer slang. Along the lines of "cap" (bullshit) and "drip" (outfit).

my kids say "cap" i don't understand that. they also call people "zesty", not sure what that is either

cap means lie
so if they say 'no cap' it means 'I'm telling the truth'
guessing zesty is like spicy??

Trauma... a whole generation of people starting to describe everyday inconveniences and annoyances as trauma.

 

[matt_897]

Tennis players and their sooking at any noise makes me laugh.

Is that a saying or phrase?

 

[Anzacday]

Trauma... a whole generation of people starting to describe everyday inconveniences and annoyances as trauma.

Goes hand in hand with them being stressed, (about everything).

Cometh the hour, cometh the man.

Its a go-to saying for unimaginative plonkers like Luke Darcy.

The earliest use I am aware of is Ablett's final quarter goal of the 2007 Prelim v Collingwood
Since then, over-used by others for ordinary moments.

The best commentary is spontaneous and original, always. Dennis was great. Sandy could also drop a good one.
"Like a cork in the ocean..."
"Centimetre perfect"

"Collingwood are firing like a belt-fed mortar"
"Ablett! Couldn't take the mark. Oh, he's alight, Gary Ablett! Look at this. Here is the magician at work. He shoots towards goal. What more can you say?"

Original, and quotable.

The issue is that commentators have tried to become personalities. When you're a Luke Darcy and you have no discernible personality, it becomes a twisted mess.
You can also be a Duh-Wayne, where you watch the NBA during the week, steal some lines and repeat them in your AFL coverage.

Kids now are butchering English.
I hate the use of, "lit". Everything is "lit".
If I was an English teacher, I'd be sending half the class back to kindergarten to start again.

Wot? Don't you want them to learn English lit?
