Please stop it!

All these saying they have on silly pop shows that have now found their way into football speak

such as

We smashed that
we killed it
He made it his own

 

[MSG_07]

I have to say I hate these sayings as well. All apart of young-un culture along with the jobbie stoppers it seems.

So () this is natural language evolution. Your generation (however old you are) did exactly the same.

'groovy' out, 'wicked' in etc

And the now younger gens will be girnin tge same when they get on a bit.

It's not just natural, it is necessary as language is only as alive and growing as its speakers.

End of i m jolly girn

'Like' speech is now spattered with it. Also the Australian led, inflection. Where all sentences go up at the end like a question. One of my nephews speaks like that. Most annoying. Also 'awesome' no it's not, it's vaguely good.Also my season seat pal next to me Puskas Suttie's son was using 'douchebag' all the time until I pulled him up for it.

You boys must be miles behind because that one has been around as a mainstream word since about 2010

Embra folk (clearly not the posh ones) have been ending verbal communication with “eh” for years. Always struck me as strange.

The “eh” not the folk, although......

Bit of a fan eh?

Can use it at the start o the sentence too to emphasise a point eg

- "See that Jambo?"
- "Aye"
- "Eh he's a right c@#$ ?"

A young lass accidentally bumped into me ( my trolley) in the supermarket. She didn’t apologise , but said “ my bad” I assume that is the modern way.
It was random.

Funny how we do that, finish a sentence with a word or non-word.
Over the years I've used

ken, jim, man, eh, mate, yeh

surely it was "literally" my bad or better still "I literally died" That last one trumps everything
