That just wrong ,can you imagine telling someone what your job title is.
"What do you do"
"I'm a patient discharge co ordinator"

My company recently advertised a vacancy for a Vibrator Technician. Sadly it was of the siesmic kind not the marital one so no one was up for it.

I know - worse job title ever
I hate the cooks/chefs on the telly who say pan fried, fry it off and cook it down. So such silly and unnecessary terms - how the hell do you fry something off?
I hate the misuse of the word "tragically". When you get news stories about someone who was "tragically killed" or "tragically died" - are there people whose death is not tragic? At least to them and their loved ones?

I completely agree. Expounding on that, I also hate the word tragedy itself. I always worry when someone says that word that someone else is going to sing that utterly awful crime against music by The Bee Gees. It's okay if I'm at home and I can make a courageous lunge at the TV or radio to turn it off but I live in fear of being out in the open and it's blaring from equipment that I don't own and can't switch off. I'll be running like crazy diving into places with loud noises trying to drown it out.I feel unclean having even typed the word

I prefer the Steps version of Tragedy - they had a funky dance and everything

Ohhh I so agree Soozy - what the heck do they mean?It is the men who say it - I have never heard Delia or Nigella say such daft things.

I prefer the silent version. The one with no words, or music. Sadly nobody's done that one yet.

I am going to play the Step's version on New Years Eve and dance to it.
I also hate the word gusset and in the kiss and tell stories, they always wear *panties* who the hell uses that word *i'm going out pantie shopping today*
I understood that John cage's 4.33 was his version of tragedy. No wairds or notes.

John who? I don't trust him either way. He might have been lying. I live in fear of that song and trust nobody.
It was either him, or John Cale, or J.J Cale. I get 'em mixed up.

Considering the song in question are you sure John Inman wasn't involved?
I understand John Inman shifted the piano stool at the end of the song.
auction when it is pronounced "oc" tion, i dislike the way we have changed the pronounciation of certain words: boudicea is now "bud i ca" and uranus!
I hate the way Lord Sugar pronounces "resume" Rather than saying rez-o-may he says ri-zoom-may

THANK YOU Cariad - some one else who feels the same way as I do concerning that word.
Have you seen the Vagina Monologues perchance because that was what dis-empowered the word for me.

I have seen it - but I was ranting about the word before then.

People who say tissyoo instead of tishyoo. Shedyoo-ul instead of skedyoo-ul.
I used to work with someone who would say dessifer instead of dee-sii-fer in meetings (decipher). It right grated on my tats
Rollercoaster of emotions. Sod OFF

"God Bless" gets right on my erect nipples.
Patronisingly dispensed as if you need help
And I'm a believer

"Awwwww bless" is even worse Velvet
I'm not that keen on God Bless cos there's no evidential proof that God actually wants to bless that person, and I think it's highly presumptuous of the 'blesser' to bless the 'blessee' on the Guv's behalf.
I do say 'stay blessed' to people sometimes, but only if I think they've been blessed by something. (I wouldn't say it to someone with syphilis, for example).

Exactly where I'm coming from Bible thumpers...
My God's spiritual.
I hate the expression 'in the ball park' as it is so American and has no meanin in this country as we dont have ball parks - we have football grounds, stadium, sporting arena's etc - but no ball parks - why dont people just say approximately instead of this stupid expression

Well I'm glad about that
Actaually I do say Good Night, God Bless - to my grand sons ......................said it to my kids too. It was always something said at home when I was a kid .........sort of comforting.
However we also say 'Nightie, nightie' and the required response id 'Pyjamas, pyjamas'.
I often say 'we were blessed' when Chelsea play like girls and somehow still manage to win, ignoring and in fact blissfully unaware of my own hypocrisy (I'm an atheist ).
"Methinks"
Usually comes at the end of some really smug pronouncement or other..
when i was at school i studied mathS americans say "you do the MATH" now that really gets on my **** we are not american!!!!!!!
Agree with you about"Crimbo" Prom it's feckin' horrible.
