This is a question Annoying words and phrases

Marketing bollocks, buzzword bingo, or your mum saying "fudge" when she really wants to swear like a trooper. Let's ride the hockey stick curve of this top hat product, solutioneers.

Thanks to simbosan for the idea

"You're such a nerd"
No I'm not. Well, maybe I am, but you've just met me and I haven't
started discussing quantum theory yet, so there's no way that you could know this.

Knowing the difference between your and you're does not make me a nerd.
Knowing that ironic does not mean what you think it means does not make me a nerd.

You calling me a nerd usually implies that you possess the intelligence of a toothpick.
Fuck off now please before I throttle you for your inadequacy.

I also think the phrase "Oooh, so you're like one of them smart people?" should be grounds for justifiable homicide.

You are a nerd, it says so in your profile.
Also, which definition of ironic are you complaining about?

I'm assuming strangers I meet IRL don't have the means to instantly look me up on b3ta and draw conclusions about my character based on my profile.

I use irony like so:
If a hooker lives in a town called Boner, that's NOT ironic.
If a hooker lives in a town called Virgin, that's ironic.

I'm complaining about people who think that 'coincidence' and 'irony' are interchangeable.
