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

"I about..."
Or, in its other form, "I jes' about..."

This is a phrase generally used by small town American women who, despite advances in society, technology and taste, still have a permed mullet, one of those ultra-American dead-eyed smiles and wear sweatshirts with twee bears all up them.

The phrase comes about when such lovely lady is caused offense.

"An' dat bitch took the last frickin' donut. I about lost it on her!"

"I jes' about had enough of yer mouth!"

"I about frickin' laughed my ass off!"

No. Until the end of the earth, NO. I dread going 'home' because these phrases of undying idiocy make me want to stab pencils into my ears.

See also:

BOWLTH for 'both'.
COMF-terbul for 'comfortable'.
FI-yerr (two syllables) for 'fire'.
MIER (one syllable) for 'mirror'.
HUNNERT for 'hundred'.
SAMRICH for 'sandwich'.
U-STA for 'used to'.

Repeat until the only option is to remove The Midwest from the world by force.

Just typing them out caused me stomach upset.

Do they also say stuff like..
"I done shit my pants" (southern drawl)



Doesn't annoy me because I never hear it in the UK but it does make me laugh when I hear it on the simpsons (Cletus)
