Using "turned around and said" or "was like that" instead of SAID.As in
'He turned around to me and said, "Who do you think you're talking to?", so I turned around to him and said "Why, do you want to make something of it?" so I turned round and said.......' etc etc etc
and
' I was like that, "No I didn't" and he was like that, "yeah you did" '
They really really fuck me off.
Other than that, I'm Mr Tolerance. Probably.
