So.. I'm getting very annoyed at all the people I hear who start sentences with "so"..

[Chung Tran]

Elizabeth Warren is a good example.. she starts every sentence by saying "so..."

almost every sentence.. I think women do it more than men, but I'm hearing a lot of guys now, too.. it's like a vocal tic, maybe a replacement for "uh", which I hear much less than in past years.

I can't think of a single instance when the beginning word "so" added to the discourse. remove it, and the sentence works just fine

[Jed Clampett]

Good point! I've been noticing "so" being overused a lot lately.

[LuvHerMadlyEverytime]

How about someone who says 'you know' every other word. That's annoying too.

[corona]

yeah, I've noticed the same thing. It's annoying as fuck. As is Bernie's "let me be perfectly clear..." usually when he's being anything but.

[LadyAnastasia]

Almost as annoying as "I got what you need"

Oh, I hate that. And "You know what I'm saying" makes my skin crawl. That Imbecile on the radio, Kris Kroc say that constantly, it's like chalk screeching

Everyone is saying or everyone knows. Who is everyone? Leadership at its best.

I'm getting SICK and tired of hearing Upspeak/Uptalk. It sounds ridiculous in nearly any venue or situation. Very silly sounding.

Per Wikipedia, upspeak entails a rising intonation at the end of any and all utterances. In other words, upspeak (also known as uptalk, rising inflection, or high rising intonation) turns every sentence into a question.

[LargeBreastFan]

I am annoyed by "I reached out to him/her"

How far did you have to extend your arms?
