    "You can have my gun, one bullet at a time."

    Fucking idiots.

    I hate when kids say "Do a 'pop a wheelie!'", as if "pop a wheel" is the noun.

    Non bike related, I'm ridiculously tired of hearing the phrase "going green" on tv, specifically in car commercials. The last one for today, is any word that trashy parents decide would make a great name for their child if they just change a letter or two, or put an apostrophe in the middle of, as if it's not going to destroy their kids when they get to middle school. examples: Desyre, Myjoy, Tomorra, Turquoise, LATRINA..... and yes, I've come across people with those names, or people who have named their kids those names. That list could go on for days. Honestly, how do you grow to be old enough to be able to have a child, and not know that latrina is another word for a toilet, and not the name you should give your kid.

    Hey, stop quoting my dad's bumper stickers! ha. "fixie" bothers me, mostly because I associate the term with people who annoy me not because I find the word inherently crappy. My grandma said "fuck" today, she is 80, it was odd. As a person employed in the environmental science industry, "green" annoys the shit out of me and "organic" is getting there too. They have both been so bastardized. Maury paternity test baby names are annoying. "bikers dont get boners" has been yelled at me by high schoolers. I laughed that time but if I hear it again I'll probably get annoyed.

    Haha nice. Maury paternity test baby names.... Fucking classic. I have never heard bikers don't get boners. Organic and green bother me a lot just because now it means nothing. Just a buzzword for rich people to feel better about themselves.

    Also, as a registered National Socialist the term socialism being thrown around kind of bugs me. But no big deal.

    I'm not a fan of fixie either, just seems to promote a fixed gear as a toy or accessory.

    I ride my bike for exercise or to get places, I don't have it to look cool, I didn't get the thing together to get in with a group. I ride like I masturbate, fiercely and alone.

    I think I may have coined a phase to make others cringe. Go me.
  12.  
    Organic doesn't bother me nearly as much as "natural"...

    WTF, natural foods... as opposed to the other can of corn that was made in a corn factory?
  13.  
    i dont like the word ''green'', because all the sudden if you have a chip bag with 20% of it being from recycled goods its"green". to me thats just stupid marketing.

    "A perfect storm". Incredibly sick and tired of that one.

    "Get off the road!" or "Get on the sidewalk!". Those ones really make me want to (forgive me for this one, I won't use it again) "bust a cap in someone's ass".

    Oh man does that one irk me. I've been a member of the ISO (International Socialist Organization) for years now and have been studying Marx, Trotsky, etc.. to no end since I could read big words. ALL of a goddamn sudden we're back in the McCarthy days and Socialism is some sorta derogatory term used for anything Obama proposes in Washington.
    Ladies and germs I'm here to say Socialism is a VERY different thing than some sort of half cocked healthcare plan or a new tax system for the wealthy.
    Please, please please please, learn the definition of a thing before you use it in a sentence.

    I think other cringe worthy words / sayings right now are:

    "No worries" - sweet christ when the fuck did everyone become Australian here in the states?
    "In this economy" - In what economy? The one where you spent more than you earned and never wanted that to come back and haunt you? The one where so long as the investment firms are making you rich they're wonderful but the minute the goddamn curtain gets pulled back and it's all a scam and you lose some of your ill gotten gains you wanna send everyone on wall street to jail forever? The one where you just couldn't live without 3 fucking SUVs and a 6 bedroom house for you, your wife, your one kid, and your fucking dog? That economy? Now your ass is gettin thrifty? Holy shit I can't wait for MadMax times, I'm gonna eat the first fat rich white stupid asshole I see.
    "Fixie" - yeah I'm gonna have to go with that one too. It sounds cute and all but makes me wanna hit someone in the throat. Would you call your skateboard "Skatie"? You would you call your rollerblades "Rollie"? I should goddamn hope not.

    Yeah, that'll do for now. Man I'm in a mood tonight. I think I might have a stress fracture on the new frame I JUST GOT DONE BUILDING UP. Holy shit that makes me upset.

    Australian huh? I would've guessed Jamaican, I guess it all depends on whether you follow it up with "mate" or "mahn". Kind like how the easiest way to tell if a name is Italian is by putting "pizzeria" after it.

    I thought of another one I can't take anymore, speeches where people start with "It was a bitter sweet moment, bitter because..................., and sweet because............"

    "douche" as often as i use it, and as much as i love the connotations associated with calling some one as douche its becoming a crutch.
    since a bunch of 16 year olds drove by me in their moms hummer and called me a douche this winter the word lost some of its glamour for me.

    who knows maybe "enema" will become the new favorite insult of 16 year old rich kids.

    Example:

    "Guys I am getting my first Fixie. Can you tell me what fixie frame is best."

    I am taking a stand from here on out I will terrorize anyone who uses the word.

    "inclusive"
  34.  
    Two more phrases:

    "Eco-friendly"

    "Carbon Footprint"

    I'm such a spiteful dick that it makes me want to litter and burn fossil fuels for no reason, just so my "carbon footprint" is more like Bigfoot's than Tinkerbell's.

    I also hate when people call me "champ" or "sport", even though I'm an adult.

    "I didn't see you". Grrrr
  36.  
    "Shut UP!"

    Not as in "Jesus christ fool you say one more word I'm gonna take out my right eye, Shut UP!"
    But more like "So I saw Jennifer over at the mall with Ryan and she was all like 'oh hey guys' then walked away!" "Shut UP! no she didn't say that!"

    I know this dumb ass mangling of a perfectly good saying has been around since Sinbad had a career but the shit just bothers me.

    "I also hate when people call me "champ" or "sport", even though I'm an adult"

    How about 'big guy', that one pisses me off...

    When you're talking to someone about anything and they answer with 'right?'
  39.  
    Political correctness is a phrase that makes me want to punch an infant, or even worse,its acronym, PC. GAH!

    Not a fan of the term fixie(even as a relatively new fixed gear rider), either.

    A fellow upper middle class white kid referred to me as "DAWWWG" the other day, I was pretty upset.

    I have an endless supply of words and phrases that I don't like, but these are close to the top of my list.
  40.  
    " I know riiight?" Is the worst on my list, followed by "chillaxin".
  41.  
    me:"are you riding today?"
    some asshole:"you know it"

    sooooo stupid
  42.  
    "Bringing the heat"

    "Steppin"

    "Frontin"

    "All up in my grill"


    "Bromance"

    Using "filthy" to say "cool"

    "Vagina" though I love the organ, not the name

    "Perenium"

    "As if"

    "Hollywood" to describe the movie industry

    "Washington" to describe the government

    When people refer to Israel as "Israel" and when people refer to Palestinians as "Militants" or "Arab Terrorists"

    People who refer to General Aviation airplanes as "little planes" (flying, my other love)

    I hate most things anyway.
  43.  
    I hate people's misunderstanding of the word "minute", like when they run into someone they haven't seen in weeks, and they say "word up man, I ain't seen you in a MINUTE!"

    I also cringe when I hear people saying things like "oh, here go my ........" as they're giving me something, such as "ooh, here go my school schedule" or "here go my birth certificate". I know people came up with the word ebonics to describe the way some people talk, but in all honesty, it's just bad grammar that is so widely used people started to assume it is ok, but it's not.
  44.  
    Vagina


    Um, that's spelled "Bojina."

    i was riding in venice last week when a guy walking his dog with his girlfriend or something saw me and said to his girlfriend "you know what they call that? a fixie." i stopped and corrected him saying "you mean fixed gear?" to which he replied "no no fixie, yeah i saw your kind in a cover article they did in (insert lame magazine name) last month." i seriously wanted to bash his face in front of his woman. "your kind"? what the hell does that even mean?! oooh venice how you never cease to amaze.

    that and "dude chrome is the best bag out there" which i've personally heard a cliche 16 year old say at a critical mass.
    and or, a noob: "i want an aerospoke"
    me: "why on earth would you want garbage like that?"
    noob: "because it looks cool!"
  47.  
    Juxtapose: How I hate this word. I guarantee who ever says this word will say it again within 15 minutes.

    Copacetic: Simply ridiculous.

    Zeitgeist: Upon hearing this, I cringe and slowly leave the room.

    How about "Fashion over function", sounds like some girl buying a purse... Got flung at me right here.

    "my bad" - what the H*** does that mean anyway?

    "retro" or "old school" when it comes to my bikes.. They may be old but I've had them since they were new and haven't found anything better. In most cases are in better shape than newer ones because I've taken care of them.

    "sick" as in nice or cool..
