What English expression do you hate the most?

[Venod]

At this moment in time, do you mean now ?

The bike expression " dialled in" for setting bike up correctly.

Ending a sentence with me when it's not needed as in.

" I like that me" yes the I made that obvious.

Well I’m dill-lighted to find the details. Bit like an iceberg with most details hidden under the surface.

A mere dill-ettante, you're not taking this seriously, and will end up in a pickle if you carry on.

It’s not a full expression that annoys me, rather an incomplete one-

My step daughter will say “shall we go beach?”

As opposed to

“Shall we go to the beach?”

In her defence it might be a Devon/Plymouth thing as my ex in-laws used to say the same thing.

It’s nails down the blackboard!

Yes that's Devon! Old dears I hadn't seen for some time used to say "you still working down cwop" as in, are you still working down at the co-op

I don’t want to embarrass myself, get egg on my face, and blush like beetroot

 

[Flick of the Elbow]

“Running” instead of “using”, eg. in relation to brand of tyre.
“Cockpit” instead of “handlebar”.
“Head unit” instead of “computer”.

OK, enough I admit defeat. I am beet-en, a has-bean.

 

[Dave 123]

One scouserism I never understood was “down the banks”

As in “he gave me down the banks” = a severe telling off.

Anyone fancy a game?

 

[oldwheels]

England is Britain! If you don't believe me then why is it the only one of the four nations that plays the British national anthem as its national anthem. Hah! Case proven!!

The so called British National Anthem has a second verse which goes on about crushing the Scots.
Seems to be conveniently forgotten about.

 

[Smokin Joe]

A common one used in football is to describe an upcoming game as "A mouth watering fixture". More often than not it turns out to be anything but.
