Default a new phrase has made it into my Hatelist!

Simples!

I'm sick of people using it already, its not funny at all. Infact it makes u sound like a gimp!

Even the advert that it comes from isn't funny so why do u think it would be funny to say it to me in person!

Frakkin' hate people!

Simples!

I caught my mum saying it the other day; In which I reminded her of all the childhood years where she corrected my use of Black Country colloquialisms.

Have to admit, I did like the ad. Been done to death now though.


Haven't heard anyone say it yet though.

You find the crappier the advert and more annoying, the more likely people are to remember it. Job done!

I get wound up by the confused.com ads.....I still used the website when I was looking for insurance on the wifes car though because I remembered the name!

Or for those that can't be bothered to type the same details in loads of times.

Admittedly I wouldn't use it for my modified Impreza, but for the wifes standard car it worked well.
