I don't know why it bothers me so but it does, there are so many overused words especially with the internet and social media, the word I loathe the most is..
Bombshell. Good grief I'm so sick of everyone using this word for every new clip they upload, f f s find new words people. Carl. |

AFL coaches and players talking about sticking to our structures
For some reason it gets to me, especially players repeating parrot like.

(Derived from the clutch mechanism in a manual car, where perfect timing can mean the difference between a launch and a stall)

let's let Ai solve that one for us. In horse racing, NAP is a term used by tipsters to highlight their most confident bet of the day. NAP is short for NAPoleon and is derived from a French card game of the same name. When players were confident of winning a hand, they would call NAPoleon

Young, fairly inarticulate people using the word like constantly while they are trying to express themselves, has replaced uumm.
Foul mouthed people, usually men, who intersperse their sentences with f---k every second word. Not so common now but racecallers who when a fav has bolted in say "go you good thing" Obviously have bet on it but what about the other fav;s they lose on?
