Use other phrases please

I'm amazed at the sudden popularity of "going forward" as a phrase.

MSM

Is it just me or does Ethan's link lead to a previously unknown Finnish ILX?

Yeah weird. You know at first I kind laughed at how ILX looks but after spending time here other forums by contrast look foolishly flamboyant and less respectable.

Almost like a form of google-proofing. Random stumblers upon probably just think the place is sorta crappy.

"Autumnal"

stop saying it. just say it's cold and wet.

but autumnal is kicking up leaves, cinder toffee, fireworks and cosiness.
cold and wet is just a default description of the outside, regardless of season

yeah but people always say "autumnal" as if they're ever so clever for saying this ever so clever fancy word that no one else knows, even though it's just "autumn" with "al and you pronounce the "n".

Don't be hatin' people for enjoying language.

xp ha yeah I see what you're getting at now - check out my arcane knowledge that weather is DIFFERENT AT DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE YEAR, and we have these things called SEASONS and, lastly some of those SEASONS even have adjective forms! yeah grr.

hold on, I think I half-pronounce the n in "autumn". Never noticed that before.

would autumny be better?

(I find this complaint mad.)

It's almost always used like this:

"Brrr, it's getting colder out"
"Hmmm, yes it is feeling rather 'autUMnal'"

It's just a boring word and people keep using it all the time as if they're the first to use this ever so big word....

That's all. I think I'm grumpy today.

i promise you won't hear people using this so much in 3 months time

could be the year hibernal breaks tho

poor ilx user cold and wet manac

"Wintry"

stop saying it. just say it's cold and wet.

No one ever says the weather is 'springy'. They should do.

just say it's cold and wet

just stop talking about the fucking weather imo

did need a word-irritation thread: subbing an article that uses 'pimped-up' 3 times (w/r/t burgers, pastrami + breakfast muffins) over the course of one article.

"whoremongered-up", "pandered-up",

"had some bacon stuck on top of itted-up"

I don’t like the reversed use of “fuck with”

"That worked until it didn't", and variations
