It would be nice if all the others let Caterham win so they could get some real points !

So I nicked this from (off of lol) YouTube The educated classes have been using the word 'so' superfluously at the beginning of statements since the 90s, especially when answering direct questions. Linguists have traced it back to Microsoft employees. For me it is the most annoying linguistic habit to arise since the tendency (in the English speaking world) to finish non-interrogative sentences with the questioning inflexion. This adoption of 'so' as a syllable to announce the beginning of a statement is often by the sort of people who would sneer at the use of 'like' to vocalise the comma or replace 'erm', which they see as a sign of a sub standard education, blissfully unaware as they are of their own ridiculous speech habits. The effect of the erroneous use of 'so' is that I stop listening to the speaker immediately, as my own internal monologue takes over with thoughts like "This person is an idiot".  And that's it in a nutshell

The only good bit is ... ... nah there ain't no good bits

Yea but this is a new one ... are you with me ?

And these people otherwise appear to be intelligent

So why am I hearing more and more people beginning a sentence with the word "so" ? It's becoming prevalent on the news programmes when so called experts are being asked their opinion. It's almost as irritating as the upward inflexion at the end of a sentence that's a statement , not a question ...

Think we'd better get some definitions up here: A pumpkin is a cultivar of the squash plant, most commonly of Cucurbita pepo, that is round, with smooth, slightly ribbed skin and deep yellow to orange A pumkin is a vegetable that is best eaten with the addition of another pea A plumpkin is a fat version of the above

There's no room on this forum for sh!t like that

H'mmm
