That too, but no doubt the favour is returned. I saw an elderly man explode at my local Checkers when the cashier rattled off to her colleague, unbeknownst that this chap understood everything she had said. The guy fired back in her language and called the manager over. They were talking nonsense about him and he heard it all. Her face was priceless.

The big trend now, especially in business speak is to begin answering a question with 'So....'

Q: "Your ROI is exceptional, what are the reasons?"

A: "So, we looked at innovative ways to maximize synergies and unlock potential going forward, let me unpack how we did that..."

Business jargon and buzzwords like 'community','social media','viral','start-up', etc. is all just puffery.

Thought that was a bit weird....watching quite a few of the Elon Musk interviews, he almost always does this....strange
 
When a person calls you with an unknown number and you ask who that is, then they answer with "it's me".

A name please
 
When you watch episode 9 of a series instead of one.

Happened to me with The Leftovers...and I was going wtf is going on here the whole time, then watched the pilot and thought now this is even more confusing.
 
People getting irritated in queues, then making loud comments to other people in the queue....even giving solutions...as if they know what the situation is
 
So true.. All these damn buzzwords and everyone using them cos they hear everyone else..
 
People that come to my place and wanting me to change my music to their tribal beat BS because the host must make things comfortable for everyone else besides himself, and to top it all off, I must make a potjie and watch the pot.

And afterwards, when all is done, people still listening to their BS but I cant even put on MK9 or change the TV channel while they are listening to said BS because it is deemed as rude...not like they need the Fscking TV to listen to their music.

But hey it's rude to play games when you have guests that you not even conversant with...
