Of the subject, but the phrase that the millennials around me tend to use which irritates me is, "Gotcha." I didn't really hear it until nursing school, when most of my classmates were younger than me. I heard it in response to my giving an explanation of something. I don't know why it is mildly irritating...sort of dismissive, maybe? Anyway. Sorry. TOTALLY off subject. Carry on. |
It's ok you're on subject, I don't care why they say what they say, it's irritating. I mean I say gotcha too, but I learned to talk like that from a 50 something who claims they employed 20 somethings.
