Around here I hear the term "Island" when referring to a roundabout. An "Road" island is something totally different where I come from.
I know it;s been said before but "My Bad". It had to be explained to me by a work colleague a couple of years ago after she used it. I still hate, it especially from someone of an age that should know better, she's mid 30's.

Do any of you watch Coronation Street? If so have you noticed Kevin Webster's use of "You was wasn't you" over the years? I wonder if the actor says that in real life?

Quite dreadful
Have we done "Holistic"?
Why do people feel the need to advertise the fact that they are spouting utter bollocks by using that word? Nobbers.
Edit: Errrh, sorry. I did in 2011! It's still horrible though.

Gutted. As in, "I was gutted to miss the goal."
Tell you what, why don't we get my favourite knife, have a bit of a hack and stab and then you can compare and contrast the two can't you?

That name has got to mean a 10-15% price hike on the tat they sell.

'It's a custom made, bespoke design'. Kevin McCloud was guilty of this many times on Grand Designs but he seems to have stopped these days. I reckon that my several strongly worded e-mails threatening to put my foot through the television and send the script-writers the bill did the trick.

When people refer to men as "mate" or "pal", Liverpool people often use the word "lad" in the same way. An old workmate of mine who originated from Lancaster, but worked in Liverpool once said to me that if he called unknown people in the pub or wherever "mate" that would be fine, but if he called them "lad" the response would likely be, "Eh, who are you calling lad?" with the possibility the question being followed by a thump.
I know it is just a local phrase and if a stranger refers to me as lad I have no problem, but listening to some young scousers talking to their mates these days, every few words are punctuated by the word "lad", there is no way you would ever use a person's name with such frequency, it is cringeworthy.
