Being "Positive and Negative" .!
It is like saying are you happy or are you sad.?
It bears no relation to the end result as a more accurate term would be "Realistic".
Sales companies use this type of thing every day basically as a tool to expunge more work out of their staff.
Most sales managers are failed salesman, but are better 'yesmen' creeping towards their bosses.
They need a good punch in the gob....It does work, believe me.

The phrase " Coming out as a Gay"...
It should read "Queers admitting their sexuality "
"Gay".. means happy.... not spending the whole of your bloody life, running around with other queers stinking of bloody perfume and looking like Dale bloody Winton.
How many bottles of perfume make you happy..or Gay?

when you say to someone, something like
"what time is it"
and they go
"dunno.about 10.30"
I also hate "He gave 110%" - no he didnt
or "think outside the box" - what fucking box
or "the skies the limit" - no it isnt.space is the limit and space is endless so there is no limit

people who say, 'Sorry?' as if you're from Burslem or somewhere and they can't understand you, what they mean is, 'sorry I'm too thick, lazy or ignorant to listen to you'.

I'm another hater of 'Know what I mean'
Then there's 'innit' ugh!
And those folk who say 'With all due respect' translated means 'I don't respect you'
Now you've got me started...
Down here in London we have loads of white kids spouting faux ghetto speak thinking it makes them sound hard and exotic. Whilst in reality they sound like gormless pricks.
Then there's that financial bloke on BBC Breakfast who keeps telling us that 'Red means down and Blue means up' when referring to the stock market. I know, you told me yesterday, the day before and five fucking times last week. Oh and I think the up and down arrows give us a bit of a clue. TWAT!
And finally
I consider myself to be a reasonably intelligent and well educated man. When I buy a KFC or a McDonalds, if I want a drink I'll order a fucking drink. I don't want you to ask me after I have placed my order (and I emphasise that I have placed my full order) whether I want a drink.
I'm not stupid, duh I forgot to order a drink, oh thank you so much for reminding me, I'm such a dufus!
I DIDN'T ORDER A DRINK COS I DON'T WANT A DRINK!
