"tight" as in "the band was tight":
 
 Unless it's a highschool band in a garage --- any semi-professional band that is onstage in front of a paying crowd has to be, by definition, TIGHT.
 If they're not, then it's appropriate to rag on 'em and use "tight" as in "the band was NOT tight"....

Worse.  Boston College.  
 
 And I see now that I forgot the word "from," which may have been the problem.

"Dude, that's MONEY!"
 
 Just one of those phrases that is worse than nails on a chalkboard for me.

people still say that? really?
 
 for some reason, it really annoys me when people say 'cheers' instead of 'thank you.' i realize this is a european thing mostly, but it has always annoyed me.

Which reminds me:
 
 Non-Europeans that use European phrasings, like saying "holiday" when talking about a vacation.

You mean like a guy from Southern California calling other Americans "lads"?

You know, I always ranked smackie as one of my favorite boardies, but after this thread, it's apparent that I hate his guts.  Sorry, brah.

...just for starters.
 
 "Awsome"
 "Word"
 "My bad"
 "Have a nice day"
 "Hey guys" - especially when addressing women.
 "Hmmmmm mmmmmm" - When you've said thank you to someone
 "Bloody wanker" - We don't actually say that back home you know.
 
 
 As for "for shizzle" I don't even know what that means.
