What words are your 'weakness' / 'triggers'?

[Maximum Carnage]

I have to agree with Diamondhead. Every-time I hear it from my sweetheart, I melt. X____x;

 

[Boy Scout]

I'd melt on the inside if one of my female friends (or girlfriend) called me "baby." I don't know why.

Oh, I got one.

A former, PR boss of mine was having an affair with a coworker, and kept referring to her as "his shortie" even though we all knew who she was.

Made me want to punch him through his skull.

You should've done so.

When he gave me my review last year, he offered to rough anyone I wanted up for me as a sign of his gratitude for all my hard work.

And he meant that in all seriousness.

Missed opportunity, i'd say. You should've asked if you could pay someone to do the job for you. He probably would've taken the hint.

I have a number of these, but there's three in particular I want to mention.

Example 1: Saying "sure" between pauses while someone is explaining an opinion or feeling.
i.e, "I tend to get angry when my parents yell at me."
"Sure, sure."
It sounds like the person is validating what I'm saying, as though I need their validation.

Example 2: Saying "that's fair" when someone is giving advice or instruction.
i.e, "You need to add a third support brace to this wall, it won't hold as is."
"Okay, that's fair."
I think it sounds a big egotistical, as though the person on the receiving end of the instruction feels they need to grant the person giving advice permission to do so.

Finally:
"Actually". Not always, but when special emphasis is placed on the word.

That is all!

Hahaha, I do all of these.

 

[CConn]

If you did them all multiple times in one conversation, you'd sound like a tremendous dick.

 

[WalkingDeadMike]

Well, I only do them when I'm being a dick.

 

[A Necessary Evil]

When people make fun of me for being a virgin.

Like, I'm sorry that I get ignored by girls and haven't had my chance yet.

 

[Schlosser85]

I find it really annoying when I tell someone what happened, and they ask "are you sure?" in that super dubious tone.

It's like, if you think I'm lying, accuse me of lying, don't beat around the bush in some thinly-veiled passive-aggressive way.
