Two questions in English that make me sick

[rant]Recently I’ve been watching a lot of fairly older television shows on Hulu.com and Netflix.com and I’ve noticed that some phrases that people say in movies just irritate me.

It’s those lines that are given to the extras who just get to pop in for a five second phrase to fame…or to a never ending struggle for success.

Have you ever heard anyone same either of the following two phrases?

  1. “You want I should” do-something-here?
  2. “What can I do you for?”

They just sound so ignorant and uneducated. I always just want to turn off a show or stop a movie dead in it’s tracks when I hear cheesy lines and these two ridiculous questions aren’t much better.[/rant]

Anyone know of any more commonly used questions or lines in general that are just flat out annoying? Post them in the comments!
