I think you can/need to do both. You can't tell people to "not be sad" but most funerals I've been too, has been a group of people drinking and talking about all the good times they had with Deady McDeaderson.

Passedy McPassederson surely

I've noticed something that's getting right on my tits. They pronounce the second vowel in nearly every two syllable word as an "i". It doesnt matter which vowel it is, it's always pronounced as an "i" and I just can't unhear it now. 

 

For example:

 

Marcus - Markis

Children - Childrin

Focus - Fokis 

Taken - Takin

Second - Sekind

Doesn't - Duzint

Listen - Lissin

Kitchen - Kitchin

Happened - Happind

 

Hasn't (hazint) taken off in the uk yet but give it time. Just fuck off.

People prefacing words with 'super'.

 

'I was super tired'

'He's super helpful'

 

Starting to get right on my tits.

On my travels in Cambodia, this American woman was having a loud conversation on her mobile (cellphone!) that the whole boat could hear. She repeatedly used the phrase that she was 'gonna super dominate that shit'. 

 

After assaulting everyone's ears she decided to light up a very potent smelling spliff the whole boat could smell

I'm not actually that arsed about Americanisms in America.  It's when twats in the UK start using them.

And you pull them up on it and they shrug their shoulders and say 'meh' or something as equally horrendous.
