ANYONE NOTICED??????
ANYONE NOTICED??????
On TV & Radio when English speaking officials, experts etc are being interviewed, when they answer a question, a very high percentage of them start with “So”
It really pisses me off and I wonder if they all get media training
Or is it just me?

annoyance? How about answering a question by prefacing your answer with, "that's a great question."

Pollie asked a question
'I see your point, but I must point out the the opposition have ignored the broader issue. Let me explain, when the Prime Minister pointed out that the incessant harping by the leader of the opposition about our policy on terrorism by quite rightfully protecting our shores from those that wish our country harm, they have nothing to say. Absolutely nothing, whereas as we have been vigilant and unwavering in our quest to protect our nation from harm'
journo.
'sorry sir, I was asking about the proposed changes to the school curriculum in Science and Mathematics'

'That's not my portfolio, I will leave public statements to the appropriate ministerial office, but frankly I think that is not the responsibility of the national government'
journo
'Yes Minister'

I had a bumper sticker in Texas that read 'Beam me up Scotty'. I often wish I could find one in Udon Thani

Re: ANYONE NOTICED??????
I prefer someone starting with 'so' rather than 'uh'
I assumed that people used starting words like that to give them that nano-second opportunity for their brain cells to prepare an answer to a question.

I think that some people are FAR too sensitive. Most talking heads irritate me so I avoid listening to them.

I am absolutely sure that I left my homeland to get away from crap like this. My wife's English is not good enough to enter into a pathetic argument, happy days. Next we will be having a meeting to discuss having a meeting.
