The mate one does my head in. You hear tossers all the time ringing into Radio 1 and it's mate this, mate that and they've never met the f**ker before.

I also have an issue with the English referring to the ground outside as the floor. Do me a favour mate  :)

I dont mind it if it's only used an odd time, it's quite nice in some ways but not every other word!

I've banned "butty" and "brew" at work, I think "mate" is going the same way.
