Do you find it bothersome with the women all over you all of the time?
I mean being such a pretty man and all.

If this is a serious question it doesn't happen. Only time I can recall is a pretty girl at a roller blading ring having her friend saying my friend has a crush on you, the girl Ashly had her friend say it because she was if afraid to say it so that's why she had her friend say it.

We beat ourselves.

It's one of the most common phrases uses to avoid saying a team lost or got beat by the other team often to avoid giving credit. One can't take off their rose colored glasses.

As I recall I think Trent Richardson said this after Alabama beat lsu in the championship in reference to the first game.

Seriously lsu kicked a field goal to win the game, Alabama missed a field goal multiple times.
If missing field goals qualifies as beating yourself then I guess the vols beat themselves in 2009 vs the crimson tide, and the bills didn't really choke vs the giants in their only Super Bowl that was close. Also any other countless times a team missed a field goal to win.

"Boo" as in boy friend. drives me freaking crazy because i don't know how they ended up with "Boo"

also "brae/brah" as in "Sup brah?" Bro doesn't bother me, but 'brah' is a nonsensical shortening.

I dont take kindly to jokes made at my expense in regards to my looks.
Otherwise i do have a sense of humor. Most girls i've asked are taken, one was seeing someone, or not interested.

How about 'idear'?

'worsh' instead of 'wash' has always been a pet peve of mine too. I loved my Grandmother dearly but she said it every single time.

"Good, bad, or indifferent"

1. That is what has always been implied by the classic "good or bad" cliche, until some pointy-headead bastage tried to annoyingly improve it. Totally unneeded.

2. It is not even grammatically or logically consistent in most usages I have heard. "Good, bad, or neutral" would better apply.
