Ending sentences with, "Yeah" makes writhe in annoyance

Dropped object pronouns are mildly annoying. I'm too lazy and uninterested to slap you.

What do you mean?

For heavens sake, don't listen to the Beatles!

Makes [bold] one [/bold] writhe?

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are your new favorite group, OP.

I want to be Jackie Onassis, oh yeah, oh yeah.

Often said with the additional attempted coercion of a question mark - demanding instant agreement.

I thought only English people did this

Well, we do that with “right?” and “okay?”

In reality British TV, I often hear people say, "wasn't she", or "isn't it?" at the end of sentences for the same reason. "She was always a big fan of the Beatles, wasn't she"? They're not really questions, they follow declarative and positive statements. It seems more for affirmation, and the tone of voice for the question doesn't rise as in a real question, but drops. But I find it rather charming. (It's not really an upper-class affectation - I see it more in working class accents).

Watching Wu Tang an American Saga and they do it occasionally too. Seems like they would've been saying "you know what I mean?' instead.

UK football summarisers use this tic, and when often repeated it's really annoying. "He's made the run at just the right time to avoid offside, hasn't he..." "Look at that pass, it's inch-perfect, isn't it..."

It's as though they don't want to seem too declarative, assertive - but they're employed for their knowledge, so why not. It's a null non-question which expects no answer. Pointless.

It's annoying, yeah

The British use "Yeah" as what's referred to as vocalized pauses.

I don’t like those that repeat themselves with a “So yeah … .” And then reiterate what they just said.

Yeah, no.

Life’s tough OP.

This thread = 0/ 10, yeah...
