It's just awful when someone says something like that! I remember overhearing a conversation while I was at a store with my mom. One of the people used the phrase "more better" and after he walked away, I asked my mom if I heard him correctly. She nodded, and we were both disappointed with his grammatical error. stressed

Does anyone else dislike the phrase "more better"? I shudder as if nails are being driven into my brain when I hear people say that.
I feel like slapping people who say it Purposly never mind on accident. Some epople actually think it is a correct phrase, I cry when those people start to argue with me. It's just, wrong.

I say it on purpose sometimes as a reference to Jack Sparrow.

"No! Much more better! It is a drawring of a key."

...That is the only instance where I will tolerate that phrase! Otherwise it drives me completely bonkers!  

[YHVHApostle]

Those two words do NOT belong in the same sentence!

It's barbaric and indescribably idiotic.

Isn't "much better" the correct phrase instead of "more better"?  

[Lady Pica]

What do you mean? More better sounds right to me...


Kidding!!! I say that in the newspaper office as a joke, but other than that...*Pulls out triangle-of-death, formerly known as a cake server* Death to the imbeciles.

I have this weird tendency to say "more better" after I say that something is better, but what I call "more better" isn't supposed to be best, so I just end up using "more better". Should I be beaten down with metal bats for doing that? ._."

I can see the temptation, but it's still not correct. ^_^ Say "even better" instead.  

[~Winter Roses~]

Yes, I despise that!
My brothers sometimes say that, I give them that look, like i'm about to scream.
They do it on purpose too.
More better...how annoying, eh?
aha.
yes.
I guess people just have that [[annoying] need to add an extra word, in this case, "more" to their sentences to over exaggerate what thier trying to say. :/

Don't do that to me.

I went pale.

No, seriously, I did.

I'm like cry wahmbulance neutral confused eek sweatdrop stressed scream gonk crying stare all at once.

My band and english teachers uses it as a joke, as do many of my friends. They know it's wrong.

I hate it when people say 'more better' and they know that it is wrong. It just makes me feel like I'm going to explode!!! burning_eyes

gonk That phrase makes me cringe, even though I hear it nearly every day. Americans are doomed as we know it.  

[Doppelgaanger]

Like, a ton of the people I know always say betterer.

And I'm always "what the hell?"  

[Sweet Blushes]

I agree immensely. The awful phrase is truly annoying.  

[Kohy]

I didn't believe people did this on purpose. I always thought it was a slip of the tongue. I mean, often when I'm rushing a sentence when talking, I find myself saying "more greener" or "more sweeter" and not catching my mistake until a friend points out my faux pas.  

[Sweet Blushes]

I agree entirely; it just pains me to hear those incorrect words spoken in our society.
