I really detest the following abbreviations/expressions which seem to be in common use:
'My bad' when people mean 'I was wrong'
'Addy' when people mean 'address'
'Baggy' when people mean 'bag'
Those three expressions are like chalk squeaking on a blackboard to me!

Yes, I agree. Fortunately none are in common usage anywhere near me.
Interesting - and yes, very irritating - I hadn't heard those before. I hate 'Can I get a *****?' (sandwich or whatever) in takeaway food establishments and 'one pence' (Pedants'R'Us!)...
NAM - yes - I'd forgotten that having not heard it for a while.
