Social media sayings that can fuck off and die

Also not read all thread, so apologies if repeating...

'It's been a minute'

Also, those dog accounts where they talk like a baby: 'Hooman sez I is gud boyz'

Also: "my little family"

'Run don't walk'

Thought of another. Not a saying. A move.

That pose where they show off a lipstick/mascara/eyeliner/ something else by holding it in front of their open palm?

Argh.

If l see the words 'a leggy display' once more....
Every bloody article with some Z list celeb wearing a pelmet skirt or one that's split as far as the ovaries.

@Adrieeeeenne 'This lot'...yes that is cringey, but why?

That's sad if they think a coffee is cheeky. I can understand some kind of incredibly unhealthy or fattening food...but coffee?

I can't stand "I did a thing" and "this one" arrrrggghh

But the thing I hate most isn't so much a saying but when someone BOASTS about being a good samaritan or salt of the earth. It's so cringy! "I found this man on the street and he hadn't eaten for two days so I bought him this bag of shopping" etc. Pic of said man and supermarket bag. Then the person gets loads of likes and "that was a wonderful thing you did" and "the world needs more people like you xxx" and "you are a beautiful human being" and laps it up.

I'm not envious of the likes, at all - I'm not bothered about them and rarely post on SM. It's just that it makes me feel like I'm from another planet. Since when did egregious boasting and showing off about how great you are become a positive thing? Why aren't people embarrassed to do that? How can people not see it's all about ego? Are you really a wonderful person if you use a passing down-and-out bloke for likes and attention? Ugh.

I think, and I am not sure, Unalived is used because some algorithms on SM will block/ report the post if it says dead etc

I think it's specifically related to murder and suicide. Not sure why they don't just add "unalived" to the algorithm.

Love you to the moon and back

GDWM. No. I don't want to get dressed with you and since when did WEARING a handbag become a thing???

God it's all a load of vacuous shite. It makes you want to live in a hole.

Oh and the constant waggling of products being promoted - mascaras, cups, shoes ANYTHING gets a waggling from side to side

I think, and I am not sure, Unalived is used because some algorithms on SM will block/ report the post if it says dead etc

Sorry if I am repeating anyone, surely I am as they are awful, but I hate "Out with these beautiful humans" or "day out with these favourites".

adulting

Doing something “with this one/this lot”

“much needed” (day out/holiday/coffee)

I was going to post they “ate” - what does it even mean!!!

The internet thing I dislike is when people say that a thing is their whole personality now or that liking something or a certain aesthetic is their personality. That isn't what personality is, those are your interests and tastes. Personality is a combination of your characteristics and traits, how you behave and react.

I can never workout if people who say this actually know that a purple Stanley cup isn't and can't be your personality and are just being internet ironic or if there is some blurring between how you portray yourself online, the lifestyle and products you associate yourself with and your actual personality happening.

I hate how everything is now "core" and everyone rambles on about particular "aesthetics". Drives me up the wall.

I do like making memories, though!! But I don't say so on social media.

to be fair, in Japan i want to go to a place that makes 3D latte art and I want it to be stunning :-D

Nom, nom, nom - fuck off, fuck off, fuck off. And I don't even care how good the "Pinch of Nom" books are, I can't have that sat on my shelf.

And people who say words are "literal violence", they are not. Well maybe just Nom, nom...

There's a valid reason for this though - it drives engagement to their page and pushes them higher up the algorithms, thereby making it more likely they can make money from what they're creating. I think it's fair enough if they make and post things for free that they can get something back from it..

Close ups of someone cracking eggs and mashing ingredients… if you mix x with y… and then them tasting their creation with a smug look on their face.

’What I/my baby eats in a day - realistic’. Realistic.

Posts of someone posing with their amazing knitting/crochet, captioned ‘my husband/everyone told me my work was rubbish/ I am embarsssing/ no one would like my cuz’. AI or stolen pictures.

’I am an x year old artist, this is my work’ - not sure why age is relevant, and anyway, it’s blatantly click bait and not even true.

AI pictures of ‘grandmas’ posing with pink Disney princess dresses. When you look closely, they have 6 fingers/crochet hooks coming from their arms…

"Take me back" AKA please admire this photo of me in a bikini.

Aaaannnnd - I can see it 2 posts higher than mine - sorry!
