I’ve reached the point of feeling a totally irrational surge of rage whenever I see them which is every damn day…

“I was today years old when”

“POV”

“That feeling when”

Anything that is referred to as a “hack”.

Calling an outfit a “fit”

'Cry about it, I guess. '

Just fuck off, you absolute twat.

Calliecarpa · 12/06/2024 08:07

'I don't know who needs to hear this, but...'

'Hi, friendly neighbourhood [doctor/lawyer/plumber/whatever] here'

'Cry more'

Agree with PP - hate "kiddo".
It's right up there with "doggo" and "pupper".
"Little one" is pretty bad too.

Making memories
My world
This one
Anything where someone describes themself as ‘mama’

People who give their kids twee nicknames. If you don't want to say 'my child/son/daughter' or use their real name, just give them a fake name. No-one will know/care that they're not really called Jack or Emily. Much better than 'kiddo' or 'the small one' or 'sproglet' or, even worse, when people make a child-version of their username.

'Don't do this..' some random normal way to do a ponytail, then shows you how to do some elaborate one. Says original ones makes you look shit.

Fuck off. I'll do my ponytail how I want and it's rude to say it looks shit

Women in their 40s dressing like teenagers and hitting the town. Documenting everything on social media. How many shots they necked. How many times they fell over and showed their knickers, how many times their tits "accidentally " fell out of their dress.
I cant imagine how embarrassed their teenage children must feel

Maybe they have no children, what age are people allowed to do this in your judgement

What the heck is the GOAT?!

Show quote history

Greatest of all time.

i know, I hate it too

LaMarschallin · 12/06/2024 07:59

Ooh, ooh! I know GOAT
Greatest of All Time

I'm still young and hip!
(Not really - I'm old with a clicky hip)

Sorry - overexcited.
That was to Majellaa

Halfheadhighlights · 12/06/2024 07:58

I hate vibes too. My SIL posts it all the time

it can be anything, driving vibes, spring vibes, night time vibes. I’m not sure why the addition of vibes is necessary.

Summerflames · 12/06/2024 07:58

Oh and whilst we're at it, what in the name of cock is "addicting" you linguistically-challenged SM cunts!

I've got self-induced rage now.

LaMarschallin · 12/06/2024 07:58

Sweaty 💅💅💅?

I've been looking up the ones I don't know as the thread has progressed, but I can't find out what this means.
My best guess is something like "You’re trying too hard while I'm still chilled".
Am I close?

Majellaa · 12/06/2024 07:57

Catsinpartyhats · 12/06/2024 07:48

All of these.

Plus 'the GOAT'

What the heck is the GOAT?!

truetruebarneymcgrew · 12/06/2024 07:56

(It's so) Addicting
Reach out (to you)
Elevate (your game)

Summerflames · 12/06/2024 07:54

When people post "I love you all the world". Fuck the fuck off, it doesn't even make sense, you irritating fuckhobbit! 😤😤

Whatineed · 12/06/2024 07:52

Some kind of sarcastic retort followed by... "Sweaty 💅💅💅"

Are you perspiring? Do you have B.O.?

Do you mean "sweetie"?

Purplestorm83 · 12/06/2024 07:49

“And just like that” as in “and just like that my baby turned 12 🥺💓💓” I know it’s from SATC but I hate it anyway.

Catsinpartyhats · 12/06/2024 07:48

What does “it’s giving” mean?

Thanks for the thread OP - it’s heartening to see that others hate all these phrases as much as I do!

Whatineed · 12/06/2024 07:43

Magpie50 · 12/06/2024 02:39

Agreed....the one I hate is "I'm literally obsessed with"
No, you really aren't.😒

"I'm literally being paid to be literally obsessed with..."

Isometimeswonder · 12/06/2024 07:42

I hate "This".
When people just post the word this.
I know what they mean, but it really grates!

The word ‘snatched’

Oh and not a word but those stupid little microphones all the influencers are prancing round with while inexplicably still leaning forwards and downwards into their badly positioned phones. I feel so embarrassed for them. They’re talking about H&M jeans not reporting from a warzone.

Yup! There been a few on insta that I used to love now seriously going off due to this madness!

sugarisbad · 12/06/2024 07:39

"At the hospital "-prompting a whole load of "what's wrong hon ?"

No -keep your medical issues to yourself Angry

NoChanceNoWay · 12/06/2024 07:38

The blackmailing into reposting whatever non sense they have shared.

"Only a true (whatever) will share this post"

"I know most of you won't repost this, but..."

"Facebook is going to steal your photos/posts/whatever repost and share this saying that you don't give permission etc etc"

"Share and like this post to get some good luck/energy/a positive start to your day"

I also hate the spread and sharing of misinformation. A random picture and then a caption stating the outrage of this happening. A quick google and that pictures turns out is something completely different.
