Yes I hate that. I hate all this childish nonsense.

Adults who talk about x number of ‘sleeps’ till their holiday etc make me feel intense rage.

I once unintentionally upset someone by absent-mindedly responding "not for insomniacs"

At my work, we are often told "2 more sleeps" before people's holidays/weddings/weekends/whatever

Also a woman I work with goes to Disney once a year and she calls it 'going home'

It is really fucking annoying. Along with 'no is a complete sentence' and several others.

I never really understand this one as it sounds so rude. Would you like to come over for coffee tomorrow? No!

Maybe it means you don’t have to explain why you don't want to visit your mil or something but unless you are very angry at someone why would you just say no with adding to it?

It remimds me of teachers telling off primary kids. There are less patronising ways of saying ' you really should have said something at the time'

Oh yes that’s another one. 😡 They might as well say x number of dinners, it’s that stupid.

Can I add this to the list:

"You dont get to...."

As in "you dont get to decide how I feel about this".

I dont have a problem with the intent but the "you dont get to" sets me teeth on edge, like the speaker is a 16 year old American girl and not a 45 year old woman from the UK

I think this nails it really. You don’t mind the sentiment of ‘use your words’ but don’t like the term as you consider it infantilising.
Some don’t mind the sentiment of ‘Get to f**k’, but don’t like the term as they consider it crude and ‘dumbed down’.
Each to their own!

Directed at the twats on here who patronisingly say it to posters
"Why did you not use your words"
"Use your words"
Use my foot up your arse you patronising twat

It’s incredibly annoying, I’ve only seen it used on here recently, nobody I know says this in real life. Isn’t it something people say to toddlers ?

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

I was on the train across from a group of 20ish yo girls. Honestly they were like walking cliches. Everything they said was "My heart is full", "literally", "like" in between every other word.

They were "using their words" but not half getting on my wick. I must be getting old.

Unalived might be a way of getting round automatic blocks triggered by certain words on social media.

Gently, OP ...
Gentle reminder ...
I was today years old when I learned ...
Forever home
Hubby

Hate all these.

Yes to all these.

And ‘you must be fun at parties’.

Instead of ‘use your words’ why not say, ‘tell them you feel that way’. Much less patronising.

I also dislike ‘unalived’. I see it a lot now.

Well not moan for a start. Weren’t you moaning about young people being rude for not buying gifts for people’s who job it was to teach them? Then got pissy in the comments with everyone who disagreed with you? Okay 🤣

I don't know if the OP is Scottish but Get to fuck is definitely used here.
I once heard a police officer say it to a very mouthy drunk in Glasgow. It was a very effective way of getting rid of him.

It's the phrase "use your words" it's designed for children , you could say to another adult
"Why don't you have a conversation"
Or
"Listen mate, just fucking tell him"

Use your words is infantilising

Show quote history

I think that's the point, isn't it? Paraphrased, it's "You're acting like a five year old about this, all it would've taken to resolve it is having a conversation like a grown adult".

gannett · 08/07/2025 07:50

It's meant to be. No one who says "use your words" to another adult is trying to be nice.

Wet lettuces who don't communicate properly and expect others to read minds are not behaving in a proper adult way, hence people will speak to them as if they're not proper adults.
