Words that give you the rage

[Omega16]

Words that I find irrationally irritating

Grab

Bits

literally

Pop

I might literally pop to the shop and grab some bits

What words give you the rage?

Yes to most of these. And may I respectfully submit: icon. Completely overused, and usually wrongly.

When a man talks about a 'female' or 'females' instead of a woman

Popped in (could be very messy)
Jumped in the shower ( risk of injury)
Throwing a party ( could harm bystanders)

Many of my most disliked words have been mentioned already but can I add awesome.

My grandchildren sometimes watch Youtube videos when they're round and you hear the word 'awesome' applied to such various things so often that it loses all meaning.

Babes.

Chillax

"Got me in the feels"

Moist

When people describe all foods as "tasty"

Anyone who uses the word "baby" as if it's their child's name. "I fed baby" "I put baby in the cot" unless they're named after a character in dirty dancing, it is annoying.

When a man talks about a 'female' or 'females' instead of a woman

This always makes me smile. DH and I say it in a Martin from Friday Night Dinner voice.

The way Greg Wallace on Masterchef says 'sauce'.

Garnish. As in

"Steak with a salad garnish"

Also "all the trimmings".

OK, if I can't have inexorably OP I'll agree with PP about myself and add yourself used when me and you would do.
Alwasy makes me think of tiny brains and massive egos in cheesy suits saying, 'That would be myself, Sralan.'

I'm glad someone else mentioned 'tasty', always hated it but soo many people say it.

Beverage

Just trying to explain to dp his incorrect use of myself makes me rage.

When healthy people use 'making memories'

HUN - I hate being called it. It just sounds so fake.

Unique - when you really mean “unusual”
Gender - when you really mean “sex”
Hun

Keeper - as in new boyfriend.

Sarnie shudders

To the poster upthread, 'ta' is a contraction of thank you. Just to confuse things, 'ta-ta' means goodbye and 'ta-ra' was what Cheggers used to say instead of 'ta-ta', which annoyed my mum.

I hate 'off of'. It's from - perfectly good, single word which has been widely in use for many, many years.

Hun. Mom. Wanna. Totes. Whatevs.

"Pathetic"

And

"Stunning"

I don't know why.

Meal
My brother can't stand the word 'enjoy' when related to food

Of, when it's used instead of 'have'

Any sentence that someone types starting 'so'.

Hun!! It's so insincere.

Cuz - my cousins say it all the time.

Amazing
So
Making memories
Hun
Sweetie
Danny
Good call
Cheeky
Mama
Princess

People saying I don't normally swear who then do
