Phrases you can't stand for no apparent reason

[Thisnamechanger]

I know this comes up fairly often but I feel like we've not had one for a while...

My top ones at present:

Cutesy/cosy phrases used about adults e.g. (spotted on MN) "why were they in the garden at 2am anyway? Surely they'd be tucked up in bed and fast asleep."

Being 'helped to' re. food/drink. e.g. "she helped herself to the last of the champagne"

"tucking in" re. food.

Tabloid favourite here "tipping the scale at".

What makes your brain itch?

Love you to the moon and back again.
Love you lots like Jelly Tots.

So bloody hackneyed they now mean 'I don't love you at all'

Teaching grandma to suck eggs...my old boss used to say this regularly and it made me feel a bit sick

Also

Get rid

@Starlive23 that one makes me a bit sick to my stomach.

Earworm

Girls/boys night out.

Oh my days

Cheeky anything- why, why is cheeky?
You are a grown up who can choose a prosecco/gin/nados/take away any time you want to. Far from being delightfully cheeky, no one cares.

Lorraine Kelly. If I have to quantify then all the purposefully twee phases she uses, all of them.

Famalan
Holibobs

Fuck off

*phrases

Actually maybe it's famalam

Either way, it really pisses me off...just say FAMILY!

Another 'Nourish' hater here. I thought it was just me. It's usually used to describe some inedible concoction of coconut oil, chia seeds and raw broccoli or something equally revolting.
Supper makes me annoyed, especially if it is a light supper. I am very wary of any event offering a 'light supper'. I would expect lots of air kissing and tinkly laughter.
Suck it and see. Ugh! My hideous smarmy ex-boss used to say that and it made all us underlings feel very queasy.

Agree with cheeky. It's bullshit.
"Cheeky dinner" or " cheeky glass of wine" etc

Fuck off.

Also can't stand all this hashtag crap either . That's just nonsense.

Also " got your back".

Fuck off and fuck off some more.

Cheeky takeaway 😣😖😖😖

Arrgghhh!

• What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
• It was cringe

- Starting sentences with 'So,'

@rainbowtrain I'm foreign too so maybe it's just us? 🤷🏻‍♀️

@PickleForPresident I just don't understand why the little boys/girls thing.
Why?

I always want to hurt people who say, "It's early doors".

@TheYoungSharonStone what does that mean?

@rainbowtrain I have no idea but it's mega cringe. I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks it's bizarre and annoying.

"We are where we are" well where the fuck is that then, can't stand it !

“Baby on board“ why, what’s wrong with just being pregnant.

OH THIS IS SO CATHARTIC!

@rainbowtrain As far as I can tell, it pretty much means "It's early on". So why can't they just say that?

Jobs a good un 🤮

Pieces, when referring to furniture or clothes. "I've got these lovely pieces for the sitting room"
Pop, "with a pop of colour"

Oh dear I need to get my notebook out #freeEnglishlessons 😅
