Does this phrase annoy anyone else? I don't know why it does but it sees to be everywhere now and spilling over,
I've just seen an advert for live your best pregnancy, I would but I'm to busy with morning sickness to.

(Very Lighthearted thread)

It doesn't mean anything does it?

teyem · 12/03/2019 19:10

Yup, agreed, annoying marketing bullshit.

I think I'm living my only life, unless I have been misinformed ConfusedGrin

Yep, similar to People's Person

meepmoop · 12/03/2019 19:19

Not that I can work out Sparkling Brook, definite nonsense

I think I've been misinformed to UtterlyDesperate, I wonder how we get the other life

Yes, really irritating. I keep hearing a song with it in on the radio, really grates.

ChrisPriss · 12/03/2019 19:22

Just awful, as is "making memories" 🤮

I fucking hate this phrase, lots of people around me keep saying it or if dd is doing something remotely fun all I get is she’s living her best life Angry
Eh no she’s just having an ice cream

Easterbuns1 · 12/03/2019 19:24

Fucking hate it. Only said by me and my friends when taking the piss, for example child has thrown up over the floor, living my best life.

upsideyerelephant · 12/03/2019 19:30

Agreed. Is it instashite?

flumpybear · 12/03/2019 19:35

Oh my best life ... retire extremely early, rent houses in wonderful places across the world for warmer seasons and enjoy my family ...

Dream on Flumpy and get back to work Sad

I don’t really know what it means. Is it shorthand for “making the most of all the opportunities that come my way”? But catchier?

I can’t judge though, I’m doing Year of Yes, which I expect people find an equally grating phrase (particularly as I’m now well into my second year of it! Grin)

teyem · 12/03/2019 19:47

A year of yes Comtesse?

Do you want to paint a few rooms in my house sometime this week?

ijustneedagoodshake · 12/03/2019 19:53

I hate it. It's only
Used sarcastically in this house

Charley50 · 12/03/2019 22:57

I hate it. It makes me feel inadequate. My closest (won't say best!) friends have started using it, and it's making me feel differently about them.
