Words MN has made you dislike

[dexterslockedintheshedagain]

Just reading through a couple of threads, and realised that, due to their (over)use on MN, there are some words that now make my teeth itch.

Words like 'gentle' (I see it as quite PA) and 'yummy' (always makes me think of some Lycra clad female jogging with a pushchair for some reason).

Am I alone in this, or do others have words they've come to dislike too?

Gentle for sure! Very passive aggressive.
Hubster
Nice ham
Take yourself off to.....usually a spa...not a word I know.
Cross, I never hear anyone say it in real life.
Pamper...just no !!
Picky bits...no, no and thrice no!

Picky bits! Not that I ever heard it used outside MN, but it really grates on me.🍢🍖🧀😅

Fuming
Livid
Having anxiety
Teeth itch (sorry OP!)
Picky bits (yes, it's awful)

Hubby
Mom
Vile

’naice’ - I just can’t picture what this means. Actually nice or pretentiously nice. Luxurious or flash. ‘Naice’ on MN is really beyond me (and therefore I dislike it).

”Just no” annoys me.…

Lovely

Lol!!

Wow, and I thought it was just me! You've all made me feel so much better, thank you!!

Picky bits and dippy eggs (never heard either in real life)

Yep, picky tea. Urgh.

"Wobble" as in "give your head a wobble". Horrible. Makes me think of Mr Blobby (may he burn in hell).

Eating carbs and crap, metabolism and hormones in one sentence makes me want to gag

Super

Overuse of the superlative 'super'.

'Gift', 'gifted' or 'gifting' instead of present, gave or giving.

And the very worst of all, 'sat' or 'stood' when it should be sitting or standing, when used in the context of present tense - even professional writers and broadcasters are now committing this appalling crime and, sadly, it is a growing menace.

All the DH, DP, DD, DS etc stuff. It doesn't exist outside of MN (as far as I can tell).

If I may add two phrases rather than words: "Wow. Just wow." and "Did you mean to be so rude?" Even just the word "wow" now annoys me.

Cooking from scratch
Batch cooking.

Prepped. Nothing is prepared anymore.

Vile - great word ruined by being overused, and often wrongly, on here. Someone described a fairly innocuous difference of opinion as vile the other day.

In a similar vein, phrases like dog whistle and purity spiral which started off life as useful concepts and are now liberally applied to anything some posters disagree with.

I particularly loathe when people say their washing has been darker on. Tits the lot of them.

Also who substituted super for very? There's nothing wrong with very. Nothing at all.

Ddog. You know the abbreviation is supposed to make things shorter, right?

Conflate.
