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?

What a small, narrow life you must live, @whatsnewpussycat34 — have you never heard what people outside your town call their mothers?

Overdone and overused.

I can't stand DP DH. Especially when he's being a shit bag and want to talk about it here.

Breed/breeding. Referring to people who have had children.

Can't you just move

I can't bear all the chucking, throwing and popping. Just chuck a casserole in the oven and throw a salad in a bowl before popping to the shop for "bits". It's all so affected. And all the infantile yum and chocs type of language.

The new and ubiquitous "throw this one back" seems to be replacing the ever annoying row of ducks.

Abusive and neglectful men are always "amazing" as well eg "he does fuck all house work and is shagging my best mate but he's an amazing dad".

Report her - another of my unfavourites.

Narcissist / narc etc.

Every single bloody thing on here is 'do you think he/she/DDog is a narc?'

Narcissism is a complicated and actually relatively rare psychiatric disorder. It's not just a thing that anybody you might happen to dislike or not get on with suffers from.

Yes, thank you!! I can't stand the use of "gifted" and "gifting". I swear this has crept in in the last few years. It sounds so pretentious and unnatural, like you're trying to dress up giving someone a present!

Bin someone off. (What absolute nonsense some people spout. I've no idea what it even means.)

Insist
Detest

No specific words come to mind.

This is more of a spelling gripe but can't believe how many people write "women" when they mean "woman".

Eg "As a women I can't believe how..."

It's all over the place and it reaaaallly gets to me.

Teeth itch is awful but worse is boils my piss - both sounds like teenager would use them

Vulva - no one in real life, including doctors, nurses, gynaecologists and midwife's have ever referred to my vagina as a vulva

pack up*, it's a packed lunch (we'll it is in my books)

Lots more but I'm off to find some picky bits to eat 🤣

Ah and also noone when it's no one winds me up too

Grim
Shaking and crying
Shrieking.

Paddington hard stare.
Head tilt.
Tinkly laugh.
Do grown women really pretend to be a fictional bear.

My 5 year old used to give me a hard stare like Paddington - and tell me exactly what he was doing!
This just brought back the memories

A lot of the annoying words aren't Mumsnet exclusives.

I'm grateful to Mumsnet for giving me "darked on", "cocklodger", and all the rows of ducks.

Unmumsnetty hugs.
You vipers.

Not a word but the biscuit emoji gives me the rage!

Entitled. Privilege.

Yawn.

Oh and "screamed" used to indicate any level of slightly raised voice.

Food ones mainly
Choc
Veg
Manage (I could only manage..... )
Plated
Offered
Helped herself to
All washed down with (aaargh shut up shut up shut up)
Tucking in

Also hate San Pro. Sounds like something matron would say.

Hear hear to the word 'super', as in 'I was super excited'.

No. Just no.

And yes, 'reach out' always makes me envisage a Kate Bush-esque woman singing AT someone

And THISone always makes me think of Sons of Anarchy. Or was that Sam Crow.....
