Faux
Get your ducks in a row. (Never heard that anywhere outside MN, maybe it's a regional thing.)

Oh no, not this thread again ...

Large of nork. Who the hell would say that in real life without looking a complete bellend?

Narcissist. Everyone is a narcissist apparently even though real NPD is pretty rare. No one is ever just an arsehole or unpleasant person.

You're welcome to ignore it. The thread title gave you a bit of a clue. 😉

I spotted 3 examples of faux in one MN sitting. In real life they'd almost certainly say fake, or false, but on here they feel the need to use a posh word. 😅

"That's odd". When really they mean I wholeheartedly disagree, I'm a bit disgusted by it and I am judging you for it.

Obviously I've heard the word off before but I come across it here way more than real life.

“Vile.”

DogbertMcDogglesworth · 09/07/2023 15:48

Everything is grim, vile or odd.
Change the locks, thirty minutes free solicitor consultation, cancel the cheque, are you on glue, MN bingo, MN chicken, massive salad and naice.

Pearl clutching, tea spitting and LTBing are things I've only come across here.

SnappyDragony · 09/07/2023 17:50

Whenever someone says "vile" I always read it like linda from gimme gimme gimmie says it😂
