Words you cannot bear to read or speak or hear

[squinker45]

I cannot bear to read or speak or hear some food related words. It is difficult for me to write them as I feel so ick about them but here goes:

Tasty
Delicious
Sweet treats (or just treats)
Snack
Yum
Nom
That slurpy face emoji (I refuse to put it here)

Uuuuuuurgh I feel ill now

What is wrong with me? Anyone else or am I a massive weirdo?

Gobsmacked, don’t know who originally came up with it but it’s horrible

When adults refer to their parents as mummy and daddy.

Gonna, kinda, sorta.

Don’t mind so much hearing them, but reading them - 🤬

I hate gobsmacked too.

Also peckish. My XH used to say it all the time when asked if he was hungry.

Are you tryna wind me up 🤣

No idea why, but I really hate the word “spends”

Agreed. What a superb mismatch of the twee 'pop it in a bag' & the brutal 'hit it with a brick'. 🏆

Tummy
Snuggly
Yummy
Cosy

‘Vanishingly’ is a godawful word. I’d never heard it until I came on MN and someone complained about it on a similar thread to this. Before then I’d never heard it but since then I’ve seen it pop up on recent threads. And they were right it is terrible. Who in real life EVER says that word?

‘Love Language’

‘Content Creator’

Life admin - god knows how I cringe when I read this on mn. But no one I know ever uses this saying.
yummy- a grown adult saying this is childish
tummy- same
poorly
supper as in evening meal. I’m cringing writing this 🤢

Purdy & Figg 🤢 makes me want to break something. Sounds so smug. I think it’s the makers’ actual surnames but just ugh. Sooooo many ‘X&Y’ brand names around at the mo, it’s unimaginative, and that combo together is just SO unbearably twee.

Since I’ve just seen it elsewhere - ‘brekkie’. Ugh!

FiL used to call it ‘brekker’ which is almost worse.

Beginning a sentence with 'nah' instead of no. It may not be meant that way, but it sounds (and reads as) sneery and dismissive.

Nightie , can't bear it and any word for pyjamas that's not pyjamas .

When you're on a work call and it finishes early so they say they are "giving you time back" oooooooh thank you, I'm beyond grateful 🙄

It’s probably happening less than a few years back, but when people say “absolutely” instead of “yes”.

Just had to hide another thread where a presumably adult poster actually said

and now my belly is warm and full yum yum

Fucks dake

Ditto to pamper/pampering, especially in relation to spa days/massages.

And it really gets up my nose when Brits write ‘ass’ when they mean ARSE!

(From Yanks it’s allowed.)

Ditto ‘math’ when in the U.K. it’s MATHS.

Oh, and ‘pissed’ when they mean pissed OFF.
Phew, I feel better now.

Crotch

no no no no no no no no
