Phrases or words you hate

[katie20202]

I absolutely loathe the word- moist

Innit

I was stood there
I was sat there

It's standing there
It's sitting there

Fell pregnant

I also hate the word. Maggot
And cockroach

I feel sick at the thought of them which is why

My daughter said this to me when I asked her to visit me

No I'm good

My other daughters explained it means she doesn't want to visit😥

Treat myself
Spoil myself
Pamper myself (worst one of all)

Generally whined out or said in a tone of faux positivity by martyred women who feel permanently put upon 🙄

I had to hide a thread earlier because of the first one 🤢

Woozy
Creamy
Clammy
Tasty
Settee
Pouch
Fluffy when used to describe food 😷
"To name but a few"
"The likes of X, Y & Z"
"...and their ilk" - it always sounds so aggressive
Get your xyz on (e.g. "we're getting our xmas/halliween etc on")
"Cooking from scratch", or worse, "scratch cooking" - no, it's just cooking

"We're doing Barcelona" or "We've done Thailand" it sounds so arrogant.

Cuppa
Hubby
Fab

"You do you."

Thanks for that, I will 🙄

I swear I never heard this in my life until my MIL gave me some of those 'Take a break' type magazines years ago. Always thought it a ridiculous phrase.

Caught feelings.

Just sounds daft!

Calling squash 'juice'. No, it isn't the same thing at all. Please call it the correct name.

‘Lashings of’…..custard/gravy 🤢

Rollercoaster of emotions 🙄

My type on paper 😒

Delicious.

Quite unreasonable of me I know, there's just something about it.

When Americans say 'panties'.

Only surpassed by 'titties' (pronounced 'tiddies') when referring to boobs.

Veggies
Yum/yummy (unless said by a small child)

I nodded off, I was nodding etc!

DH says it lots and it irrationally irritates me!

I love this too. I always feel like they’re on a game show…

Congratulations to Noreen from Folkestone who completed Barcelona on a three-day mini break with her husband Gerald.

Cupboard - it's a press
May I have - it's not the 1800s
Aitch - stop dropping your haitches
Got for the past tense - it's gotten
Naughty instead of bold - why use a sexy word for a small child?
Telling off - it's giving out

If you see what I mean

Gives me the ick - the very word 'ick' should be forcibly removed from the English language and everyone who uses it should be MiB memory cleansed so it is never used again.

Playdate 🫠

Yes! I hate the word meal, sounds so unappealing like some sort of grainy slop. Also people (looking at you, Gggregg Wallace) who pronounce it 'miw' makes it worse. 'That's a laaaavvly miw!'
