Words/phrases you hate?

[LoyalOliveShaker]

Drop me out

Back in the day

‘Talk to me about’ as in ‘talk to be about your favourite air fryers‘ for example. Hate that, you’re not a celeb 🙄

Call out/calling out/called out. I loathe this phrase so much!
Season instead of series (as in TV)
Can I get......? Ugh.
Passed. What's so awful about saying died?

Kindly. It sounds so patronising

Cringe/cringey (sorry @muddyford :-)).

Gifted (instead of the perfectly adequate "gave").

Boobing/boobed. 8 year old boys used to giggle when typing "boobies" on a calculator. Actual adults using the word to refer to breast-feeding is horrible.

Calling people out - what does this even mean? I always get the old Ricolo (?sp) advert in my head with the yodellers in the Alps.

I also hate “It is what it is”- yes we fcking know that. No one thinks “it is what it isn’t” do they? 🙄

‘At the end of the day’

Gifted
Making memories
Living the dream
Living her best life
Brought (instead of bought)

Love my job
Tucked in / tucking in (as in food)
Our little family

'Grabbing ' a coffee
Hitting the shops
Picky bits
A wine , especially a cheeky wine
'I go in with' eyeliner , highlighter etc
Mains
Hi guys , just thought I'd jump on here and tell you an my latest skincare routine etc

lived experience - there is NO other sort stupid

Going forward - so falsely positive as though the passing of time guarantees progress

Also reaching out - so falsely 'community'

GENTLE RE-FUCKING-MINDER OH GOD NO I HATE IT

Double down (what on earth does it mean?)
I'm not being funny but (yes you are)
X sleeps until (ok for a child but ridiculous when adults say it)
We are pregnant ( no we aren't the woman is!)

This is your sign

Reach out...as in 'thank you for reaching out' in response to a call or email arghhhhh.

Also any corporate speak 'our people' etc

We are pregnant
Talk to me about instead of asking a polite question
Super instead of very
Here to slay
Living my best life
Being my authentic self
Hun, babe or similar
Hubby
Hate meaning someone disagrees with you rather than it’s correct meaning

@Diamond007D - we use 'picky bits' when referring to the snacks our grandparents (who would be well over 100 if still alive) used to serve us and refer to as such. We also use 'mains' but after a lifetime in hospitality its habit and we'd never use in outside our immediate family! I'm with you on cheeky wine! Wine is a very serious subject as far as I'm concerned!

Photo dump 💩

Picky bits hate that saying hate it ,,hate it !!

Anyways
In terms of
I'm obsessed

Reminds me of scabs or crusty spots every time 🤮🤮

Yes, I hate this too. It’s so annoying and usually a boast.

I did Europe. No you didn’t, you saw/visited a few of the many countries in Europe and saw a small part of each of them. You have not “done” Europe.

You've got this! (And worse) you've absolutely got this!

Corporate bollocks speak:-

How is that landing?/how are you landing?
What are the learnings?
What are the gains?

We were just talking about this at dinner tonight

See you later/see you soon- to a stranger, for eg., in a shop

I hate

Safe and well
Thoughts and prayers
RIP
I did a thing
So this happened
