What phrases/sayings would nobody ever hear you say?

[hello33sunshine]

""Busy making memories" and "I tested positive for Covid".
Both sayings give me the biggest ick 🙈.

The first one is currently making me want to deactivate all my social media until everyone is finished "making memories" this summer holidays 😬😬😬

The Covid one, why do people say it like that? You'd never hear someone say "I tested positive for pregnancy".... whyyyyyy!!!!

Does anyone else have sayings that just really irritate them 🙈

Loveeee this

TBT - captioned with repost of an old photo (we didn't care the first time you posted it)

sorry not sorry

Doing life with you ...

excited for (unless I am excited for a person) - I am excited about, or looking forward to something

impact as a verb - I use affect

gifted, I use given or donated

making memories

talk to when I mean talk about

parent as a verb

chippy tea - it's fish and chips!

I forgot the "cheeky" glass of wine! Why is it cheeky?

And by the same token "these bad boys" in the context of "I bought these bad boys today" (eg new running trainers). Where did that come from?

And "jump on a call". Why am I jumping? Why can't I just call or phone someone?

Which brings me to the excretable "reaching out".

Agreed!

My pronouns are …

'Everything happens for a reason' - no it doesn't!

And Just like that, oh grow up

Making effing memories

Bestie . Twee twee twee

Gifted . please😖

Mrs as in " his Mrs "

Looking to do this or Looking to that

The nauseating Fur baby

But actually I like C**t , find it useful.

Suck it up
It's all in your head
I don't mean to be rude, but ...
I'm not trying to be funny, but...
You should have...
Whatever!
Female used as a noun rather than an adjective

All of the above are little red flags to me about the speaker's intentions and attitude.
At least I have managed to stop my octegenarian aunts telling me to suck it up. They were so keen to say it that they were inserting it into the conversation almost at random. I said teenage American slang sounds ridiculous coming from 80-year-olds and I haven't heard them say it since.

this is actually starting to be quite painful

Let’s have anal

‘I’m not hungry.’ No empathy for anyone who has ever said that.

‘Grabby’ as in being hurt at disinheritance is grabby. It’s not, ninny.

‘Sensitive to… eg lettuce’. Food preferences can’t be interesting.

Beautiful inside and out
Love you to the moon and back
Wonderful evening, with wonderful people
My absolute rock
Prosecco O’Clock!

All of the above I find completely fucking nauseating.

Oh and when people write ‘on route’ and not en route.

Kiddo
Doggo
Pupper
"A wine" instead of "a glass of wine" or just "wine". Although I do say "a beer" or "a gin and tonic" so I'm not sure why that is.

Hubby makes me want to puke.
Calling my children prince or a princess 🤢

A few cheeky…..

I live somewhere that has a county town and a county newspaper. In my head, I remove the 'o' .

I laughed very childishly yesterday when, driving into said county town, I noticed that someone had painted the 'o' out on the 'welcome to... c*unty town of...' sign. But I would never say it out loud!

Ohhh and draw instead of drawer really really really annoys me. How can people not know the difference?

Chester draws for sale.

"brought" instead of "bought"

The phrase literally for non literal situations

like too often in a sentance

Like I literally fainted when I like saw how much wine she'd brought herself in the shop, like 🙄

What T word? Twat?

"Because I said so."
Kids deserve answers.
