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 🙈

Catherine never wears blue because the blue dress is lovely it's always a nod to Diana.

I know the sentiment is good but,
'You got this mama!'

😐😑😐

It is what it is.

You made me laugh out loud @BobbyBiscuits thank you!!

Saying "End of" should be a hanging offence. Usually used when somebody expresses a totally ill-informed opinion then follows it by "End of"
No it fucking isn't!!!

Quality time.

My biggest ick is people banging on about “being pampered” or needing “me time”.

Vomit inducing.

Starting a sentence with, 'So...'

I do, however, love picky bits.

Really can't be doing with "yourself" used in place of "you" - for example "I'm going to be voting for yourself" (oft used, by Harry on the 2nd season of Traitors). Don't know if people think it makes them sound more official...

Holibobs - makes my teeth itch

Making memories - Smug

Hubby - no

Honey as an endearment - fine. Hun - actually I can cope with that. Hunny, however - just no. Unless you are Pooh bear and referring to an actual jar of honey.

people with a massive issue with people saying “furbaby” while I don’t say it I don’t understand why people care so much, instantly to me they are just a hard (get over yourself) no. Don’t know why, I think just because they give off I’m better than vibes and are probably the ones loudly having conversations with a 3 month old in a cafe when everyone else just wants their coffee and cake in peace 😂

also what is this “t” word I need to know 👀

I don't gift anyone anything.

..and may I say that my heart goes out to....... Yes, I'm being nasty but that's what everyone has said and it's beginning to sound hackneyed and boring and insincere.

Haha I just had a long catch-up call with friend overseas and she said this 5x over two hours!

'Sourced' instead of got. Similar to 'curated', 'gifted'. Ugh ugh ugh.

I'd never say 'passed' for 'died' or 'passed away'. Each to their own, but it's too American for me and if someone asks when did my dad pass I actually twitch!

Unapologetically me (or anyone else)

@Moonshine5 thank you!
You may need counselling if you conjure the image too intensely! Haha x

Many of these, also baby Mumma, hollibobs, nom nom, anythink, everythink etc.
All the Beckhams of this world. Or the Lampards, the Gerrards etc
Leftards
Remoaners
Up the duff

Ick

110% - or indeed any % over 100

Does he/she want a drink? (Or similar) Used when a person with disabilities is present with a carer or family worker.
Just ask the person themselves!

I also hate 100%.

"Do you want to/Do you think XXX?"
"100%."

What's wrong with plain old yes?

Oh gosh! Me too!

'Moving forward' when you've explained a perfectly valid reason for a grievance ( to a proffessional) when discussing your disabled daughter's requirements/needs It just invalidates everything you've just said! 🤬

Glad someone said it!!
I hate it too. So infantile. Where the dickens did it come from anyway??
