Phrases that make you cringe

[BitSilly]

'Creative juices' is awful.

I genuinely laughed out loud at this.
So true.

Tell me XXX without telling me XXX

Yes!! Also heard " One day you'll stand up and turn around.." meaning "you'll come to a realisation" 🙄

Do me a solid.

I hate piece when it's used in the context of clothing.

"I got this piece in Paris" -it's a fucking jacket, not a piece ffs.

Omg YES. Even more when people talk about “pieces” they got from a bog standard shop.

Yeah, when they're about to say something offensive!

How is “cooking tea” annoying please? I say that every day 😅 As in, “let’s go home, I need to start cooking your tea” (we do use tea/dinner interchangeably if that makes any difference!)

At that I'd have lost my mind ....

Anything where you use hun, hunny, huni

Looping someone in, touching base, you've got this, let's do this

Going in - I saw a TikTok with someone demonstrating hair products saying after the shampoo she was going in with the conditioner - what the ???

Littlies, little man (we never hear little woman - thankfully)

Love language - just grow up

"X years of you Araminta-Fenestra!!" (on social media on a child's birthday)

Goals - as in couple goals, family goals - it makes no sense at all and more sickening with a hashtag

This one / This one though / my world

Imma

Though I REALLY like making memories!

“One and done” annoys me for no real reason

"Batch cooking" makes me shudder.

"Trying for a baby" 🤢

Anyone who refers to themselves and their husband as "a team" 🤮(I immediately think if he's not already having an affair he soon will be, and I wouldn't blame him at all)

I hate this, too. All I can think of is toddlers and potties.

I tell you what else really irritates me and I often see it here:

Instead of 'tell him to do the washing.'
'I'd be telling him to do the washing up.'

'I'd be asking him to leave.'
No! Just 'ask him to leave.'

'I'd be rearranging.'
'I would rearrange.'

Not so much phrases, just 2 words that are massively over used on here.
Grim
and
Vile

At the end of the day right it is what it is.

How to say nothing in as many words as possible

“I’m done” in the context of a refusal to accept something. Just conjures an image to me of a grown adult sticking out their lower lip, folding their arms and angrily plonking themselves down on their bottom.

My late mum used to hate “going forwards” in the context of future plans and would call out “Don’t want to go backwards!” if someone said it on tv or radio which was pretty frequently. Since she died, I do it too.

😂 Another new one to me.

What does it mean?

Holibobs
‘can I get ‘ is awful. I don’t know why so many people say it.

God, ALL of the above, plus:

Glow up
Abroad holiday
Forever home
Euphemisms for eating like "reach for", "grab", "munch on". Just say you fucking ate a biscuit. Also "reach for" when used for dressing—just say you fucking wore a top
Verbal diarrhoea—switch it up, swap it out, cook it off, cook it down, roast it off... Three words used, when one would do
"Up" as a verb—"I need to up my exercise"

Mumsnet is basically unreadable.

Anyone who puts super in their sentence “super clean”, “super friendly”

and those who put “teacher here, nurse here, Dr here” just put I’m a nurse etc

🙄

To do someone a favour.

Calling a holiday in the UK a bloody staycation.

It’s already been mentioned but ‘you’ve got this’
Also when people say ‘You smashed it’ ‘you will smash it’ etc etc
Going on holibobs. Any adult who uses that word is a twat!!!

I had a tradesperson round who referred to himself as ‘ we’ it was bizarre. He was on his own.

Another post that's made me laugh out loud.
I can feel your irritation through the screen 😂
