Grow a pair...

[dexifehatz]

When did this cringey saying become popular? It really gets on my nipple ends.

Honestly, you really ought to get a life

And then get over yourself

I actually did say "grow a pair" tonight

And I'm really conservative and old - we are going to hell in a handcart!!

I prefer the expression "find your balls" far more specific.

...reminds me of Jeremy Kyle and makes me want to eat my own arms - along with 'put something on the end of it' and 'suck it up'

cringes

Man up FFS!

Get some cojones!!

"Man up" - I first heard this out of DS mouth back in 2004/2005. And it was probably old then because all the kids were apparently saying it.

I actually quite like some of these

But then I enjoy the diversity of language.

Not keen on the lack of basic knowledge with respect to spelling and grammar though.

FFS Get over yourself :)

but first build a bridge..and then get over yourself....

evening newwave!

'Nipple ends' is a bit cringey too - that could get on my tits

Good evening Pan, all ok I trust.

I need to push the envelope on this thread or maybe run it up the flagpole :)

"Nipple ends" is a new twist "ouch" :o

gud, newwave.

I was once 'led' by a manager in the 80s to 'unzip the problem and get tooled up'.

Didn't work.

amaterasu, what on earth does "put something on the end of it" mean? It sounds quite disgusting!

YANBU. I don't like this. Or man up or anything similar. Generally as I hear them being used towards children who are seen to be a bit 'sensitive' maybe.

In the doctors the other day, a woman came out of the nurses room with her DD, I would say early teens. She had clearly just had a jab and the mother was telling her not to be such a wimp (DD was rubbing her arm saying it hurt). I hate it when people talk to their children like this.

"Get a life" really sets my teeth on edge. It just seems so teenagery (there I have made a new word - ).

I don't mind who grows a pair, as long as they put a banging donk on it.

Someone at work told me to 'talk to the hand' last year. I was very disappointed at how outdated and derivative this was when 'fuck off' is both available and classic.

I often think this about my ex - but only because I am certain his wife actually does have his previous pair locked away in a jar.

Of course - I'd never say it to him. Because then I'd actually be talking to him - which is against the rules.
