To absolutely cringe when people

[Clossaintjacques]

use a web address as a statement

I'm tired dot com!! No you're just fucking tired why put .com on the bloody end.

Does anyone else hate this and if so what's the most cringe worthy example you have heard.

I suppose it is in the same league of 'I heart' whatever....

'Hashtag is Twitter isn't it? I think Twitter is way way beyond the wrong side of wanky but maybe that's just me being a curmudeongly old fuck?'

Menopausalhaze rofl at your post ^^ in quotes above

When my teenager has her friends round there is a lot of lolling and roffling at my kitchen table.

Why don't they just laugh or fall the the floor rolling and laughing? Fools.

Maybe mumsnetters could have their own for example

I hated the phase when everything was "sick" to the DC.

Or the latest urban street talk "give him some props" I actually had to look up what it meant.
I even heard Simon Cowell say it the other week now that was cringe worthy

I can't abide a string of them as in-

ROFPMSL, LMFAO!!!

I mean how much laughing can one actually do? And I need my arse, never mind laughing the bloody thing off.

EricNM - I am of the "...not" generation too. That was from wayne's world, was it not?

Also "see that bag lady over there in the street? That's your Mum, that is" a la Mary Whitehouse experience.

Also, everything was "bad" which really meant "good"

"sick" can also mean get really angry....I work with teenagers and they with often say he/she/mum/teacher will "go sick" at me...the first time i heard it I actually thought they meant their Mum would deliberately be sick on them, and I just though "that's a bit harsh" to myself....

What does giving props mean?

I still do the Mary Whiteshouse thing.

Oh how wanky

ENM that was wayne's world, wasn't it?
I hate the Mary Whitehouse thing. It's one that I can't even summon a polite smile for.

It's like a reincarnation of text speak.

Fucking awful.

Dot com.

What's the Mary Whitehouse thing?

"see that piece of chewing gum on the ground over there...that's your dinner that is." And so on. Until you just want to hit them. And the fact it is so unfunny and annoying and goes on and on IS the joke, I know that. But I just find it unfunny and annoying and wish they'd shut up.

I hate all these things. Hate the.com thing and I REALLy hate people who say the letters O.M.G instead of just saying "Oh my god". Especially when they say it TWICE. Sets my teeth on edge!

you lot must hang round with a lot of 16 year olds. I only know one person who does this sort of stuff, and he only does it in a slightly ironic way, to secure his place as baby of the office.

The dot coms annoy me, but I don't mind the hashtags. To me it's like a funny aside, in the same way lots of people on MN use . I don't like the strings of letters (especially when said out loud) and I can't resist replying with OMFGWTFBBQ?

Yes 'sick' is just vile and stupid.

Those who have teenagers do you just 'suck it up' (that's another one) or try to stop them saying such ridiculous expressions?
