I am still Thor the Threadkiller but not only am I wearing a disguise, I am also on holiday. I don't mind hun and stuff (lightning bolt strikes), but last week I had to explain what 'hubby' meant to some German friends, and it made me cringe in embarrassment on behalf of the people who say hubby.

It is creeping in everywhere I tell you. Even on Instagram, I'm noticing increased use of the lil' abbreviation for little

It's too fluffy for me all that 'hun' nonsense. And the kisses at the end of every post.

I haven't noticed it much, fingers crossed they haven't infiltrated too far.

I can't stand LO, also. I had to look up what it meant after reading it on here (little one for those who also have no idea).

I use lo as well. have to laugh at "you ok babe?" I see that on fb all the time from a "friend" that posts one liner updates such as "god some people need to learn to shut the fuck up and mind their own business". so frickin attention seeking.

never heard of "makes my teeth itch" til I came to MN. its annoys me. lol no reason really. just does.

They should all be banished and shipped off the The Land of Hun. Where the sky sparkles, they all dress in pink, and the language is text speak.

I am so incensed by all this that I may have to go for a protracted lie down. I hate hate hate hun, hunni, babez etc and what's this new one I see creeping in - referring to a female friend as 'wifey' - WTF is that one?

LO is just awful, lil for little is beyond awful - let's keep this shizz off MN!

I'm getting increasingly frustrated with the "unmumsnetty hugs" that have been occurring on here recently. I'm seeing more and more each day, which therefore is starting to make them "mumsnetty unmumsnetty hugs". We will soon need "unmumsnetty mumsnetty unmumsnetty hugs"

unless we flip it and start using hun to mean "horrid ugly numpty" or something.
