To hate the overused MN expression "Are you on glue?"

[MrsWinnibago]

There's just something really horrible about it....rude and unnecessary.

It also smacks of someone trying to be smart and witty buy just trotting out a line they've been taught.

Equally irritating is "Did you mean to be so rude" because it's so overused and "This too shall pass." is also ANNOYING.

This too shall pass is actually a lovely saying but it's SO overused on here!

'Give is a gan of whatever your on'

I tried 'Did you mean to be so rude' in real life once. It was a bit of a disaster. The other person just said 'yes' and I didn't know where to go from that. Don't like that phrase anymore.

Ahem I do still find the "are you on glue" phrase amusing (never uttered it myself though)

Ah Please that sounds painful. It always did sound like a tactic fit only for WI meetings

As you were.

PleaseJustShootMeNow, that really did make me laugh

you forgor vair for very and naice for nice.

if anyone said that to me in RL I would think they were idiots

I also hate, hate, hate the bloody "folks" - sounds so twee and the plural is bloody folk!

I can always hear the blood pressure rising on these threads.

Never heard

Didn't the glue comment originate from a bridezilla thread?

I loathe -

sleb and in my yoof and naice eurgh makes me cringe.

You don't see cats bum face much anymore - thank fuck for that.

The glue comment was from a bridezilla thread a few months ago. I don't mind it but wouldn't use the phrase myself!

I hate makes my teeth itch, stabby, vair for very.

All of these are dreadful. I was going to say I especially dislike "A little bit of sick in my mouth" but really they are all equally bad.

May I add "get the rage"? I've never heard that in real life nor seen it on another forum.

I also really dislike meh. I don't fully understand it as I've never heard anyone make a noise like meh in real life, but it feels sneery and dismissive to me.

I use it in real life but it's more of a closed mouth "eh" or "mmm", it's just a display of indifference.

I didn't realize "Are you on glue" was a joke. It's a pretty common saying around here.

I do notice MN likes to use the work "piss" alot
Piss off, boiling piss, getting pissed, pissed off, taking the piss, etc... Seems like a versatile word here that can be squeezed in for any occasion.

I just type how I talk in real life.

Thank god this is where all the sane people are!!

"Are you on glue?" is one of the lamest put downs I've ever read, its so school playground and it wasnt funny when I first read it on that bridezilla thread either!

And all other sayings (stabby, boils my piss, naice etc) are so often repeated it makes me think of minions following the "cool" gang who use an expression and everyone suddenly has to repeat it in an effort to fit in.

Did I mean to be so rude?? Yes. Yes I absolutely did.

Yeah it was being advertised on the right hand side of the page yesterday...a t.shirt with "Did you mean to be so rude" on the front.

The price was about £15 if I remember rightly

Mind you, if it had "'Of course I bloody did, you dim-witted arsewipe. Now fuck off.'" written on the back, it would be worth every penny!
I want THAT tshirt.

I loathe the phrase 'boils my piss'. Makes me want to clench and press my upper thighs together, very tightly.

Agree with everyone so far.

Rather like 'arf' though. Reads like a gentle snort of mirth and one I do often when MN'ing.

Put me down for a vigilante t-shirt

I use meh, got it from ds1, I like it!

I've used the glue comment once in a post, yesterday actually, I thought it was funny < sniggers> haven't seen it often to be honest.

I'll get me coat < exits ----->

I loathe did you mean to be so rude, it's so bloody useless as a retort.

My 15 year old dd actually says "meh"

"no is a complete sentence" sends me demented

I really dislike 'rip him/her a new one'. It's so unnecessarily graphic and violent.

Thankfully have never heard anyone say it in real life. It just makes me think of the poster as having anger problems when I read it on here.

I hate ROAR. You hear it less now, which is good as I always imagined it as being typed by a famous five type woman in bunches and dungarees and a smug face

I like "Are you on glue?" But it's not an MN-ism, I use it quite a lot (and "Are you on coke?"). Think it was a result of Compulsory Drugs Testing that I started using it.

I like "Meh" too, it's so wonderfully dismissive. My Jewish Aunt used to use it a lot so I picked that one up from her. I remember picking DSD up for saying "Whatever" (because I hated it) and her telling me it was no different to "Meh" so if she was stopping I had to too.

I don't like "sick in my mouth" or "pee in my pants" though.

grabs popcorn - just fuck off. I do rather like stabby though.

It can't be overused - I have never seen it. It seems a pretty lame 'put down' by MN standards!

Don't mind that one it the 'cats bum face' I can't stand.
