To hate the following phrases...

[MrsWinnibago]

Hacked off
Stumped
"I'll tear you a new one" (this one is particularly disgusting imo)

I read them FAR too often on MN.

The only ones I've seen are hacked off where the person posting has been a bit angry and stumped where they don't know something, as in "I was stumped". I don't find either of them to be disgusting TBH.

I've never seen "I'll tear you a new one" on here. Maybe I'm hanging out in the wrong section :o

Hacked off is irritating, I grant you. Just use the word pissed. It's not that bad.

I can't see the problem with the word stumped.

Ill tear you a new one isn't a particularly nice phrase, but it is delightfully descriptive in the way that only truly crass phrases can be. I'd let that one stay.

Can we add...my bad...to that please...it's especially cringeworthy when it's said not only by anyone over 18 but by adults in a work setting!

I think stump is such an ugly word. And hacked off makes NO sense.

"I'd tear him a new one" crops up loads on AIBU.

"Dh has eaten my chocolate"

"Tear him a new one"

What does i'ii year you a new one actually mean?

Stumped and hacked off? Fairly innocuous I would say for mumsnet.

Body I've always assumed it meant a new arsehole.

Tear sorry!

I know stumped is innocuous but it MAKES NO SENSE!

I'm sure it's a cricketing term.

Oh right. Then agree on that one. Yeuk!

Yes stumped is probably a cricket term. Must google where hacked off came from now. Op I was going to sleep!

ITYAKO - awful. And brings horrible meaning to this: too....

As you can see, I can't even bring myself to write it, it's so horrible - I think the acronym is quite elegant, though...

A really irritating phrase? "I don't have that privilege."

on here I can't bear that sarcastic 'non?'

also heard 'my bad' in a work setting - awful

fuck off and then fuck off some more

but I have no problem with stumped or hacked off.

not keen on 'pissed' as in angry as that sounds all American.

"So..."

Absolutely agree with 'my bad' I can't stand it!

Pissed is drunk, surely

"Stumped" is a cricket word - I agree it's got a horrible sounds though.

I really, really hate "Pull your finger out". I always mentally add "of your arsehole" to the end of the phrase... No idea if the context is actually meant to be that crude, but that's how I receive it.

"She's been wiping his backside for the last fifteen years" when talking about somebody doing far too much for someone who should be independent. Ew. It's grim.

Filly Oh GOD yes! I'm sure most people don't think of it in that way but that's what it means isn't it?

"ITYAKO - awful."

What does that mean? It seems, judging by the other letters, to be a variant of "I'll tear you a new one" but I'm ....erm.....stumped

IMO there's nothing more annoying than the new fashion of beginning sentences, or answers to straightforward questions, with "So......"

Glad it's not just me, MrsW... I can't think what you'd be pulling your finger out of that isn't a bodily orifice of some sort. Unless you're Little Jack Horner.

ITYAKO - I'd tear you a knowledgeable one? I'd tear you a knavish one?

What does the K stand for? I'm stumped too (but not hacked off )

"Bear with me" meaning "I am going to keep you waiting". It's used to make you feel that their piss- poor service and inadequate staffing is somehow our problem.

"Bear with me" meaning "I am going to keep you waiting".

Very perceptive of you Andrew . In my call centre days it was used a LOT as a not very polite alternative to 'please shut the fuck up and stop asking new questions while I try to find out the answer, or I'll put you on hold and you know how our hold music has you climbing the walls!!'

Hacked off is normal for me (the phrase not the condition). Pissed = drunk and pissed off is what I would have said in my teens, not now.

A MN phrase that hacks me off is "boils my piss" eurghh. I have never heard this IRL.

I always say bear with me in Miranda lady voice or else bear with me, there's a bear with me (I don't remember which show that came from).

Flipflops7,
Boils my piss may be a variation on "makes my piss fizz" - DP is fond of this. As an intensifier he prefers "makes my shit itch", he's got a colourful turn of phrase!
