Well, not the posters themselves, but it really irritates me.

It's like we have to tip-toe around that particular poster lest they explode in a volcano of self-righteous fury.

Ooh don't even get me started on posters who boil my piss! Grin

SwedishEdith · 15/07/2015 22:44

Hate "Talk me down"

I can't stand those who police MN and tell posters they've posted in the wrong topic. Or those who post with a teensy mistake and then correct that mistake in another post. And don't get me started on those who correct others Wink

Only1scoop · 15/07/2015 22:46

Also starting to hate the odd ....'anywho' slipped in for effect Confused

I hate anyone who mentions penis beaker. And ironic posters, they really boil my itching piss gums.

travertine · 15/07/2015 22:55

Or is it teeth? Anyhoo I am just a lurking first time poster so be gentle and don't flame me.

Off for a wee and re fill my wine glass. Yes that's right! Wine on a Wednesday! I am a binge drinker.

Only1scoop · 15/07/2015 22:56

'Anyhoo' sorry Confused

Also dislike posts that begin....

'So....I was'....

bolleauxnouveau · 15/07/2015 23:02

yabu. I love everybody here except the people who disagree with me, I can't stand them.

SchnooSchnoo · 15/07/2015 23:46

I irrationally hate 'Fast-forward to...' See it all the time on here. And I hate hate hate 'makes my teeth itch!'.

Mrsmorton · 15/07/2015 23:54

I hate it when people say "Oh and I..." Because it's always some attention seeking bollocks. Like "oh and the senior consultant said..."
"Oh and dh has a PhD..."

Fuck off with your "oh"s. Like the entire point of your post wasn't attention seeking or stealth boasting.

Bah.

Topseyt · 16/07/2015 00:36

Oh blimey, just don't get me started..... !!!

wowfudge · 16/07/2015 01:02

I particularly dislike 'meh' - so often used to be really rudely dismissive of something a pp has posted.

Fabulous travertine, I might start using that one Grin

NewFlipFlops · 16/07/2015 08:38

Schnoo, I thought I was the only one who hated fast forward to. I wish that expression would die.

Lancelottie · 16/07/2015 08:46

Long story followed by 'queue me telling her where to go/falling over the Lego/having a heart attack...'

It's cue, not queue. And it still sounds naff even if you spell it properly.

ZaZathecat · 16/07/2015 08:59

You lot are making me laugh!

However I am NOT snorting coffee through my nose!

Belleview · 16/07/2015 09:07

I'm snorting coffee through my nose while my piss is boiling. Oh, and my teeth are itching. Don't get me started on my gums!

RachelRagged · 16/07/2015 09:07

anyhoo ? lolll Not come across that but I think it would grate reading that too often

RachelRagged · 16/07/2015 09:08

ZaZathecat · 16/07/2015 09:09

Have my very first.... Nah, I'm gonna save it for later.

sebsmummy1 · 16/07/2015 09:13

I'm chuckling here (not pissing myself laughing natch). Now natch really fucks me off!! I think it's short for 'naturally' but I might be wrong.

Can't stand 'AIBU ....... in thinking or to think'.... I see it all the time and find it really bloody irritating.

basgetti · 16/07/2015 09:14

Wow. Just wow. Anyone who posts this sounds like a twat.
