I know I probably am but...

[dontpokethebear]

I hate the abbreviation 'lil'. Eg 'I love my lil' girl'.
It gives me the rage. For me it is in the same box as 'hun', 'hubby' and 'bubs'.
It's creeping with alarming frequency onto my FB feed.

I am fully prepared to be told IABU, but I don't care

Lush is a West Country thing.

A friend called me bubs last time I went round there. I nearly crawled out my skin. I actually haven't seen her since!

MIL referring to our unborn child - soooo excited and can't wait to have a cuddle with babba boo. rage.

babba boo

Oh sweet jesus

I too have come to defend 'lush'.
It's a very common West Country word generally used with the word 'gurt'.

I may have been guilty of an occasional 'luff'

fcuk I wonder if we know the same person.... I feel so embarrassed when she comments on anything that I post. I'm not a complete snob i am really

Slightly different, but when my first dc my mum used to refer to him as 'such a precious cargo'

I KNOW this is regional, but also 'liccle', "boccle", "hospical". Just kill me.

Ur all well jel!

My much younger sister is forever writing of Facebook that she is doing things wid other people.
I have to sit on my hands to stop myself correcting her every time

'This food though'

'These boots though'

'This song though'

And also 'bae'

'Off out with my bae. Makeup on fleek. #thosebrowsthough' Said by a 30 year old on my Facebook

#goals
#squad

HATE lil so YANBU on that.

For regional words YABU so lush and hospical can stay.

Hate wiv too.

Chin chin gets on my nerves too as it's usually accompanying the wine o'clock phrase🙄

Too many toos, that's annoying

desolate but is it lush gurt or gurt lush? (No idea what gurt means, sorry).
Also baffled by bae.

Chin chin is ok if you're Italian. (Although they spell it cin cin, I think. CF ciao.)

Oh no! I've come to defend 'lush' too (West Country) and also Baba Boo. That's what I call my middle child!

Chinchin means dick/cock/penis in Japanese so I agree Tarty, fine if you're Italian and spelling it correctly, otherwise it's still on my grr list

"out wiv ma gawjuss bbe 2nyte #meanmyman paint dis town red" 😑

where's the vomit emoji when you need it?

three of my good friends, educated, nice and intelligent love using hun xxx and colourful emojis so I'm trying to keep my judgy pants in the drawer.
They can spell though.

Saw 'iccul' on a Facebook page recently, as in 'August babies are so iccul when they start school' - urgh.

Nowhere near as vomit inducing as many of the expressions already mentioned but I get the rage at 'posh chocs'

Always used as a suggestion on the 'all the family are away so I've got the house to myself tonight, whatever shall I do to amuse myself? ' threads.

Usually found in conjunction with have a takeaway, then a long bath with candles, then watch a weepy/girly film with a box of posh chocs.

I don't like the shortening of some words. "Pressie" for present. If you need a shorter word, try "gift." "Rellie" for relative. If you need a shorter word, "kin" works. I saw a poster use "stinge," instead of stingy. That one isn't even shorter written down. "Comfy" and "uncomfy," also grate.

They're all just so saccharine.

desolate but is it lush gurt or gurt lush? (No idea what gurt means, sorry).

Gurt lush. Gurt means big or large but you use is slightly differently. So you would say 'gurt big house' for a very large house but you would say 'gurt house' for a fairly large house.
It can also be used with the word 'sconsin' which is said of an animal or person that big and solid. For example 'look at yon bull. 'ims a sconsin gurt bugger in im'

Aholic endings annoy me, shopaholic, chocoholic etc. I have a friend who sends hash tags in normal messages, she'll tell a story then put #sorrynotsorry or #awkward at the end. I totes luff her though so it's all gravy

I do use the word kin as a shortening for... kin ell
