'Sarnie' is the worst word in the world.

[SugarnetMum]

Makes me cringe anytime I see it on here aaaaagh.

Only me?

"Chillax" is banned in my house.

Along with "bang on trend" (ok, that's a phrase, not a word, but I still hate it).

Also picky bits.

People who refer to money as 'pennies' DH.

These are a bit left feild...

"Perfectly fine" - usually used when person saying it is being a pompous/patronising arse (also "perfectly acceptable")

"Scantily clad" - favourite of tabloids

"Stepping out" - also favourite of tabloids and as far as I can tell just means "being somewhere"

"Tips the scales" - ditto, must stop reading tabloids

Also hate "veg" for some reason.

I think I have the wrong idea about this thread. I suggested words based on the actual sound going through me, not disliking them for what they mean or who says them. I wouldn't want anyone to stop using the words, that would be odd. backing slowly out of the thread ...

Also things like:
Follow the instructions on pack
Come and visit us in branch/store

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I read on here yesterday "sambo" for sandwich That word has VERY different connotations for me old gimmer

dimsie is MIL from Essex? It's what all the market sellers call them

Meal
Packet of crisp
Moist
We are pregnant
Drinky poo
The hubby / the wife

All horrible!

"helping yourself" also makes me cringe.

For food/drink related I was going to say cuppa but am horrified by angielou's date who said 'potta'

Another vote for "nom nom nom" here!!

Also (sorry I've got a lot of word rage) took me a while to come to terms with the fact DP who is nearly 50 calls everything "lush".

Holibobs/holibags
Nom noms
Also hate "super", impossible to use it without sounding smug or patronising
The word "pump" to mean breaking wind. Actually I also hate 'breaking wind' and 'fart'. There is no good word for that.
Feeling 'poorly'.

Cannot cope with adults saying tummy so many people say it, so I accept I am being unreasonable.

Zara my mum God rest her soul used to say "funny tummy" for having the shits. Drove me mad.

Most of these don't disturb me further than a simultaneous closed-eyes, deep intake of breath and temple massage, but the one that puts me in a red rage is "feels".

As in: "Just watching The Notebook for the eighth time and it's giving me ALL THE FEELS."

God! if that's all yo have to worry about !!

Really intolerant people on this thread and so up their own arses that they can't enjoy the difference in people, or the history of how the regions have evolved and alongside, so did the language.

The good thing is that you might all keep out of Liverpool, in case you combust.

""Xmas. If you can't be bothered to type Christmas perhaps you shouldn't be celebrating it.""

I used to hate it, but then looked up why it was used. We've taken on everything German/Danish etc at Christmas, so why not throw in a bit of Greek.

I really love the diversity of life and people, though.

No, slit is the worst word in the world. So cringy and makes my mouth feel dirty and slimy when I say it.

Orgasmic. Just makes me imagine the person who said it having an orgasm. Don't want to. Also hate adults saying tummy, makes me feel slightly violent. And wee instead of pee...abominable.

Ursula do you live in the north west? i do and i have butties,chippy teas and brews.

Spag Bol
Yorkie Puds
Choc Bix

And my most unfavourite "Veggie" as in "Are you a veggie" (not short for vegetable)

My DMum says " Urbs" (herbs) and "Zorbet" (sorbet) ... I grimmace

Quite like "leccy" though

PicardsComeOver - if it's a thread about words where the sound goes through you my ultimate pet hate word is 'cheese'. It's is disgusting! Whoever coined that word when English language was invented ought to be ashamed of themselves. Ch-eeeee-se!! 🤢 Sick freak!

If it words that are just disgusting to use and are an abomination of the English language, then for the love of all that is Holy, 'sarnie' is up there. I have only ever heard the word sarnie used on MN. Same with picky bits. If anyone I knew used them in real life they would suffer my wrath

Comb* not come
