To ask you for your list of words that you hate?

[MrsOverTheRoad]

I know it's been done to death but I need to get this out

Scrumptious.

Fuck that word. Just fuck it.

It's a stupid, self indulgent sort of word.

"Oh isn't he SCRUMPTIOUS!"

It's such a childish word somehow. So Mary Poppins.

Also

Meal

Fuddle
Pussy
Disrespecting ( you don't hear this much now that rikki lake isn't on the telly anymore but you used to hear 'Are you disrespecting me?' A lot. It's not a word)

I love this thread. I agree with almost everyone, but especially the one who hates train station.

Oh and yum.

"We had picky bits for tea. They were yum."

Sounds like you were eating scabs you infantile wazzock.

Do people hate train station because they think only 'railway station' will do and anything else is a frightful Americanism?

I don't like " invite" used as a noun. It should be "invitations"

Forgot

"Poop"

It's "poo" you wanker....

When someone constantly calls other people "guys"

Some words on here I've never even heard of - but they sound ridiculous.

I have never heard the word 'sanpro' is that for sanitary products?
Does a certain part of the country say it. I.e. Is it a colloquialism?

Sanpro is pretty common I think.

I dislike all those horrible abbreviated things, contrivances and baby speak type words.

I did consider removing my own dear son from my will after he arrived for a visit and declined dinner because he'd had a "Maccy D's" en route. Shudder.

I abhor all the MN abbreviations for family members such as DH, DSis, DM etc. Such middle class tweeness

Meal.
Infested/Infestation
Cluster.
Fester.
Cyst.
Fetus.
Pustule.

SanPro
Twee

Hate them both. Never heard/seen either of them before NM!

Dream feed.

I also HATE it when people say 'being as' instead of 'seeing as'
Me: can I have a biscuit please?
People: being as you asked so nicely.

I think it is technically correct as well but I still really hate it.

Also hate it when people say 'do you want' instead of 'would you like' when talking to a client or someone you're supposed to be polite to.
"Dya want a bag" sounds awful "would you like a bag" sounds much better.
I am strange by the way.

An ex bf's mother used to call her car (which was a big fancy Range Rover) 'the vehicle'
Like wtf?

Also despise management / office speak when people clearly use these phrases to cover up shit or make them look like they know what they are talking about:
Let's take this off line
We can move this forward
We got this
Blue sky.......
Let's bring this back to basics
Let's park this for now
Low hanging fruit
Let's touch base
Get your house in order
Run it up the flagpole

I cringe every time I hear shit like this in work. You can almost hear my eyes roll... literally makes me want to stab the person in the eye with a fork!

Big
Little

As they are both overused.

I did consider removing my own dear son from my will after he arrived for a visit and declined dinner because he'd had a "Maccy D's" en route. Shudder.

Haha!!

tickety you really need to start a completely separate thread for all the management bollocks speak! There is too much of it!

'I'll tell you for why' No, just fucking tell me before I kick you in the chuff!

My GP has an automated system that offers to 'arrive' me.

I also hate ect instead of etc, alot instead of a lot, and peng.

Mine are....
Hun
Luggage
Refreshments....whats the point...just ask people if they want a drink !!!
And one from here which makes my skin crawl...'getting your ducks in a row '.....aaaarrgghhh !!!

Any man introducing his wife as "The Wife" or referring to her as such can fuck right off.

Ethel
Isn't it fucking enraging!!! I may be jailed for murder someday soon!

Gushing.

It makes me feel queasy.
