'I work hard and I play hard'
Oh sod off you arse.

EthelMerman · 03/08/2017 21:48

Yes to many of these. Have a special dislike of little man and babas.

@Housewife2010 I hate them too Eldest DS knows I dislike the words meaty, moist and gusset. You don't see them on FB often but DS loves to use them to annoy.

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 03/08/2017 21:52

chatham yes! Change her/his bum. Nappy/diaper is for not bum ffs AND you've mentioned one of my most hated...
I love you to the moon and back ,see also
I love you lots like fucking Jelly Tots . No! Just no! Stop it.

BabychamSocialist · 03/08/2017 22:00

"Methinks" is the worst!

Oh, we're doing Shakespeare, are we? Because methinks thou art the son and heir of a mongrel bitch.

That's what I want to say to them anyway.

EmmaJR1 · 03/08/2017 22:11

@Brahms3rdracket what on earth is a "crotch supper"???

EmmaJR1 · 03/08/2017 22:17

People who can't be arsed to spell things correctly in order to save a couple of letters... Gawjus is my most hated example. Also the current "fashion" of saying you've "done" things rather than you did them. As in I done a 3 point turn...

MaisyPops · 03/08/2017 22:19

I love you lots likeJelly Tots
Do people actually say shite like this?
That's twee as hell. I'm going to say it to DH at some point to annoy him Grin
It sounds like some kind of playground rhyme.

itsmehi · 03/08/2017 22:24

Wtf did boob to sleep become a thing?! How and when would you use this phrase?

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 03/08/2017 22:31

Emma I share the same hatred about Gawjus and yes sadly maisy they do. I have a fiend friend that posts shit like that and the arms of her children being precious jewels around her neck and famalam once even famalamadingdong god help me

Sleepthief84 · 03/08/2017 22:42

I know someone who doesn't know how to use hashtags properly and so just puts one in front of every word:
#Best#Day#Ever#Mummys#Prince#Jonny#is#a#handsome#Little#Man

Argh!

Also when posting a picture a particular person I know ALWAYS writes:

"This one though 💕"

This one though? This one though what?

Fuck. Off!

FrogsSitonLogs · 03/08/2017 22:52

Wtf did boob to sleep become a thing?! How and when would you use this phrase?

I've been boobing the baby all day
I boobed baby to sleep
I'm just sitting here boobing baby
Baby is being a bit clingy so will want to boob all day.

And so on. Because you can't just say feeding or fed. Hmm

livefrommysofa · 03/08/2017 22:54

I rage at;
"This one though"
#squad goals

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 03/08/2017 22:55

'You guys...' anywhere, but especially as in, 'Are you guys ready to order?', when addressed to a largely female party of grandparent age.

thegamblersmrs · 03/08/2017 22:58

lol - this was used by a manager in a professional email today. Just no.

Lolz!

'Just for the bantz'

All my hunnies.

Camomila · 03/08/2017 23:05

'Action that' at work
'This one' on social media

'Picky bits' I find annoying but I say it sometimes as it's an easy way of describing what we're eating and like a PP said it's not fancy enough to be called tapas!

I do say boobing though. I think it's cute Grin
My toddler has just learnt to say 'booboo!' while yanking down my top so I'm pretty much a walking stereotype at this point.

kennypppppppp · 03/08/2017 23:11

I bloody hate "thank you all for my birthday presents/cards/etc. Love you all"

How can you POSSIBLY love everyone you're friends with on Facebook? (Which is where I see this cheesy thing regularly. Plus it's only when I see the cheesy thing that I remember to text the birthday person. And I have't remembered to send a card. Let alone get a bloody present).

It so grills my cheese (which is probably also an extremely annoying phrase)

Sofarsogoody · 03/08/2017 23:13

This thread is brilliant Grin Hate bloody hashtags and also when people type asterisk either side of words like I can't bloody read #getitwithoutthepatronisingemphasis
Hate nom nom - vile
Picky bits - random meal with crisps ( quite like!)

greyfriarskitty · 03/08/2017 23:15

Oh I have found my people.

Someone I know posts anecdotes about her children on FB followed by the hashtag #raising[childsname].

Ffs.

DeathStarCantina · 03/08/2017 23:27

Just one word..
' yous'.

Fluffypinkpyjamas · 03/08/2017 23:28

Another one is referring to child's age in months or weeks when they are far too old for that shit. How old is he/she ? Oh bubs is 48 months old. I have a relative who does it. #36monthsold

mydogmymate · 03/08/2017 23:42

That annoys me too, she's 2 or 3 ffs!

I have always been a big supporter of Jeremy Corbyn, but when I saw his insta

Livnatmum · 03/08/2017 23:47

Crusty bread, it infers that they can afford proper bread rather than a 36p loaf from Lidl,

LazySusan11 · 03/08/2017 23:50

Teeth itch - how can something make your teeth itch?

Muchly, as in 'Ta muchly' fuck off
