To think this is the most annoying combination of words in the world?

[tessiebear4]

"Feeling blessed".

I try to use LOL ironically in my text messages as I find it funny but I don't think the irony comes across LOL!

Dislike the use of: Mummy as is in "full time mummy" or "hoping to get to know other mummy's in the same situation" etc

Also, baba/babs to refer to a baby " aww but when your baba arrives you'll know what I mean" etc.

"Nom" is just cringe too!

Luckily I left FB around the time it appears pp's phrases/words became ubiquitous.

The Edinburgh Gin company do a Rhubard Gin, it's lovely! I usually have it on a night out with ginger ale
My time spent faffing around on here has not been wasted. This is possibly the most important information I have ever found on the internet.
As for annoying words, "don't take this the wrong way, but..." is a group of words which never need to appear together. Also wine o'clock, gin o'clock or anything o'clock unless it's an actual time.

Can't stand 'Hun' being used ANYWHERE except in the correct German context.
And along with the 'literally wetting myself' I HATE it when people say 'a little bit of sick just came up' (or similar)

Moma Bear/Tiger Mom
Especially when used as follows:

'Went into full on Moma Bear/Tiger Mom mode to protect my littlies'

Anyone who uses that or any of the other childish phrases on this thread should not be allowed within a million miles of any children let alone have any of their own.

LittleWingSoul agree with the baba/babs!

I follow a lady on social media who refers to her DD as 'bub' or 'bubs'- I can't stand it!

oh oh, I just thought of another, "Mummy friends"

Either they are your friends or they aren't or are they just people you hang out with because they had a baby too...?

I've said this so often, and apologies if it's already been said on here, but 'reaching out'. I recently received a letter that said they were 'reaching out' to me by post as they'd tried and failed to 'reach out' to me via email - aaarrgh! You are not 'reaching out', you are 'writing to me FFS! (Mithering me more like). I reached out and put said letter in the bin.....

Controversially I prefer 'tummy' to an incorrect use of 'stomach'. I worked with a woman who used to say she got horrible stomach ache at her 'time of the month' (which is another one, btw) and would be rubbing her lower back the whole time - where the fuck do you think your stomach is?

Calm down

thethoughtfox LOL!

So do I need to stop referring to 17 yr old DS as my lil' prince then?
Noooooo!
That's our holibobs ruined then...
Which reminds me how much I hate Crimbo for Christmas - I worked with a bloke who said that!

Yummy mummy

nom, nom, nom

just fuck right off

Love all these. ALL of them. ALL OF THEEMMM!!!

#feelingbrianblessed

Ooh... there are so many. So very many. Currently:

Side rather than side dish
Slaw instead of coleslaw
Artisan ( foodstuff)
Craft ( alcoholic drink)
Can I get!?
She was sat
Works party ( never office party, oddly even though that is what it is)
Going 'on' a night out
At mine, yours etc, when people mean their house
Work colleague
Personal belongings
Train station. No! railway station!
So I turned round and said...

Dh annoys me by saying he's going to jump in the shower, what, you're going stand there in the shower and jump up and down?
Or take a shower, where are you taking it to? 😡

I'd never heard of boobing to sleep until I read a thread on here about a hen party

Stupid phrase

The person who posted about a"Crotch supper" WTF is that?!

Pushing the envelope - why and where? How hard?

Doom, I had an ex who tried to call me prinny. With proo - pra after it, making it prinny-proo-pra.

Do people hate supper when it's used to mean the main evening meal? I would say supper for something later on at night, either a while after dinner or instead of if lunch was huge or late. I actually love supper - it reminds me of visiting my family for the weekend. I'd get the train after work and get in really late and have supper with them.

Anatidae

I feel your work pain.
In June, in our serious, 'advertise our work to the world glossy brochure', the 10 year old in charge of the organisation's marketing budget, decided it was OK to put
'Give us a bell' instead of telephone us or similar.
There was almost a riot when we saw it at proof reading stage.

Oh and if the doctor's receptionist calls Flower one more time, I swear I will run her through with a pair of pinking shears

I hate those slogans on shabby shit placards (or, even worse, cushions) that say trite rubbish about "dancing in the rain", "making memories (especially if one is sourly demanded to "excuse the mess").

I also hate "holibobs", "feeling blessed" and "what's not to like?" - the holy trinity of cuntage.

The one I hate the most is calling a DD or DS ...my Baby Girl or my Baby Boy as in "my Baby Girl is 18 today" ....or any other age that is clearly not newborn!

Also "to be honest" why? aren't you being honest any other time. Grrr.

#mysidechick Why would she describe her daughter as her sidechick? A sidechick is American for "woman I'm cheating on my girlfriend with".

My side chick?! Isn't that a term that mean mistress?

YES to all of these. Also: forward planning (how else would you plan?) and "ping", as in I'll ping you an email.

Use of "myself" when people assume incorrectly that it sounds better than "me".

Invite as a noun (already mentioned) really makes me grit my teeth.

To "hate on" someone. My teenager tried to justify this one. I was not convinced.

Irregardless. Argh!!

Preggers. Ditto.

Sorry, not sorry. Good grief!
