Phrases/words you can't stand on MN

[cathf]

Maybe it's just me, but I'll kick off with:
Booby monster (or any kind of 'monster')
Figetbum (not seen this often, but it is so horrific I can't forget it)
Snuggly cuddles (see also milky cuddles,and sleepy cuddles or snuggles)
Newborn, used as a noun, not an adjective - as in my newborn, not my newborn baby.
I'm sure I will think of some more!

OH and DH make me cringe. Even more So when people post this on social media e.g. on facebook.

The idea that a spa day or a cup of hot sweet tea will fix absolutely anything

Hot sweet tea is disgusting.

I don't understand what ducks in a row means. Can someone please explain?

Fake its both 😂 Me complaining and frequently seen here 🤣

Lol

Big girl panties

Just having some fun. What can we say?

The word "vile", really over used on here.
That little face thing with the raised eyebrow.
The phrase "call it/them out". Not just on here, it makes me think of 8 year olds arguing.
"Nope/yep/yip", at the start of a sentence.

For any emotional issue involving someone else: "You need to sit down with them and have a heart to heart".

Why does it have to involve sitting down? I can have a perfectly good conversation standing up. Ok I know it's a turn of phrase but it sounds so 1970s Jackie magazine.

Also, I don't want to have a heart to heart with my colleague or whoever. My heart ain't going anywhere near the twonk who upset me.

Dunno what has been said as I haven't read the full thread.

I hate

NAICE.

It really boils my piss.

"Squishy newborn snuggles" makes me feel sick

'Big girl pants' annoys me too.

And 'give your head a wobble!' That makes me WTF does it even MEAN? It sounds horrible!

norkage

Even worse than norks

I quite like meh

"Milky cuddles" is dreadful.

"You do realise..." - AAAAAAAGH.

Unnecessary drip-feeding. I mean, I'm not expecting everyone to summarise every aspect of their life in each OP but "I'm so tired cos my husband doesn't help with childcare"/"Leave the bastard"/"Yeah but he is in a coma though innit "...that kind of thing is irritating.

I'd be telling them to .... instead of I'd tell them to ....

Don't do the Pick me dance - guess this is a special Mumsnet dance.

It really boils my piss
Pearl clutching
No one batted an eye lid
D as in the acronym for "dear"
Thrown under a bus

Trump.
Especially when it's on a thread with a HILARIOUSLY CLEVER title.
Fuck off to politics.

Hun.

@cathf

I think people are living a fantasy life on MN sometimes, when they are confident, striding and take no shit from anyone.
In real life, they are actually nothing like that

^This.

Which is why a response to all marital disagreements, no matter how minor, is LTB. Granted, it’s deserved sometimes but where OP presents a situation where a conversation with the DH in question would be the first port of call, the LTB will get called quicker than “Have you spoken to him about it?”

How have I been on here 6 years and never seen 'milky cuddles'? Not that I am complaining. Yuk.

My worst isn't specifically a MN thing but I see it here all the time on any thread about Donald Trump.

It's willy waving. Ugh. it brings awful images to my head of massive penises swaying about.
