People saying expresso

This is irritating but I think it’s partially a generational thing. It was the lingo in the 60s apparently.

My father who is in his mid 70s and a highly respected academic, whose main study field is coffee growing, still calls it an EXpresso.

I love leggings under dresses 😊

SecretSantaaaaaa · 18/06/2018 15:39

to and too

Person on Facebook: "Me and the Mrs went too the cinema"

I have zero time for people who don't know how to use the correct "too/to"

@RoseWhiteTips I saw a post on Facebook yesterday asking if anyone had any Chester Draws for sale. It creased me!

On the other hand I love leggings under dresses (cos I have awful white legs and chub rub), fake nails and currently have one nail different (sorry!!)

It would be boring as hell if we all liked the same things anyway Grin

See through leggings worn as trousers

I once saw a teen wearing pink knickers with cherries on. Was right behind her and her friend, and said something. Her red face was a picture 😁

Claws and wars rhyme draws sounds the same as drawers. It's looks weird now I've typed it out! I'm northern living in south I'm confusedConfused

Zaphodsotherhead · 18/06/2018 16:26

Oh and re 'sumfink' and variations thereof..

the use of 'sunnat'. Is your tongue tired? Is pronouncing the word 'something' too much for you? Then 'sunnat' is your friend.

Chester draws

Gawjuss

Baby on board stickers when your child is not in the car

Vague Facebook status' promoting "R U OK HUN" and then the answer of "I'll PM you". If you want to reference your dirty laundry on Facebook be prepared to share it with everyone...

MLM schemes on Facebook who are secretive about the price. If anyone enquires about an item the response is always "I'll PM you"...what is being hidden? Why is there no straight answer? Is the price that outrageous?

non Spanish people saying choreetho

Why wouldn't you say something correctly though? Cafe for example - I'm not going to refuse to say caffay and say cayf instead because I'm not French!

“Don’t hit your brother - he’s smaller than you” - said while rhythmically hitting child on head. In Ikea. DH had to physically lead me away & that only really worked because I had toddler dd with me.

people who pronounce jalapeño as Jalapeeno. it's halapenyo.

Saying sexist/racist/disablist things and then saying "it's only banter"

Ski40 · 18/06/2018 18:49

Everything about the summer: sweat, flies, tacky colourful clothes, people with manky feet in flip flops or sandals, long evenings (hyper kids), pools (yuk yuk yuk!!), stuffy sleepless nights, headaches caused by bright sunlight, hideous parched lawns, hayfever, I could go on, by the middle of June I'm sick of it all.
"I should of"
Instagram speech like bae or woke. Please..
People scoffing and slurping sloppy cereal. Makes me feel sick.
Long scruffy filthy beards. Don't mind a well cut goatie on the right face though.
Duckfaces and caterpillar eyebrows. Just no.
"Maccy D"... Gives me the rage, not sure why.

People who advertise their car with things like '1999 Renow for sale'
or 'Pergeuot'.

It's written on the back of the fucking car, just go out and look!

My father used to say that he was so good natured he could forgive anyone anything; but if they said "woz yer" they had had it as far as he was concerned.....

BigFatGoalie · 18/06/2018 20:05

Sure it’s been said but people who don’t tell now the difference between “loose” and “lose”.

“I want to loose weight.”

ARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!
