To ask , what is your least favourite word/phase?

[SteveAs]

I will start

Beast from the east- just cringe

'Sourcing' things - no, you bought it from ASDA, you didn't 'source' it (WTF does that even mean?)

My bad - American ex said this a lot years before it caught on here. ARGH!

On accident - see above

'Gi' o'er' or however it's spelled - pronounced GII - ORRRR!!! loudly in thick Yorkshire accent. Meaning = Please stop what you are doing at once ('give over', I assume)

‘Curating your space’.

Aka arranging shit in your house.

Being your best self induces rage in me too.

‘Nom’
Actually makes me feel a little bit sick.

Hubby

‘Love the bones of’ him/her/them - HATE it!!

‘Rant over’.

‘this’

‘And breathe’ (particularly irritating when they leave the ‘e’ off the end).

‘Boils my piss’ and ‘makes my teeth itch’ are hideous.

Queenoftheblitz " it's not tea it's dinner" in Yorkshire is definitely tea 😁 I've tried saying dinner but it just sounds fake around here

Not gonna lie - why would you?
Can I get (skinny latte, etc) no you may have, you can't physically get - you don't work here
I'm loving those shoes - we don't need a running commentary, I love will suffice.

Peeps - grrrr

Passed/passed away. What is wrong with 'died'? Anyone would think it's on a par with the c word.

Not a problem! (Grumpy old hag alert). Non stop and very loud in Oz, from waiters after we'd said thank you for anything. I should hope it's not a problem, since it is actually your job to bring our food/drink.

Ditto to outside OF, holibobs, hubby, hubs, hun

You guys - to mixed or all-female groups.

REsearch, instead of reSEARCH. More grrrrrr.

He/she turned round and said...Hate it (unless they are talking about someone who is actually dancing and talking at the same time).

Cum
Sat (as in sat here)
Myself and David (you mean David and I)

God I have loads!

People use literally all the time now and incorrectly.

The “school run” why can’t you just say I’m going to collect the children from school?

“Over-exaggerate” poor use of English and doesn’t make sense.

Guts as in stomach - people saying "I have bad guts" just makes me cringe. Belly is almost as bad - only acceptable if you're talking about a cut of meat!

People talking about "popping out" to the shops.

Oh and people saying/writing myself instead of me and yourself instead of you

Moreish....as in "That cake is very moreish..."

Oh yes, ‘moreish’ repulses me.

Boob as a verb. ‘I boobed him to sleep’ ugh

TERF

Mine is people who use 'myself' and 'yourself' instead of 'you' and 'me' or 'I'

It's usually young people who fancy themselves as 'business people' or who think it sounds professional.

I spoke to yourself
My partner and myself are planning a holiday
That was myself that dealt with that

IT'S GRAMMATICALLY INCORRECT and makes you sound like an Apprentice candidate who is using 20 words to say precisely nothing of any use!

brekkie
cuppa
getting a munch. when talking about eating food.
also my fil used to say to me he will come when its ripe... when i was due my baby boy that used to strike a nerve in my head.

I hate it when people say "What?" with an exaggerated high-pitched voice: "WHOOOOAAAAT????"

Pamphlet

Boozy
Belly
"Everything is meant to be"....no it's bloody not!
Gutted
Top Banana
Muppet as an insult

‘No pressure then’ as said endlessly on Masterchef etc
