'I'm pissed'

[MarthasGinYard]

Aibu that this little saying that's crept in and dropped its 'off' gives me a mini rage

'Aibu to be pissed at dp'....

'I'm so pissed with Mil'....

'So pissed that dc won't eat their greens'....

It's OFF

Ducks as predicts will now get told to do so

It's an Americanism.

We say 'pissed off'.

YANBU.

It’s crept in From the US I think.

YANBU

“To be pissed off is the British phrase

“To be pissed at” is the Americanism

It's an Americanism!

Oh, cross post - yep!

It is OFF, so YANBU at all!
Unfortunately this has become popular via American tv.
I remember explaining to an American colleague, working in the UK, that he was repeatedly telling us that he was drunk. He was horrified!

I am pissed = I am drunk
I am pissed off = I am cross

If I said 'I'm pissed' it would mean I'd had way too much alcohol! To be angry is most definitely 'pissed off'. YANBU.

Americans sometimes say “pissed” without the “at”. I was once in New York on business and while in the —elevator— lift in a building crawling with lawyers (in fact it was the WTC, alas) I heard one woman say to another I got really pissed with the judge yesterday.

'I'm pissed' certainly only has one meaning to me also

So glad it's not just me

Or I'd be rather ....pissed off

Andrew yes, I've heard that 'kinda' talk to.

Funnily enough, in its native land it doesn't irk me as much.

It's just the annoying little happy band of copiers over here.

'I'm pissed that my Baby shower didn't go to plan'.... fine over the water....on here not so.

Taat?

on mumsnet is using Americanisms on par with paedophilia

It's not is, its not question. Excuse my fingers

If someone tells me they're pissed I assume they've been at the gin

Yeah, when people say that I always want to answer, "Why? How much have you had?"

YADNBU. Ditto ‘Mac n cheese’. It’s MACARONI CHEESE. FGS.

Surely some of the usage here comes from our US friends which is fine. The thread above that references bring pissed at being told to use formula sounds very American

Purple YES

'Mac and Cheese' irks me too

Sorry 'n' cheese'

You know some people on here may actually be American?

I recognise many American MN'ers from a few boards on here

Funnily enough I don't think the majority of the 'pissed at' or 'pissed with' on here are.

YANBU. It means something completely different and so is genuinely potentially confusing out of context. And sometimes in context.

it's creeping in more and more. i'm pissed about that.
