Phrases to be consigned to 2018

[setAsProfile]

Mine:

toxic

&

call out

Nonsense of the highest order. Anyone else?

'Picky bits'. It's a buffet, and who is picking bits of what?

'Fur baby'-I think you will find that's a cat.

Also agree with 'call out'. Everyone needs calling out about everything. Which just means you being a sticky beak really.

Making memories
Someone I know is constantly ' making memories with the princesses' 🙄

Also people who turn nouns into verbs unnecessarily.

I don't know why but 'this one' actually makes me physically uncomfortable. It's like fingernails down a blackboard

"Capture" when you mean photograph

"Cis" can fuck right off.
Along with "gender neutral"

Oh God, yes to so many.

Also anything alcohol related - wine o'clock, gin o'clock etc.
Girl boss.
"Resonate" with something.

Any of those smug hashtags - #grateful #blessed #sorrynotsorry

Making Memories. Dreadful

Adulting
gaslighting

Sourcing something rather than shopping for it.

Love you to the moon and back
Living the best life
Blessed
It is what it is

It's in (my/their/his/your) DNA.

People on the radio saying "At the top of the programme". What was wrong with "At the start of the programme" anyway?

Personifying places.

"Glasgow, I am in you".

Fuck off to the far side of fuck.

" My bad" !! My kids keep saying this to me and it's just ridiculous. Whatever happened to my mistake or whatever. It makes no sense and I detest it. The phrase is banned in my house.

"It's one of them innit."

...An utterly meaningless phrase.

Literal violence. (No, someone hurt your feelings)

Agree with identify as. (If you "identify" as something, you are, by definition NOT that something)

Safe space.

Super
Amazing
Big
Little

all overused.

I wish Brexit could be as well, but that won't happen.

I actually used 'this one' on social media a few times before I realised it made me look like a right bellend!

little man -no little woman then, are we not worthy? but then that would be awful too.
mama bear [insert other animal] - you're only following your protective instinct.
boobing the baby ffs
we're pregnant - you are, he isn't.

Naice
CF
This one
Bants
Cheeky wee wine/Prosecco/gin etc
Chick
At the end of the day

I forgot 'boobing the baby' or 'boob monster'. Just talk properly!

My bad. Cannot tell you how much this winds me up. I could kill.

Also, weirdly, “turning” followed by age. As in, “she’s turning sixteen” instead of, “she’ll be sixteen”. I can’t explain why I hate this but I do.

'Simple' or 'simples'. In the context of something like 'if you don't like it then just don't do it. Simples'. Ugh.

Gutted.

It’s overused. Tea’s gone cold? Gutted. Telly on the blink? Gutted. New eyebrows look daft? Gutted.

STAHP!

I'd like to lose "invitation to play", "provocation" and "Wow moments" from all Early Years vocabularies.

Enjoy!
No I've just bought this cake I don't need to be ordered to like it

Pfb - it’s so condescending many parents with just one are better parents than some with multiples.

Boobing the baby - you’re feeding the baby

Cis woman - you’re just a woman

I’ll keep triggered as I have ptsd and trust me being triggered is more than being upset!!
