Poorly
Tummy ( unless you’re a child. Anyone over 12 who uses tummy should be sent to the moon).

Hubby
Passed away.
And similarly I did not 'lose' my mum, she died. We weren't careless and just left her somewhere.

Cis woman or man, makes me want to scream.

Would you like a medal?

We have medals? OOH YES!! I would love one thank you! Grin

Veg.

Giggles.

Fucking pootle. It’s on here all the time “I was pootling along”. Fuck all the way off!

Invite as in “we received an invite”.

Same with “I brought a toaster in the shop today.”

One of my friend refers to all food as "noms" or "nommies", and via text calls a sandwich a "sammich".

Why are you friends???

I feel like that about "fell pregnant". Like you tripped over and accidentally fell on some pregnant?

Arsehole - someone said it the other day and I had a vision of one. It’s a word I never use.

JorahsMistress · 23/05/2019 17:30

I hate mine so much I can't bear to type most of them 😂 but lets just say they are slang words for vagina, front bottom don't bug me but the rest do 😂

The only one i can bring myself to type that i also hate is titties, i dont mind boobs, breasts, jugs, whatever, but I can't stand titties Blush

I don't like this nom nom thing regarding food. Agree with most pp's, about the usual one's that crop up. But whilst not in the same category as the usuals, for some reason 'batch cooking', makes me cringe. Think it's because I now hate cooking, apart from cooking for a special occasion.

missmouse101 · 23/05/2019 17:33

I like moist, as in a delicious moist cake! Why not?

Ringdonna · 23/05/2019 17:37

So the gusset of my panties is moist is a no no then?😀😀😀

Echobelly · 23/05/2019 17:39

'Youngster' dunno why, just makes me cringe

AftonGlen · 23/05/2019 17:40

I hate the word 'salary' and I hate the word 'engaged'...seemed to have been used to excess over past few years

Moist. It makes me shudder

EngagedAgain · 23/05/2019 17:54

Ringdonna, very witty. Please try to think up some more!

Ohtherewearethen · 23/05/2019 18:13

The usual moist and minge and another one I can't stand is 'thrush'. It makes me feel very uncomfortable (literally 😆)

seesawteddy · 23/05/2019 18:13

Puberty.

I think it’s embarrassment I’ve carried since growing up. The very word makes my skin crawl shudder
