I’m going to have to split up because his phrases irritate me

[LittleBlackCurlyHairs]

Bloke I’ve been seeing for 8 months. He says the weirdest phrases and says the strangest things I can’t get over my annoyance.

One of them is, he’ll yawn and then say “oh! I’m yawning well!”. Wtf does that even mean?? I’ve never heard it said before and he says it almost every day.
Another one is “we need to nip that in the bun” bun??!! I have told him that it’s bud but he carries on saying Bun. I find it annoying.

“Keep sure you do that” “keep sure to set your alarm” etc etc ... keep sure?!

Jellypeano on the pizza

There is other stuff too but relationship aside ... has anyone else heard of these sayings?? (Keep sure, yawning well etc)

My ex used to say “Get DOWWWWWN and boogie” complete with a little shimmy, at points when normal people would say yes, no, hello, goodbye, please or thank you.

This just made me properly laugh and I needed that today 😂

intermittent I've just had to go over to youtube and watch both clips all over again. It never gets old

"Hey ho, the wind and the rain" is from the fool's song in Twelfth Night. It's a bloody weird verbal tic for someone to have, though. I have a friend who keeps blurting out bits of whatever random lyric is in her head at the time (usually the Minder theme tune) but she does have Tourettes so allowances have to be made.

I don't want to come across as a perve, but I do want to know what these "technical issues" are. The guy sounds most unfortunate all round really.

Yes that would be beyond annoying! Sounds like he is trying to be "funny". That and the sex - dump and run OP!

Does he call it "willy cuddles"

Jesus wept.

An ex of mine used to say "hey ho, the wind and the rain" whenever there was an awkward silence - which was often, as we had very little in common. He fancied himself as a thespian and we met in a school production of The Tempest. I mentioned it in a previous thread but please, if anyone else has had the same experience .... there can't be many like him.

An ex used to whimper at the end of sexy times.

I once bailed out on a first date because he said he needed the "little boys room". Give me strength.

IF he says hollibobs then get rid now 😝

Skybluee, I could be wrong but I think babby (to s ound like tabby in tabby cat) is also Birmingham dialect for baby (How is our babby), rather than always a twee infantilism.

Does he call bar staff ‘bar keep’?

A lad who considered himself to be an IT expert, and imparting knowledge to me, told me a computer virus was a living orgasm..

Sounds like hilarious Colin from the fast show. (Apologies to anyone too young for that reference). Make sure you tell him when doing the dumping "it's not me, it's YOU"

"Hold on...technical sex problems?

Does he try and put it in the wrong hole by mistake, and cover himself with a 'whoopsidoo' or a 'that's the exit not the entrance'? grin Or better still, calls perfectly normal fanny farts something like 'oopsiguffs' or 'you are muff guffing well !'

Apologies OP. I am bored today."

... actually belly laughing here.

Yep, that’s bad. But he should leave you 1st for calling him a bloke.

Ex Mil used to pretend she couldn't say certain words just so people would think she was so funny and cutesy-poo. 'Pyooeegot' for Peugeot was one of them. Ugh. Hilarious (not)

Can't say I've heard of any of those.

Regarding the yawning, I would hate that; yawns should be discreet and contained with no noise or exclamations of any kind.

Tell him! He needs educating.

I'm sure there was a thread years ago much like this where the boyfriend was actually saying "Hey ho, the wind and the rain" when there was a pause in the conversation and she hated it.

My husband, when someone does something stupid, says they have as much sense as a false face and it annoys me to a very irrational level.

An ex used to whimper at the end of sexy times.

Dear god 🥺

A long long long ago ex used to say 'here we go' when he started to orgasm

Needless to say 'we' weren't going anywhere, most of the time

“Keep sure...” sounds Irish-like to me but the rest...no.

I once dated (not for long) aman who crinkle cut chips 'wiggly waggly chips'. At 40 years old.
He also used to say 'munt it?' instead of 'mustn't it?'. When tackled on it he said it was a 'Yorkshire thing'. I've lived in Yorkshire all my life and never heard it.

THANK YOU! To the very funny posters on this thread. Having a very bad weekend and opening this thread made me roar with laughter.

Does he live with his mum?

This thread is hilarious.

He sounds a bit thick which is fine if the sex is decent and he's nice and all that good stuff

But congratulating himself on his yawning...?! And the bad sex!
