'Foodstuffs' and other words too awful to mention.

[rabbitsnose]

Some words just really make me shudder. Also, 'meal' and 'helping' as in 'another helping of broccoli'. Noooo

Moist

Yummy. Scrummy. Anything dick headish that posh people say.

God so pleased others hate meal. Awful.

I dislike crisp white shirt.

Ponoka7 That killed me

I hate it when people say, ‘full fat coke’, 😂 makes me want to shout, ‘IT DOESN’T CONTAIN ANY FAT!’ 🤭 First world problems 😬

So glad I've found other people who hate the word "meal". My mum uses it all the time. It drives me mad. If we go for a curry she calls it an Indian meal 😬

HATE when people say 'pimp' to improve

I'm gonna pimp that sauce

You are SO not, Jamie

Get a fucking grip you Essex cunt

Men greeting each other as ‘buddy’ or ‘bud’. Something very smug and patronising about it. Also not keen on ‘fab’. Obviously there’s also ‘funky’ when applied to anything other than actual funk music....proper nails down a blackboard stuff 😬

"Boasts" when used by estate agents. As in "the house boasts a roof, four windows and a door".

I can actually explain why I dislike ‘meal’. I don’t know about here in the UK but in the US we have the phrase ‘mealy-mouthed’ to mean insincere or hypocritical, or not wanting to just say what they think. So ‘meal’ even on its own has a negative connotation in my head. That being said, my husband has called the dining room table the ‘meal table’ - I said to please not do that.

Expat. Most words I tolerate, but I fucking hate that word with a passion. Even if I’d only moved to the UK temporarily for work, I’d still call myself an economic migrant or immigrant.

Fresh

As in “I made us a nice fresh salad”, fresh doesn’t need to be said, everyone knows your not eating mouldy lettuce irrationally annoys me.

Poorly. As in Aaw are you feeling poorly? It makes me shudder. Also my BILs family greet each other with their position within the family. For example, oh hey sis! Hey cuz! Fuck. Off.

When people say "said" as in "and said car was parked on my drive..." like they're some sort of gucking barrister or something.......urrrgghhhh

Oh I hate those phrases that go around in workplaces for a few months before going out of fashion. I can't think of many examples (menopause brain) but a current one is 'deep dive'. It's just a bit wanky

I hate the word pud for a dessert. Horrible!

Also, hideous Americanisms that have crept in...

A black trouser (it's a pair of fcuking black trousers)
Bangs - bleurrggggh

Plus:
Lush
Shut the front door
Fam
Oh my days
Yummy

Dh calls puddings 'sweatmeats' sometimes .
I can feel my privates slam shut like a venus fly trap each time.

Cuppa
Bite to eat
Putting my/ our own stamp on it, instead of decorating

Has 'y'all' been mentioned? I know they say it in the south of the US but it is all over the internet these days and it is so annoying.

When people saying they "do" things in the below way:

Let's do lunch
We did Disney

Etc etc

'Meal deal' makes me want to hurl

I hate it when people say, ‘full fat coke’

I'm allergic to aspartame. If I order a coke I have to specify 'full fat' or otherwise I'll be given the diet version and become quite ill.

"I'm allergic to aspartame. If I order a coke I have to specify 'full fat' or otherwise I'll be given the diet version and become quite ill."

The phrase is 'regular coke' or 'normal coke' or 'original coke'.

No one is trying to kill you.

Panties is a gruesome word. 😖
When food items are pluralised, such as hamS, pickleS, meatS. It’s horrible!
Shortening words for no good reason. My MIL does this lots. So, pud, nap (nappy!), knicks (knickers), scorch (“it’s a bit scorch” Meaning it’s hot).
Supper.

And my DH says “bits and bobs” when referring to, what other rightly despise, a picky tea.

Both make me die a bit inside.

Oh and smellies. Urgh.
