'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

'A lot of mnetters love portion. Meal plan and batch cook in Sensible Portions because we have lost sight of what overweight looks like blah blah blah. It makes me want to shove pork pies into my face as fast as I can.'

Ha, yes, me too, and I'm a vegetarian

"All the world" as in - love you all the world! Doesn't make any sense!

Also "all the feels"!

Suckle is my worst. ‘He suckled at the breast’ euuuw!
Makelove (just saying it’s out loud gives me the shivers) ‘lashings of mascara and a slick of lipgloss’, ‘ let’s do this’, Lush, mulch, and when people use the word delicious to describe something that isn’t food, as in ‘life should be a delicious experience’

Prosecco

Oh and when I see gorgeous written as Gawjuss

Thriving. All over the education threads. People’s kids never just like school or do well there, they always are always thriving.

It sounds like writhing, or squirming. Not nice.

Also, meal. Horrid word.

What's worse than 'thriving' is 'flying' (often 'flying academically', or even 'flying academically and socially').

Also the puzzling 'top of (his/her) class'. The posters always sound like they've taken a wrong turning into an Enid Blyton novel.

"You got this" and "calling someone out"

'Lush'

Your whatever-is-being-discussed, your choice.
End of.

Eateries, often used in local newspapers, I hate that word!
Also: pairings, melt-in-the-mouth.

Reaching out to and opening up.

“Calling someone out” used to mean challenging them to a duel. Wish it would revert to its former meaning.

Gas

Sorry if it's already been said, but "snack". Don't know why but it just puts my teeth on edge.

“Op”
“Pud”

Too many syllables in pudding and operation , then? I don’t mind them spoken , just in print .
Like in magazines where they have weekly “my op” sections, and weekly “pud” recipes . Take-A-Break , j’accuse!

‘Chow down’. Like, you know, a dog would.
Aaargh.

Any grown adult describing food as 'yummy'

Yesterday afternoon on Radio 4 there was a drama and two of the characters 'made love' then talked about going for a 'Chinese meal'.

I immediately thought of this thread.

I concur about yummy, it sets my teeth on edge every time. Ten times worse when it's used to describe a person Not envy

People in their twenties being described, or describing themselves, as 'kids'.

Adding an -ee sound to the end of any word. Sleeps instead of days. Basically anything that makes an adult sound as if they're speaking to/like a toddler.

Definitely cheeky G and T! Why????! 😡

Oh and detest Mwaah!

'boyf' for boyfriend.

“Lunch” and “Church” when you can hear the emphasis on the “

“Amazeballs”, “Okie dokie” and “YOLO” can all fuck off

“Tummy” makes me feel sick

“Drawing” in a non art context “Drawing a bath”, “drawing the curtains”,
“a drawing pain”

Saying your kids age in months when its over 1 year old “Little Freddie is 24 months today” no you have a 2 year old

“Chu”
