To ask what commonly used 'MN catchphrases' really get on your wick?

[bathsh3ba]

For me, it's 'and rightly so'. It sounds so bloody sanctimonious and grammatically it just feels wrong! 😡

“Just my opinion but...”
“I may be wrong but...”
“Everyone has their own view but...”
“I feel that...”

Such diffidence drives me nuts. Have the courage of your convictions and don’t be such a wet wipe.

@snowjive2

I'm awful for that 😬 I worry that if I just put my opinion down it won't be read how I would 'say' it, and it would come across really harsh.

@Diorissimo1985

Could not agree with you more, makes me absolutely rage, rest are also annoying but it is giving me a good laugh

What the fuck is a fanny gallop??

Depends on the context, sorry!

Boils my piss is never acceptable

“Food of the Gods”. Ick.

What the fuck is....

Makes you sound precious and special that you've not been exposed to such

@whatsthecraic91 I assume it’s when you see Chris Hemsworth do a press up and you feel a sudden leaping in your vag area...

When a thread descends into two posters bolding and nitpicking at each other.

People who take stuff personally, when its clearly aimed at the population in general. The "professionally offended".

Oh and all the uber-hygiene and poo phobia. Yes even now.

And moaning about supermarket workers, cleaners or workmen who use the loo. Very telling that not many MNers actually do those jobs because I always wish they would come on and say "You try scanning groceries for eight hours and then complain i didnt go out if my way to be chatty"

Didn't want to read and run. If you've time to be checking AIBU you've time to make a meaningful comment.

Line eyes.
Not my monkeys not my circus.
The hill that I die on.
Didn't want to read and run. (As if the OP knew or cared that you were there in the first place.)

@Bananacake20 yes! Makes me so cross.

‘Just that really’

Shut.up.

Boils my piss
Makes my teeth itch

I can't stand both of those.

When someone says something mildly amusing and someone always replies "I've just spat tea all over my keyboard"
No you haven't.

And all the secrecy. "Dh and I are both from different countries and we live in a 3rd country but we're thinking of moving to a 4th country...."

Just tell us where you live and where you're thinking of moving to, we're not going to guess who you are, countries generally have a lot of people in them.

I really hate it when people are trying to be obtuse about something so as not to be ‘outing’ and they say things like ‘she’s quite well off; think skiing holidays in St. Blah Blah and 3 children at boarding school’

Also when someone describes an encounter/argument/conversation with another person and someone posts something like ‘what did she say when you asked ’ it’s so passive aggressive!

'lo and behold'
'Fast forward a few years'

I don't know why they irritate me so much, I just get an unreasonable twitch whenever I read them.

My not unreasonable twitch is 'should/would of'. That is unforgiveable.

When someone is going through a difficult time and loads of posters pile in with, ‘Sending positive thoughts/vibes/energy”, I mean really you’re sending nothing, it’s just a load of rubbish new age speak that makes the poster feel like they’ve done something.

Pre pandemic when someone was having financial difficulties and needed money quickly some bright spark would pop up to say " can you take in some washing/walk some dogs/ do some ironing/

Gobsmacked. When someone says this I want to shoot them at dawn

Anything that's meant to be a witty retort.

'Tinkly little laugh'
'Did you mean to be so rude?'
'Are you on glue?'

Fuck off. No one has ever said anything like that in real life surely.

First time poster.

Name changed for this as its identifying

I hate 'Get your ducks in a row' and 'give your head a wobble' for some reason.

Give your head a wobble is awful.
Starting sentences with the word, "so"

Judgy.
Judgy pants.
‘Me and X....(insert any verb)’
‘Myself and X ditto...’ (almost worse)
