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! 😡

Not so much phrases but the abbreviations get me, Dear husband, dear daughter etc, it just makes me cringe and I don’t know why! Also on the pregnancy/conception boards when people use DTD, you had a shag, we’re all adults, just write that!!!!!!😂

Bat shit crazy

Also on the pregnancy/conception boards when people use DTD, you had a shag, we’re all adults, just write that!!

God yes. Even worse than DTD is BD although that tends to be used less on MN than in other places. Quite frankly if you’re too immature to be able to write had sex rather than DTD then you’re too immature to be having a baby.

'Unmumsnetty hug' = the poster patting herself on the back, while pretending to care about the OP - 'I'm so lovely & caring, unlike everyone else on here'.

'Shamelessly place-marking' - just use the 'watch this thread' function, you half-wit.

Agree with the mysterious "hobbies" (it doesn't help that my mind without fail goes to model trains for some reason).

Picky tea gets on my nerves, it sounds unbearably smug to me considering its just random shit you have in the fridge cos you cba to cook

All the abbreviations. I've never used them. It's daughter/son/mother, or whatever. And the 'darling' part of it is so twee and cringeworthy, particularly when a 'DH' is being anything but!

I see this on MN sometimes buy also on social media.

Looking for (whatever). Can someone tell me (how to obtain whatever). And... go!

Makes me feel like the poster thinks everyone should just kind of fall over each other for the honor of commenting. Everytime I read the and... go! I find myself thinking NO. Fuck you.

*but

"crack on" urgh

Fuck off to the far side of fuck and then tick off some more.

Cringe.

Fuck not tick.

oh and calling people "spiteful" sounds like playground taunts

"manoeuvre" JUST SAY MOVED
"fuel"
"jammies"
"firmly"

words that fill me with rage but i simply cannot explain why
i'm sure i'll add more when i think of them

'Read the full thread'

No I won't read the full fucking thread - it's 20 pages long and I have better things to do with my time.

Boobing

"Just that, really." at the start of the post to reiterate the title. Then continues to elaborate

I've found my people

Really winds me up

Run for the hills

@WorraLiberty not much makes me laugh on MN these days, but that was bloody beautiful! 😂

@MrsNoah2020 'Shamelessly place-marking' - just use the 'watch this thread' function, you half-wit.

this! 🙃

“Boils my piss!” I hate this one. Never heard anyone use it in real life.

“Didn’t want to read and run”

“Get your ducks in a row”

It's not a catchphrase but I don't like it when people tell us about their gross problem in the thread title. Some of them are things that most people don't want to know about.

Azrael I agree! It's the same as when people put 'discuss...'

No, I won't discuss.

Azriel sorry, I got your name wrong!
