Is this the most overused word on Mumsnet which isn’t heard in RL? What other words or expressions do you only hear on here? (Lighthearted)

Don't forget 'livid' and 'incandescent with rage'.

HerRoyalNotness · 21/05/2020 03:35

Lately it’s been horrific

Little Tarquin tripped and scraped his knee, it was horrific!

Thepigeonsarecoming · 21/05/2020 03:40

@PolPotNoodle @herroyalnotness I shall try to use horrific and livid on here tomorrow 😂

Haven’t come across “incandescent with rage“ must be missing out on the really awful posts!!!

AIBU and "You do you"

Appreciate both - just do not hear IRL

BadLad · 21/05/2020 03:52

Vile

Bloodybridget · 21/05/2020 04:01

Fuming. All guns blazing. Disgusted.

houseplantlover · 21/05/2020 04:06

Utterly ridiculous.

FortunesFave · 21/05/2020 04:18

I hate a lot of things people say on here. Some of them are ugly and coarse...like "Tear him a new one"

Wtf??

I'm no prude...I swear and everything...but talking about 'tearing someone a new arsehole" is gross.

Then there's the lovely "It boils my piss"

No. Just no. Oh and the overly used and chronically unfunny "Are you on glue?"

Not at all as amusing as people seem to think it is.

nitgel · 21/05/2020 04:19

Disgraceful is also common.

Cissyandflora · 21/05/2020 04:26

Batshit crazy and unhinged. Who says that in rl?

Inkpaperstars · 21/05/2020 04:29

Howling

Sonichu · 21/05/2020 04:32

Did you mean to be so rude?

dunnybum · 21/05/2020 04:34

I hate that one @sonichu it's really not the comeback people seem to think it is.

dunnybum · 21/05/2020 04:36

"Would you say that to someone in RL?"

Well yeah I would actually.

Toilenstripes · 21/05/2020 05:22

“Gets on my tits” is one that makes me judge.

Thepigeonsarecoming · 22/05/2020 01:01

Loving these, thank you 😂

CannonCaboodle · 22/05/2020 01:03

Discusting, guys. I mean, it's so grim that I'm just raging.

CJsGoldfish · 22/05/2020 01:05

Fuming
I prefer fumming or loosing my shit 🤣

Batshit crazy and unhinged. Who says that in rl?
We say batshit crazy all the time!

Thepigeonsarecoming · 22/05/2020 01:08

I do love a fuming post 😂

OP posts:
FOJN · 22/05/2020 01:10

Afraid I use batshit crazy (often just batshit) and grim frequently in real life. I like unhinged too but have fewer opportunities for that one Smile

AlCalavicci · 22/05/2020 01:15

Red flags

I have never heard that IRL , i think most would say 'warning signs'

iklboo · 22/05/2020 01:21

Shaking with anger

LaureBerthaud · 22/05/2020 01:22

Rediculous

Drysnitchinsbitchin · 22/05/2020 01:23

The boiling of the piss.
