It's half a sentence! I keep reading it on social media...

'When you paint one fo your walls grey...'
'When you try on clothes from last summer...'
'When you decide to make a cake...'

and that's the end of the sentence. Arghhhh.

When I see unanswered threads like this is always just pop on to say hi 👋

It gives me the fucking rage. So glad I came off Facebook as loads of people seemed to be doing it on there. It's up there with 'I can't even'

Coupled with sentences starting with "so", I think it's the beginning of the end. We'll be grunting and gesturing before long.

My friend got a generic thankyou letter from Prince William and a sentence started with So, which was annoying!

My favourite one was:

"When your dick appointment gets cancelled"...

Add to this 'And just like that....'

The worst for me is when someone on social media asks for recommendations and then types “and go.”

I wasn’t actually poised waiting for you to give me permission to recommend a snooker table Hmm.

‘That awkward moment when...’

It's usually a caption accompanying a funny picture. Maybe you're too uncool to get it.

When you get annoyed by stuff that doesn't affect you...

Usually spotted in close quarters with “this one”, eg “When you just pop to the pub for one G&T with this one...” accompanied by picture of two women and a table full of empty glasses.
