Words and phrases that you can't stand...

[DilemmaADay]

What words and phrases irrationally (or rationally!) annoy you.

Mine are:
'Doggo' - DP uses this all the time, why make the word 'dog' longer
'No is a complete sentence' - just sounds so dismissive and I doubt anyone IRL would talk like this
'That doesnt work for us' - just sounds rude
'Little man' to describe a boy
'Hubby' - this is irrational as loads of people say this
'Boils my piss' - conjours horrible images in my head
'Move on' when talking about a bad situation - yeah, because the person with the problem really hasn't thought about that ...
'It is what it is' - one if those phrases that seemed to spawn from Love Island, I dont know why I hate it.

Any more?

@Starksforthewin

I also hate ‘little man’ for a baby boy. Shudder

Where on earth did it come from, it’s like a plague.

'Lil man' is even worse

'Please delete if not allowed' on forums or Facebook group pages

'Want to guess my gender just for fun?'
No I don't.

Also hate "doggo" and "kiddo".

And 'needs gone/done". Although I'm also relieved that others think that sounds wrong as I was worried it had become a usual way to say something (like "excited for" is the new "excited about") and I just hadn't noticed.

"Narcissist" or worse "narc". It's just the new word for "cunt" on MN.

'Karen' - and yes, I'm talking to you, DS1.
'Going forward'
'It is what it is'

It is what it is

Any sentence with word tummy especially adults. .. so bad I almost can't type it!

• at the end of the day

"To the person who..." posts on Facebook

Hosting- so pretentious. Ripped him a new one and boils my piss, vulgar and a bit childish.

Also....
“Hi, How are you?”
From everyone and anyone, strangers and familiar people alike.
You are not in the least bit interested in how I am so why ask? Why ask? It’s American, it’s false, it’s habitual now to ask it.
It gets my heckles up, in fact I don’t even bother answering it any more, I reply with a cheerful “hi”, but that’s it.
And do you know, no one, not one single person notices or picks up on it. That’s how interested they are.

...and Karen, mysogynistic, ageist and dismissive.

First world problem
Does that make sense? (boss, I'm looking at u!)

Don't judge (Everyone judges, all the time)
Cultural appropriation (it's just human culture)

'Nom' as soon as i read it i get a picture of someone noisey chomping in my ear. It doesn't make me hungry, it makes me want to vomit

“well done you” said in a patronising tone 😡

"Generally" being used in the place of "genuinely".

I was generally shocked by your reaction.

I generally love you.
