Words I hate...I AIBU I know but I want to tell you mine and hear yours.

Smellies.

What an ugly word for something as nice as beauty or bath products.

Booze.

So SLOPPY sounding. BOOZE...no...no...no.

A perfectly intelligent , otherwise lovely person I know routinely writes on social media about 'anyhoo' , 'tehe ' and her 'luvly hubs'. Gives me the absolute bowk.

Nom nom nom / yummy
He/she send me texties
Turned round and said / so I says, so she says

As I've said before , any form of passive aggression - particularly on here , where posters pretend to not know what someone means due to the spelling or grammar. Drives me bonkers.

A phrase that annoys me is when people begin sentences with “To be honest...”

Quite a few of the above! But just recently I have become quite irrationally annoyed by the word "important" Every news programme, local bulletin, newspaper or social media is stressing that something is "important" I feel it is devaluing "important" topics...

Taking the piss

Come down like a tonne of bricks

Like as a filler word

Give your head a wobble

Bosom

Misus

And for some reason cheeky nandos

Bubble - used as a verb in the context of the pandemic. Eg “I’m upset my DM is bubbling with my DSis instead of me.” I don’t mind “My DM has formed a bubble with my DSis.”

Yes!!! I can't stand "bubbling up with/bubbling with" and so many people are using it all over the place. I don't know where is started being used as a verb, but it's awful. Like you, I don't mind it being used as a noun.

I also don't like meal.

“Changing his/her bum”.

No, you’re changing its nappy.

Grab.

‘Grab a coffee’. No, just get one.

Guesstimate.
Ask, as in “what’s the ask?” seems to have replaced request. Don’t know why.

'Face Covering'. Makes me think of someone peeling off their skin. I might be weird...

I couldn’t agree more about using “myself” to mean me. I also get irrationally irritated by people misusing ‘pacific’ and ‘poignant’.

Had nothing against this particular word before March.

Unprecedented, which I will now always associate with coronavirus. I suppose nothing has ever been as unprecedented in my lifetime

Buddies. Don't know why but I cannot stand that word.

Squelch shudders

I'm in the " pudding is correct " camp. Dessert refers to fruit etc.
I also hate patio and lounge.

Oh and I hate the following:

Turned around and said
Rock up, as in "she rocked up 5 minutes late"
Fair enough

I'm sure others will come to mind after I have posted this!

"Can I get...?" It's"may I have...?"

Moist
Meal
Both of which make me feel queasy 🤢

And toilet and pardon? Settee and serviette?

I was brought up to despise all these words, and many others. I am trying hard not to be so snobbish... but I still hate them!

@waterlego

Grab.

‘Grab a coffee’. No, just get one.

Yes! I actually don't like "grab" in general. "I went to Tesco to grab some milk" etc. It just sounds as if everyone is going around rudely snatching things 😂

Don't know if it's been said already but we're pregnant. No only one of you is pregnant. We're having a baby isn't so bad, but can't stand we're pregnant

Glitter Yes, exactly!

Choc or hot choc just put chocolate!!! Drives me mad

I’m the same with meal.

“Shall we meet up for a meal?”

I’ve hated it for years and just always reply, “dinner sounds great. When?”

‘Chowing down’ - eating 😡
‘Rocking’ - wearing clothes 😡
‘Off of’ - 😡😡😡😡

They give me the rage !
