To really wish posters would stop using ‘naice’

[WandaVision2]

It was amusing many years ago when it was first used but now it’s just so old and a little bit lame.

When people write 'DDog'
Like I know you love your dog, but adding an extra letter?! For this dear dog, when usually these abbreviations are meant to shorten words not make them longer

I'll have to re-watch some Hyacinth Bucket; I honestly don't remember her saying, "Naice".

She may not have done - she's being used on this thread as an example of the type, not a source of the word, and to illustrate why it's not mocking the 'posh' but rather those who are aping it and getting it wrong

Jilly Cooper was the first time I came across it - Rivals was published in 1988, and I think the character Valerie Jones was based on one of her 'Weybridge' characters in Class (1979)

Oh I've never read Jilly Cooper. Well she obviously has a lot to answer for. Hee hee just noticed your nickname.

I'm pretty sure "naice" was a typo.
then it took off

It wasn't a typo, it wasn't just an MN thing either.
