Sayings on MN that you cannot stand!

[Namechangedforthreadbackafter]

Inspired/copied/due to lack of my own ideas

What phrases/come backs/irritating things do people say on MN?

'Didn't want to read and run' means 'I have nothing interesting or relevant to say, but I want my voice to be heard'.

*GreenTortoise" Yes, when really their toddler has eaten a shit load of chocolate and cake

Head tilt and tinkly laugh. The poster thinks they seem superior and winning, I think they're a gimp.

Using 'baby' as in "so I brought baby to the soft play..." Irrationally annoys me. Just make up a fucking name if you must.

Oh and I hate HTH. So smug and nasty.

"Ducks in a row". I don't know why but this is so irritating, especially as as soon as one person says it, up pop loads more to repeat it on the same post.

This drives me up the wall. It’s THE baby. It’s not hard!

When someone shows you who they are believe them or something like that, always spouted on the relationships board.

'How old are you? You sound really young'

'Are you 12?'

Describing food as "yummy"
I didnt even use word like that with my babies!!
Naive. It lost its humour the second time it was posted a couple if light years ago and now some people use as an perfectly normal adjective, eg we went to a naive restraint in a naive part if town and the foid was yummy.
I get the rage over that , which incidentally i also hate!🤣
People " fume and " rage" over relatively minor things.
I often think these people have little resilience.

@GreenTortoise yes! They can’t openly brag though so they have to word it as if they’re concerned they’re not eating enough

“Boils my piss”

Just a recipe for a nasty water infection

Head tilt and tinkly laugh. The poster thinks they seem superior and winning, I think they're a gimp.

Im not going to claim I spat tea over the keyboard (as that is another phrase I hate!) but I have just laughed at this

You sound like hard work.

I think this is considered the ultimate MN put down.

Are you on glue?

Sarnie. Is sandwich so hard to type?

@LookAtMoiPloise

“Did you mean to be so rude?” Er, yes

Hah! My exact thought.

I've replied with yes because pp was rude.

The hills are that way

Not a saying but I find I do think some posters use the f word unnecessarily. It makes them sound as though they are trying to be young and cool.

I hate the following:

To be over the moon.

Fur babies for pets.

Not my circus, not my monkey.

I hate it when people start trying to be clever about telling the op to get a grip.

"You should go to the grip shop and buy yourself one"

"I have a spare grip if you need it"

Or even posting photos of a curby grip, so bloody annoying.

Head tilt
Tinkly laugh

Fuck me, I hate those phrases two so much.

NAICE!!!
I didnt notice auto correct had creeped in!!

This is what I look like every time I see

Hubs & Hubby

'thrown under the bus' I mean what idiot started that saying off

That's been around at least 35 years, nothing to do with MN

No, tbf it is a legitimate part of the English language and no about being ‘young and cool’. That’s like those who say ‘oh it shows a limited vocabulary’ - I know plenty of people with vast vocabularies that still say fuck and cunt
