What words make you cringe?

[Bintymcbintface]

Just that really. What words make you kinda recoil.

Mine are:

Treats
Creamy
Hubby
Furbabes/furbabies

Myself

when it should be I or me !!

My eyes roll so far back they nearly fall out.

Myself too.

I love these threads.

Holibobs
Arvo (for afternoon)
Little man (no no he is a baby)
Pleasure
Groaning (especially a table groaning with food)
When a book deceived someone as ‘with child’

Nom nom nom

Describes a pregnant woman as ‘with child’

I also hate lots of euphemisms for death like ‘he has passed’ it makes me so angry.

Tummy.
It's twee and infantile.

Yummy.
Indie school

Cascading - as in, information at a meeting

A little bit sick in my mouth every time.

Nibbles

[quote Bintymcbintface]@ChuckGarabedian how on earth is that even supposed to make sense? Wtf is selectsh?[/quote]
‘Selection’ I assume (this was in the era of ‘totes emosh’ and other nonsensical, not-quite-abbreviations, but clearly it was so heinous my brain has refused to forget it). Haven’t seen it used since, thankfully!

Not a popular opinion on here and I have one of my own but the word is awful!

Also, not written but people who pronounce 'meals' as 'meyuws'

Myself when it should beIorme!!My eyes roll so far back they nearly fall out.

Yep, this. But also when people use 'I' when it should be 'me' - e.g. "He had dinner with my husband and I."

Belly
Bellyful
He’s when they mean his
His when they mean he’s
Gifting instead of giving
Gifts instead of presents. Something about the way the f and t sounds come together makes me flinch.

Pronouns

I have heard Americans say "tot". That's worse.

Poorly, I hate this term if it's used to describe anything worse than a slight cold in a child. Adults should never never be described as poorly.

Famalam
'Making memories '
Holidays

'On my holidays with my family making memories '
😬😬😬

I have never heard the word holibobs outside of MN threads on awful words.

*Holibobs

Gosh
Especially at the start of an MN post.

I can't work out what holibobs is. Or famalam. I like the sounds though.

Moist, gusset, when someone refers to their baby as ‘baba’, kiddlets,

Awesome
Picky bits

Cringe used as any other part of speech other than as a verb.

"It's cringe and awkward '"

"It's absolutely cringe"

Prolly instead of probably.
