What phrases irritate you?

[Hesma]

Almost 5 year old…. they’re FOUR!!!!!

We’re pregnant… no, one of you is…

What other phrases really irritate you? 🤣

My bad. Makes no sense!

People referring to their pets as "fur babies".

Americanisms in general but my pet hate is 'can I get' as in 'can I get a skinny latte'. No, dumbo, that's what the barista is for.

I will make a special exemption for 'ass', which often sounds better, especially in portmanteau terms e.g. 'asshat'

Agreed - not even sure what it means.

"Gives me rage ".

I assume it means "makes me angry".

Bang out of order…..

"I identify as "

But saying almost 5 vs saying 4 makes sense. Developmental wise it makes sense

I’m being my authentic self.

Just speaking my truth.

“My truth” (no pet, it’s your opinion)

My bad

The wrong way round of asking a question these days e.g " And it's my problem because?" ..drives me fucking mad grrrr

Super" in front of every dam thing " super excited, super cute grrrrrrrr

“Get over yourself” always sounds like playground-speak to me.

When we were teenagers, a friend of a friend always said everything “gave [her] the fat ‘ump” which just flagged up her stupidity. Really grating.

Making memories!

“We” are pregnant is cringeworthy. YANBU.

Oh, and bought being mixed up with brought as a PP mentioned is annoying.

Big one for me is calling a tip a “hack” now, or a “life hack” 🙄

I've seen an increase on social media of the phrase 'if you know, you know' or 'for those that know' etc.

Basically, they're putting things on social media and then making it VERY CLEAR that it's information that only a very select and important group of people are allowed to know.

I mean, fuck me, I only have you on social media because I'm a fucking nosy bitch. At least tell me the whole story! 😂

But on a serious note, if you have something to say that only a few people out of the hundreds you're 'friends' with is allowed to know about.. why not just send them a private message?

Ridiculously pleased to know that it’s not just me!

And just like that my baby is 7

It's taken seven years actually

Blessed 😡

The local FB pages are full of people being "blessed" with their job, where they live , their partner or husband, kids, friends or their pets!!

What happened to plain old normal lucky!!

Bloody annoying!!

‘Can I get’
‘Simples’
’Furbabies’
’Lets sort this out, yes?’
’Go’ after starting a discussion on social media

Making memories......🙄

Anything grammatically incorrect, but "train station" is the absolute worst.
Anything twee, infantilised or sentimental (eg "hubby").

My list is therefore very, very long.......

“Job’s a good’un.”

Usually tagged on the end of useless, platitudinal bollocks advice on here. Can’t bear it, instantly think the less of posters who use it. (Have never heard anyone use it in real life.)

“Rip him a new one” means create a new bum hole, violently. A sort of manual anal fissure. Not sure the punishment fits the crime, usually.

Everything happens for a reason. 🙄

That was an unfortunate juxtaposition. 😬

I think almost 5 year old makes sense. Developmentally there can be a big difference between just turned 4 and turning 5 in a couple of weeks.

Almost 43 year old, on the other hand, is daft.
