Sayings on MN that bug you!!!

[MJCadman]

Off the top of my head....

"This with bells on"

"This!!!!"

"First reply nailed it as usual"

"You are awesome / my hero op"

"Are you on glue?"

"Are you ok? 😬"

This. And also using surely…it’s so passive aggressive.

Using POW for prices of Wales, when it’s always been used for Prisoner of War 🤦‍♀️, that one really bloody confused me.

HTH

It rarely does.

Thank you. I looked it up and found the same. But surely, if you feel disgust or aversion, you must feel uncomfortable. It's not as if a word can have only one definition.

I'll rephrase: Why can't people say "He makes me feel disgusted" instead of "he gives me the ick." There are many ways of saying that something or something is repulsive or disgusting, but many posters seem to rely on the copycat word "ick."

The OP asked about phrases that you dislike, and this is mine.

The word "Ladies".
I can't think of a single context where it cannot be substituted for a better word.
Not even "Ladies and gentlemen"

It's estate agent speke.

If in doubt, watch "Hello Ladies " with Stephen Merchant.

“The hill you want to die on”. For some reason, this really irks me!

"DH works long hours"

"DH pays his ex well above CMS"

Does he aye.

“Be grateful” usually with emotional manipulation before or after it.

fur baby. No...just NO

“Making memories” although that’s not just on here.

Vitriol

This one really annoys me.
It's so rude and no one in real life would just say 'No'

The overuse of the word vile.

I also don't like 'boils my piss'.

Posters shaking and crying at having to answer the door.

A poster today who had a 'physical reaction' to some news, did she vomit, collapse or perhaps have a migraine?

One of the most ridiculous and annoying things I can think of is describing something you like as "to die for".

Quite apart from the fact that absolutely nothing is that good, if you are dead, you can't enjoy it. So what's the point?

A poster today who had a 'physical reaction' to some news

This one made me laugh, especially what it was in relation to.

Not necessarily on mumsnet but I hate the phrase "it is what it is"

Why can't people say "He makes me feel disgusted" instead of "he gives me the ick."

Who knows...could be because its an in thing of its time.
Even disgusted is a very strong word to use when it's not in the correct context.

"And what did he say when you asked him about this?"

When the poster is clearly upset and wondering if she has reason to doubt something.

In general some posters seem to delight in point scoring and being cruel

"My DH has a hobby, I can't say what it is as it's too outing"

So he rides a bicycle at weekends then with half a million others.

😂
I also don't like grim, give your head a wobble, you do you and iyswim.

‘Think’. For example, “my teenager (think university age) has just devoured an entire chicken when it was intended to be used in a massive salad.”

LTB

Give your head a wobble.
Fuck off to the far side of fuck
No is a complete sentence

Sounds like ADHD / ASD / ODD / insert other alphabet soup of choice - it's getting to the point where having a self diagnosed "label" is almost obligatory on here

'Just my opinion', and 'just something to consider' when you have posted something that makes no sense and that runs contrary to what everyone else on the thread has posted.
