I’ve reached the point of feeling a totally irrational surge of rage whenever I see them which is every damn day…

“I was today years old when”

“POV”

“That feeling when”

Anything that is referred to as a “hack”.

Calling an outfit a “fit”

Furbabies, I’ve had my vet refer to me as their ‘mum’ and told the cat to go and sit with his sister ( the dog) ‘you’ve got this is another one’

ColdGirlWinter · 20/06/2024 15:17

I do say furchild, furgirl etc - but only to the cat, not to anyone else!

Side hustle. You're flogging old baby clothes on Vinted, not selling crack for the county lines.

Not a saying but it seems on Instagram EVERYONE has to do the bloody peace sign. It's as if they don't have anything to do with their hands, they have to do it.

I asked a child why they did it. Their response "Just coz ......"

"sorry to jump in on here" <insert questions that has nothing to do with with the OPs enquiry>

"sorry to jump in on here" <insert questions that has nothing to do with with the OPs enquiry>

Oh yes. "Sorry to derail" "Sorry to hijack your post". So they're aware they're doing exactly that but do it anyway. Idiots.

"Wait,..........." followed by a stupid observation or question.

RaraRachael · 27/06/2024 16:33

Ugly crying

Ugly crying

Ah, I quite like ugly crying, as someone incapable of a delicate sniffle with a solitary tear, it's a perfect description.

Calliecarpa · 27/06/2024 16:57

As Sookafatwan said above, 'Wait,....' followed by some stupid lame observation/question.

'So you agree that...' when the person writing it knows darn well that the person they're responding to doesn't agree with what they're saying.

'Care to show me some evidence for XYZ?' when the 'XYZ' is something incredibly obvious and known to everyone.

'I'll wait.' The inevitable follow-up remark to the question above, always written on a new line to make it clear that the person doesn't believe there actually is any evidence.

Sookafatwan · 27/06/2024 17:09

I know its everywhere but I wish everyone who uses "it gives me the ick" would also f off and ...

Poppyg123 · 27/06/2024 22:54

'I'm done with' ( x, y, or z). So annoying. Do you mean you have finished?
But then too,( not a social media gripe, but a literary one) where 'I finished'
denotes having had a orgasm- awful. We're looking at you Sally Rooney.

People who say 'Be kind'. It wouldn't bother me but for the fact you can guarantee that the person saying it is most definitely NOT kind.

Oh yes. They usually mean "allow me to carry on with my ridiculous behaviour unchallenged".

‘I’d like to introduce myself here’s a i photo I took’ .. brilliant thanks 😂
and can’t stand people fluttering their fingers under their chin
