AIBU to get visceral ick from...

[Chopbob]

People using the word gosh, or golly gosh.

I have never in real life heard anyone other than MN posters and Disney princesses use gosh. It's absolutely vile.

It can get in the bin along with moist, supper and plonk (wine).

(Lighthearted of course)

I don't like the word, "kitchen" and if it's repeated a lot, it really gets on my nerves. Such an ugly, finicky-sounding word. Also, I could get excited about a redecorated bedroom or living room or even a new bathroom, but never about a new kitchen. They are dull places for doing housework. I know I'm being unreasonable.

I say gosh and golly, it’s a completely natural part of my vocabulary, would say or type it without a second thought, I don’t use it to replace a swear word but tend to use it if something has surprised, shocked or impressed me, not sure why that is dishonest, what a bizarre train of thought.

I hate the phrase "oh my god" so would far rather hear Gosh

I can't stand the word ick @Chopbob

I too love the word cunt @BauhausOfEliott

"cuppa". Bleurgh. Equally as bad as "hubby"

Can't stand when people say days of the week like Tuesdee, Wednesdee etc.

The phrase 'mind you'

The word ‘ick’ gives me the creeps. Funny how we’re all so different.

"The ick" gives me the ick.

I’ve now become sensitive to the term, “ critical thinking “. Usually the pp has this skill and those they disagree with don’t…

I dislike the word "ick".

Never heard nor seen it anywhere other than MN.

I use it quite a lot as an alternative to 'god' when I'm talking to the kids

This fad to describe October, November and December as the "ber" months
Fuck off....

I absolutely hate that 4 letter c word you all seem to love. I flinch n cringe each time I hear it.🤑

Love this! I'm now imagining where it might appear.' "Jesus Christ Connie, we're stuck in Dame Slap's School Land again!' wailed Dick 'We should never have trusted that cunt Moon face'. 'Well if you hadn't been so much of an arse to the Angry Pixie, we'd have been home fucking hours ago' Bessy cut in. The argument was interrupted by another bucket of suds from Dame Washalot's house landing on their heads.'

Moist is a splendid word, one of my favourites. I especially like it in conjunction with the word towelette. Moist towelettes were very popular when I was young.

One word that should be banned is munch or munched. And Jamie Oliver should be prohibited from using turmeric, as he pronounces it 'chewmeric'.

The expression I hate most atm is 'matchy-matchy'. It makes me squirm so much my skin almost falls off. Anyone over the age of five using it should take a long hard look at themselves.

You have to say Cor Blimey.
I also like Blinkin Nora!
I also say Gosh.

'Crowd pleaser', always to be found in a magazine recipe area

Avoid South Wales then!

I'd rather hear someone use the word "gosh" than ick!!!

I get it from people saying 'I get the ick.'

Gosh seems to have really gained popularity on recent years as a substitute for God. It doesn't bother me in the least but I really hate 'tasty'! Completely irrational!

Never heard anyone's outside of Mumsnet say "ick" thank goodness. Bearing in mind it means something that makes you nauseous. Must be some very delicate stomachs.

This makes me laugh - in a good way.

We used to substitute the word “lush” for the word “drunk” — as in, ‘Mrs. Miller* is a lush.”

I don’t know how it started or why or who started it or if it was contained to our small community, but we all used the term.

*Miller is imaginary

Also, irritating twee words and shortenings eg

Cuppa
Choccy biccy
Strawbs
Pots/toms (as in potatoes/tomatoes) - this is particularly prevalent on MN!!
