Words and phrases that give you the rage light hearted

[NimbleHiker]

What phrases do you hate? It gives me the rage when my mum says put up and shut up. I know that some things are not within my control and that i have to do things i don't like.

Perhaps we should go back to calling it a cold collation, as the Victoria's did.

@CoffeeCantata until such day, I think I prefer your selection of small items which you eat without cutlery
”Will there be picky bits?”
”No. But there will be a selection of small items which you eat without cutlery.”
”I’m starving. What are we having for dinner tonight?”
”I can’t really be bothered. I’m just going to take a selection of small items which you eat without cutlery out of the fridge.”
”You’ve lost loads of weight! How?!”
”Oh I don’t cook any more. I just eat from a selection of small items which you eat without cutlery.” ™️©️

'My bad', particularly when that's all tjat is said...as if that is some sort of apology and makes it all okay.

“… and there’s the rub” when describing something awkward, not quite as straightforward or as smooth as you’d like. It makes me shudder physically when reading it because it conjures up memories of being forced to put all my hair into a tight, rubbery 1980s swim cap which bloody hurt!

I said this earlier - tab nabs. It’s used in the Merchant Navy. I always think it just sounds like what it is.

Use your words.
Big girl pants.
Date night.

THIS!!!!! I used to think I was going mad because NO ONE uses it correctly!!

Hack instead of tip

😂😂

Choisir des morceaux?

You have two choices. No you don't , you have a choice, two or more options.

I always thought tab nabs referred to cakes and such like whereas I associate "picky bits" with a savoury scratch meal.

Technically, it does, but any ship I’ve been on it’s been applied to any type of snack type meal. In particular, the more casual Sunday buffet to allow kitchen and mess staff time off.

Totally agree with thus. So annoying when, on noticing me, says quizzically "are you alright?"
I feel like saying - no I'm a but depressed today!

I HATE when people refer to a cold drink as "cold and wet! It Knocks me sick. I feel like saying to them you should be damned ashamed of yourself for saying those words out loud 😒😒😒

“It is what it is” - hate this with a passion.

Wholesome - 😬
Iconic - 🙄
Powerful - 🙄🙄🙄

Wasn’t it great when we just had other words and used them?! Now everyone, esp’ on tv (the one show) sticks to a ridiculous narrow minded script.

Also - Oh Gosh and Oh my days

Oh do F off 🙄

I've always said gosh. That's wrong?

"Adorable" but pronounced adorable

How else should it be pronounced?

A new one on me: crunchy. "We're a crunchy family!"

Connie what's a crunchy family?

Home-educating, organic vegan, anti-vaxxers, clothes made entirely of tie-dyed hemp. That kind of thing.
