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.

Hubby.

draw for drawer
anytime anyone refers to words or things as "American"
Do y'know what I mean
Me duck

Guys. (To a mixed crowd, or even all females? Wtf?)
I'm not a fucking guy,
But I’m not keen on ‘peeps’ either.

I work in retail. There seems to be a trend at the moment for people to say ‘thanking you’ instead of a simple ‘thank you’ . Hate it. But it’s better than no thanks at all!

This made me laugh.

"Obviously" when it's absolutely not obvious.
"No offence" when it's definitely offensive.
"Swings roundabouts".

Anyone saying REsearch, instead of reSEARCH. Which includes virtually all radio/TV ads for charities, except GOSH, so hats off to them, and yes, I have made a donation.

Man up

Gotten in any phrase unless you are American

Bin it off (ex-husband loved saying this - binned him off!)

anything ending in “hun”

Parents saying their tiny babies ‘eat’ every so many hours or several ounces of formula at each feed.

No. Young babies don’t ‘eat’. They drink milk.

Slick back bun. It's slicked back.

Pack lunch. It's packed lunch.

Brought a house. No. You bought a house. Can't even blame that one on a type.

Plutonic friends.

Pacifically.

I could care less.

Incorrect use of fiancé/fiancée.

Being on tenderhooks.

Putting someone on a pedalstool.

Giving someone your upmost respect.

I think I'll stop there haha.

Potty shot 🤢

When people use LOL inappropriately.

'Having the worst day ever. My neighbour ran over my dog, and I was l sexually assaulted on the tube. LOL.'

Hubby and picky bits make me shudder.

“Not my circus not my monkeys.” Hate it

Starting almost every sentence with 'so', when it doesn't need it?
hubby

Kindly / be kind

TIA

"For my sins..."

I should of…
I was sat/stood…

British people using American sports idioms.

'I was sat' - is not the same as ‘seated’ or ‘sitting’. In strict grammar, ‘I was sat’ is a passive, it means someone else sat you down, the way you would seat a small child. ‘I was sitting’ is active, it means you sat yourself down. What’s happening now is that people are dropping the past participle and using the simple past instead, so ‘I was sat’ is being used where ‘I was sitting’ should be. It’s become so common that many people think it’s correct, but it isn’t in standard English.

Referring to clothes as pieces. It’s just so flipping pretentious.

I'm a teacher and hearing pupils say 'It's math next lesson' makes me irrationally irritated.

The trouble with ‘picky bits’- and I understand completely, it’s so twee — is that there isn’t really a decent alternative .
‘Nibbles’ is just as bad, IMO. ‘Starters’ might not fit the bill either, and nor might ‘snacks.’
Any suggestions?

Grim. Why are the posts always negative? How about what words do you like?

It's very grim on here.
Same as tell me about your worse neighbours. The posters mind goes to that automatically rather than tell me about your nice neighbours.
