To really hate the term "jog on"

[Trillian]

It really grates on me, and it seems to be the mumsnet phrase of the week....

Can people not think of a grown up thing to say.

/waits for someone to tell me to jog on

Not as bad as 'suck it up' though!

very aggressive phrase.

I think its an awesome phrase.
On a par with 'go in the corner and have a word with yourself'

Have you seen RocknRolla? There is a great scene when one character tells someone to 'Go on, jog on, walk on, goodbye, bon voyage, f*ck off'.

I can't help but love it.

I like "stroll on"

I've never heard it before - obviously don't spend enough time on here.....

YANBU to hate the term 'jog on'.

YABU to mention it when there is an active thread in which another MNer uses the phrase in her OP.

I like "Fuck the fuck off. And fuck off again when you get there". But I am a horrible person.

I have used that one at least 10 times this week, BoF

(I find myself wondering whenever I come across a new and inventive way of swearing- "is it Mumsnet, or Malcolm Tucker?"- I'm still not sure about that particular one)

as for 'jog on'- does anyone remember that horrible Big Brother "couple" a few years ago- he was a cockernee fella (possibly pretend) and she was an Asian racist (iirc?- it was a looooong time ago so I might be wrong)- anyway, he said it all the time and it put me right off

i think it grates because its so dismissive , like 'i dont care what you think/say, just piss off'
and that attitude has no place on a public forum. except for raving mad trolls though.

It's entirely appropriate on some threads though.

Malcolm Tucker election briefing thread

I'd never heard the phrase before an hour ago, but read it on two separate threads since then.

For dismissiveness, I think "off you fuck then dearie" takes some beating .

OP, are you the same poster as TrillianAstra?

yanbu
up there with "get a grip"

For some reason I associate this phrase with Pricey Kate.

I too hate jog on.....even heard it on a cbbc program(with the babies with adult heads) I thought it was 'fuck off'.

I love 'off you fuck'.

UnquietDad LOL

Spidermama, which onew?

UnquietDad, is that because you would like to watch her jog on ????

No I am not TrillianAstra that is someone else.

I like a good old go forth and multiply

Trillian - far from it!

I told someone to 'trot on' (under my breath),well she was hanging around outside my house looking at my prize winning hydrangeas

I knew a woman that used it in RL. She was quite 'plummy', horsey and from a very proper family, ex Army sorts with a few old Generals in previous generations. She used to say it to her husband in a very dismissive way - she was actually horrible to him.

I dislike it.
