I will scream if one more person says or writes ‘stay safe’

[Redbrickwall]

I’m sick of it! I walk round the supermarket and their sound systems are playing through messages about ‘keeping you safe in our store’. Every email at work is signed ‘stay safe’, Halfords even just sent me a spam email about ‘Staying safe’

Omfg I can’t deal with it anymore!! I remember last year when being safe meant not walking out in front of a car or failing onto a train track, avoiding murderers and not walking home alone in the dark!.

Now all that staying safe means and is measured against is not catching Covid!!! It feels like complete brainwashing

Oh and don’t get me started on ‘Protect the NHS’.

@Ginseng1

So many phrases from this year I cringe when I hear them. I won't drag the whole list out again but you know what they are! Sometimes they spill out of my mouth inadvertantly though 🤭 is like they programmed in my brain.

By this year I mean last year but now becoming this year's too 😭

"mask compliant"

FFS.

"Covid Secure".

@LucilleTheVampireBat

"Covid Secure".

I hate that one!

I had to type the signs that are stuck on walls all over my not remotely covid secure office. I was belting the keyboard for each letter

@LucilleTheVampireBat

"Covid Secure".

Sounds like special continence pants

Yep, I can’t stand that either. To be fair, I’ve also always hated “Be careful!”. Partly because my mother would say it in situations where there was no obvious way of being careful or not (like getting a train in the daytime to a business meeting).
