These responses made me LOL! I agree with a lot of them and also hate seeing "...all the things" like "eat all the things...", amazeballs, shamazeballs etc.
-
This is cracking me up! I didn't know I disliked so many words until I read this and found myself thinking "I hate that one too!!" with almost every new comment!
I am amazed by the number of people who dislike "moist"...I guess I've never really thought about it.I do not like "tinkle" in reference to needing to use the bathroom.
-
@Cherrybee: "Panini (because it's food but it sounds like lady bits)" LITERALLY made me laugh out loud. At my desk. In my office. Whoops.
-
I hate it when people say:
Oh how did we all turn out ok although we never had *insert something (i.e. RF carseats)*Arrrrgggg, if we all thought like that mankind would still be living in caves...
-
@Cherrybee: I have never heard "scrote"! Terrible/kind of hilarious.
Agree with "boob monster" being god-awful, too. Honestly, any cutesy euphemisms for breasts re: breastfeeding annoy me/gross me out.
-
I hate when people say "Wally-Mart" instead of Wal-Mart and "Timmies" instead of Tim Hortons!
-
Boobies, unless you are a child saying it, same thing with weiner Women have breasts, men have a penis.
-
@IRunForFun: omgggg. I completely agree. you are not a "mahselfs" you are a person!!
@Pumuckl: same!!! people in the way olden days didn't have a lot of things, and guess what, they died. ok that's a little dramatic, but still. lol.

Cool beans -
hahahahahahh this thread cracks me up.
-
This thread is great! Let me add:
Hilar instead of hilarious....my SIL uses this all the time
The word/reference 'schwetty'. Ewwwww.
Pronouncing 'schedule' like 'shedjule'.
Any purposeful misspellings
Dumb, slow or retarded to refer to anyone with a disability -
Texts like this: "R U coming cuz we R waiting 4 U"
-
@redsmarties: schwetty balls! hahahaha (grosses me out too)
-
@mrsrain: derp??? I don't know that one.
@Rubies: Cluster-- really???
@redsmarties: I hate purposeful misspellings (i.e. Kountry Kitchen)...unless I'm trying to get something out phonetically, as in "Whaddya know?"
I kind of get into colloquialisms...but "totes adorbs" is grating. Seems like a lot of this (except moist, which is universal, and "gay" or "retarded" for stupid, which is in bad taste) is just generational? Maybe?
-
@FliegepilzHut: I think it might be- my SIL uses a lot of these ALL the time. So do all of her friends.
-
The worst one for me is FML. "Aw man I dropped the last two bites of my sandwich on the floor, FML!" Seriously?!
-
@redsmarties: people say schedule like that?!
@@arden: I'm also not a fan of "lady bits!" I think it's too cutesy.
-
@Happygal: yes! Particularly older people, or I think it might also be a British thing. It's ok if you're British. Otherwise you just sound funny.
-
These are both work-y things I guess but "area of opportunity" (just say something is going wrong or is bad!) and "personal brand." Don't get me started on personal brands.
-
Ma-tour instead of mature (muh-chur).
-
I'm not gonna lie.
All flanged up.
Orientated.
I'm sure I have more.And... What is Yolo???
-
LOL when used seemingly at random (are you laughing out loud? or at all? then why are you writing LOL?)
I can barely type "moist" without wanting to scrub myself down.
And the phrase "I just threw up a little in my mouth." DISGUSTING. STOP. -
@JennyD: bahahaha I say I won't lie allllll the time.
-
@redsmarties:
you know, I think I hear "bits" used in cooking a lot. So there's also a weird food-genital thing going on.@JennyD: You only live once!
@Elderberrygin: LOL over usage is the pits.
-
@redsmarties: Awwww, the Schweddy balls SNL skit is hilarious!
I hate pudding as in "the proof is in the pudding".
@JennyD: I think it's you only live once. I thought SMH was "so much hate" for the longest time, lol!
-
@Happygal:
So guilty.
-
@Espion: it's ok. We're still friends.
I like a lot of things that people hate here!
-
@Mrs. Jump Rope: whyyyyyyyyy! Are you 13?
-
@Happygal: thanks! I'm bad with the acronym lingo.
-
@JennyD: no but I didn't know teens used the phrase! It was popular when I was growing up and it stuck.
-
@Espion: oh it's funny!! Just makes me cringe!
-
@Mrs. Jump Rope: hahahaha. So funny.
I remember when everyone said "that sucks" and my mom hated it. And I thought she was so not cool. And now I have a nephew who says "that's sick". And I hate it. And I'm not cool.
-
I don't think I've ever heard anyone over the age of 16 (rough estimate, haha) use words like "totes" or "jelly"....sounds like a Clueless throwback to me!
Internet-speak drives me crazy as well. I used to have a younger colleague who would use "dun" for "do not/don't" in (professional) emails. I had to explain to her that it was NOT ok.
-
"Little man". Can't. Stand. It. Gives me the big time heebie jeebies.
-
The funniest thing about this thread is that everyone one on here is guilty or saying some of these Irksome things! So I guess we are all just annoying! I say and do a lot of these things and yet I also find certain things totally irksome. when people say " "That awkward moment when..." Or any mention of being crazy about shoes, handbags or "fabulous"
But I also find this thread a bit guilt inducing because so many people I like a lot use these terms and I wouldn't want to make them feel bad or feel bad if I say things that irk them.
-
@redsmarties: Yeah, I say lady bits!! I also say lady garden (and lady paving if its, y'know...?!
). But I say it with my voice slightly lowered and a mortified look on my face, as is my British way, so its all good! Oh and I say "upstairs... lady....umm.... bits" and gesture to my, y'know, those things up there....! Oh, another one I hate: swag. I don't speak to many people with swag, but when I do I say "Big Mac please".
-
Lots of good ones on here, and ones I'm guilty of saying, too! To each her own, I guess... But I thought of 2 more that I can't stand:
'I love me some....'
Saying 'shut up!' when surprised. Ugh.
-
Preggo/preggers
Overuse of the word "pop", as in "wanted to add a pop of colour or make my outfit pop"
Nom nom, or any variation of that
Timmys/wally world/crappy tire (Canadian specific I guess! And, I really dislike all three stores)
Cray instead of crazy
Fam jam... just say family!! -
@Cherrybee: your whole list is so hilarious to me because I've never heard any of those things!
@MCD919: I do both of those
-
@MrsTiz: Really?? That has made me smile! I need to think of some more for you!!
So guilty.
