Not quite as bad though as “the hubster”, or “the wonderful man”. 🤢

Literally, as in “I literally died”. Well no, you didn’t.

My MIL once said "I was literally having kittens". The mental image still haunts me.

‘Not’ when used as in ‘I love cuddling sharks. Not.’ Why not just say ‘I don’t love cuddling sharks.’? It’s so affected.

SO. Not when it’s used correctly, obviously, but when it’s said at the start of a response.

Eg, “What did you do yesterday?”
“So we got up early……etc

I could scream!

‘Uni’

If we can have phrases, I’ll go for ‘thrown under the bus’ and ‘on its knees’.

HUBBY. yuk. Nails down a black board.

Agreed. It was only when I came on this site that I realised some people actually used it seriously, not as a joke.

Turned round in conversation as in “ and he turned round and said xxxx and then his wife turned round and said xxx “.
