Hollibobs and Vaycay. Just no!!

... and "Crimbo" for Christmas.

I also dislike the word "staycation" - it sounds so contrived.

Since I’ve just seen it elsewhere, Brits writing ‘cozy’! Honestly makes me way to slap them.

Ditto ‘ass’ when they mean ARSE!
When I’m a dictator all such offenders will be thrown into a rat infested dungeon for a week. 😈

Well I’m also going to be a dictator. Maybe we could join forces as I’m fully in favour of your proposed punishment.

There seems to be a trend of addressing people as "lovely" now. I find it a bit irritatingl.

I also don't like the use of the words passed and passed away instead of died.

I should think interspersing every few words with "like" annoys a lot of people. I suppose in the past people "ummed" instead.

I wouldn't let things like that bother me one little bit!

Agree with comment about “passed” and “passed away”. Hate it.

Going on a journey, instead of being ill.
End of!

'HUBBY' . makes me absolutely cringe.

‘Uni’ for ‘university’ makes me cringe’.

‘Why, oh why?’ is so overblown and dramatic.

Any sentence that ends with ‘Not’ to contradict what has been said. Why not just say what you mean, instead of saying what you don’t mean and contradicting yourself ungrammatically?

Hollibobs and Vaycay. Just no!!

I’m with you on both . Holibobs grinds my teeth

Broken.
People are no longer sad, upset, miserable or even devastated.
They are now always 'broken'

My mother in law used to talk about panties when she meant her very large white knickers. I just thought it was horribly twee. Picky Bits type meals have always been called buffets in our house. My late husband didn't pass or pass away - he died, and he would have been the first to say so.

But I do rather like the idea of all my cats making their way across a rainbow bridge, especially if they were going to wait for me.

I don't like 'merch', as an abbreviation of merchandise.
But I will get used to other, as I have with so many other words over the years.

How did i miss that typo? It should say that I will get used to 'it', not 'other'!

Simples!

I hate the word ‘like’ used regularly in conversation, was on the train the other day and a young woman said something akin to this to whoever was unfortunate enough to be on the other end of her telephone conversation. ‘I like said to her, you know, like, what are saying?’
I also hate convo instead of conversation and ‘laters’ instead of goodbye.

Picky bits in my family is known as a surprise on a plate!

Moist - yuk

‘Bestie’ - at least for anyone over about 7.

‘Pamper’ and pampering - not sure why, except that they’re often associated with spa days and all they entail - from which I would run a mile.

Ditto to ‘panties’! So twee!
And hubby.
Passed and passed away, as euphemisms for ‘died’.

I hate ‘spenny’ for expensive. It just sounds ridiculous.

And why do colours have to pop

Why does a preview always have to be "sneak"?

No one has crisp food, it’s always “crispy”!

On that subject grandMattie why is it no one just wears a white shirt it always has to be crisp white shirt. My white shirts are soft not crisp.
