Any words or phrases that you can't stand?

It is what it is
Everything happens for a reason
Calling a group of people you guys
Groups of women that call themselves girls

Hmmm, I use hubby often. I see it as endearing and less formal than husband. Didn't realize it could cause any grating of teeth.

It's etymology is from 17th century; a familiar form of the word husband. Won't change my ways...

When two ten year olds serving in a local shop responded to my rummaging around for my purse with 'Aww, Bless' - are they clergy in disguise? No! No! No!

Sentences beginning so...........

My pet hate is .....so what!

Using the word 'watched' instead of looked after, eg 'I watched the DGC until they started school.'

The unnecessary or incorrect use of amazing, awesome and literally.

I'm afraid that I regularly use many of the phrases that others loathe. "Going to the toilet" is one of them although I do usually say loo. In many cases if I asked to go to the bathroom I would end up in a bathroom that does not have a toilet when what I want is the toilet.

My most loathed phrase is - my bad.

I've remembered another one - 'it was hysterical', instead of 'hilarious'.

I’m with Luckylegs. I hate basically ...... especially starting every other sentence !!

The use, lamentably often, of 'prodigal' to mean 'returning.
It does not mean returning.

Insightful instead of the perfectly good English word 'perceptive'.

'brackish' (water) to mean dirty. It means a mixture of salt and fresh, so unless you've nipped to the estuary to fill a bucket, the water in it isn't brackish.

'Bear with...' Even 'please bear with me' is bad enough.
'Long time no see' ugh.
'Kudos' used as a single word and 'hats off to you.'

I thought 'curate' simply meant 'taken care of' ? So a curated collection of pottery pigs would make me grunt into my trough.

A 'cheeky' Nando's/or whatever else is cheeky!

We had a 'proper' good laugh/good time.

off of

gotten

Autumnal ... Don't know why, it just irritates me! Why not just Autumn? Autumn weather/leaves/etc. We don't say Winteral/Summeral/Springal.

'Random' when talking about doing something unplanned!!!!

Oh and the expression 'Robust going forward' what ever that means!!!

Can't stand when a pregnant lady states that 'I'm about to drop it". A very uncouth phrase I would say.

People who say was when grammatically it should be were, it really annoys me every time
