Just a bit of Friday fun.
The word 'moist' makes my skin crawl
I hate hate hate hate the phrase 'touch base' and also 'date night'
And 'bae' - I mean, what is that?
Anyone else? :rotfl:

'I'm offended by that' or 'I find that offensive'

Pretty much everything that comes out of the mouths of the school kids who get on my bus every morning :mad:
Half of it is the word like with random other words thrown in!
Do you know what I mean like, like I can't like even like take it, it's like so annoying!! :mad:First Date 08/11/2008, Moved In Together 01/06/2009, Engaged 01/01/10, Wedding Day 27/04/2013, Baby Moshie due 29/06/2019 :T0 -
'Moist' is a classic, it's a word that should only ever be used in reference to chocolate cake and is gross in any other context.
'Mummy' annoys me a bit too, not when used by kids but when used by adult women e.g. 'Yummy mummies' or 'I love being a mummy' Why not just say parent? I don't know why, I just find it a bit icky.0 -
To be honest....
To be fair....
Aren't you NORMALLY honest/fair?
My husband is always starting sentences with "So.." which also annoys me.0 -
'totes adorbs'
'No offence but...' what you actually mean is 'I'm being a bit offensive but it's now your fault if you get upset'If having different experiences, thoughts and ideas to you, or having an opinion that you don't understand, makes me a troll, then I am proud to be a 100% crying, talking, sleeping, walking, living Troll. :hello:0 -

My husband telling me 'You're taking it personally' Well, of course I am, it's aimed at me not Mrs Smith down the street. I flippin hate that phrase. :mad:
'bae' stands for 'before anything/anyone else'. I first came across it on some photos my DD was tagged in with her drama friends and captioned. I thought it fitted, so I don't mind it used in that context. If I'd come across it in any other way, I'm sure it would have got on my wick.

Haha, when I had youngest, who isn't quite 13, we changed my car. I had several people, including my sister-in-law say that my husband was buying me a car. No, we (as in our household)were buying a car for me to use. If people wanted to be really nosey about where the cash was coming from, I was saving my maternity allowance to fund the purchase, so strictly speaking I'd bought my own car!pollypenny wrote: »Not so common now, but bumping into some one when at shops:
