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


    - So what? Carry on being offended then.

    This I really do agree with. When peopke say "I'm offended" I'm not sure why they think it's all about them!

    What the F-- is that even. I know the urban dictionary definition, but it absolutely does my nut in.
    Bae is second
    Like literally like is third/fourth.

    Basically things people under the age of 20 say.


    Full disclosure: I'm only 29 and far too miserable for my years.

    Bae annoys me too. Did it not turn out to mean 'poo' in Swedish?

    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:
    Bae is tight famo, standard :cool:

    The phrase that annoys me is from the hipsters who shout MOUSETRAP when you say something cool smh!

    Rampant Recycler I've been Money Tipped!
    Ahhh the bought/brought thing gets on my nerves!

    At the moment it's any comments about me expecting twins:
    Double the work!
    Rather you than me!

    Plus, I wish people would stop asking if my pregnancy was planned or if I had IVF. Neither answer is their business!

    What's the difference between planned and IVF? isn't IVF planned? Surely you don't have IVF by accident.
