Please don’t think I’m here to complain about rizz or skibidi toilet etc. Thats all fine by me.
The term I dislike strongly is ‘eeeh’ before you make a statement disagreeing with someone. (This is over text only). Now maybe I’ve been pavloved bc it’s always used by someone disagreeing. But I’m happy with people disagreeing with me normally its just the ‘eeeh’ or ‘erm’ that annoys me.
So what’s a random term that annoys you?
PS. Saying “eeeh actually ‘eeh’ is a perfectly fine term” would be a ridiculously easy joke and I will judge you for making it. And I know atleast one person will. Especially bow that I’ve said all this.
I unreasonably hate the word “moreover”. I see no reason why you wouldn’t use the words “also” or even “furthermore” that sound way better when read.
You would have hated my highschool essays

Upskill. I’m not ‘upskilling’ someone, I’m training them.
I’m allergic to corpospeak in general.
Can we sync on that real quick? I think we can ideate on some quick wins for your allergy that’ll get you unblocked.
I do the “eh” thing sometimes without thinking about it but I agree with you, I don’t like being on the other end of it either. I’m trying to work on that
GINORMOUS
on the same note, “guesstimate”
Supermassive?
Black hole
The corporate overenthusiasm “LET’S FUCKING GOOOOO”.
Ugh. Sure, maybe the product launch went great, but still. Ugh.
Any corporation or even companies social media account being memey is annoying.
I just hate it when people try to elongate the word GO with more Os.
It’s now a new word. It’s GOO. Any further Os just make it gooier, not goier.
Can we just mean corporate speak in general. I can’t fucking stand all the buzzwords that get tossed around
Places using “gluten-friendly” to mean “gluten-free”. I am gluten-UNfriendly. I do not want gluten. They’ve tried to be cute and actually managed to make the term mean the opposite of what it’s supposed to.
I bake a lot of bread, including for my coeliac stepmother, so I’ve taken to labelling the loaves gluten-free and gluten-expensive
Yeah wouldn’t it be “celiac-disease-haver-friendly”?
You would think! 😅
Trump, Zuckerberg, Musk, Gates…
Kevin Gates?
Do you often look out your window and see everything you dream about and wish you had?
People using double negatives incorrectly. Like “I didn’t do nothing!”
I didn’t do no nothing wrong now, didn’t I?
You don’t deserve your existence
I’m afraid to say I kind of like that, although don’t particularly use it much.
I’m so pleased to hear you admit that you did it. Your honesty is appreciated.
I ain’t talkin to nobody without my lawyer!
Enshitification
A meaningless buzzword made up by nostalgia blinded millennials.
Also Saint Patty’s day. God dam plastic paddies.
Unfortunately, enshittification is very real. Many of us are here because of the enshittification of reddit.
The only thing worse than people misusing the term ‘enshittification’ are people who criticise that but can’t be bothered to get their facts straight.
No, it’s not a meaningless buzzword. And no, it was not made up by nostalgic millennials. It would have taken you a mere minute of online research to figure that out yourself.
People thinking their clever by making up words that already have a meaning.
“Lawfare” meaning chargingnrich white assholes for the crime they committed
“Disinformatsiya” or however libs spelled it to mean pointing out the hypocrisy of American nationalists.
“Sanewashing” to describe media putting their thumb on the scale for the fascist who wants to cut their taxes.
It implies it’s a new phenomenon and not just the current version of whatever propoganda apparatus has been chugging along for decades.
Liberals complain about “sanewashsing” and then in the same breath talk about how cheyney and bush weren’t exactly the fucking same as Trump.
“Solidarity” as it’s too often used to make others do things you want.
What, like not be a transphobic piece of shit?
New bot dropped: Transphobia count bot. Goes thru the modlog and counts amount of times they’ve been moderated for transphobia
I am making a list with all my bots for when I learn computersOkay that is a really good one. We should implement that asap
Ideas guy strikes again. I’ll return in 18 months once I’ve learned how to type on a keyboard with more than one finger
So many things. In written form, I hate when someone writes “Period.” after they make a point to mean “this can’t be argued” or whatever. My good bitch, I don’t think you understand how arguing works. 😆
“Full stop” is a close second.
It’s a perfectly valid way to win an argument, end of sentence.
Ha serves me right ✌🏻
“Hands down”
Yes ugh 😩
Q.E.D.
Q👏E👏D👏
That’s fine as long as you don’t spell out the periods. 😆
By the by, I’d love to be the guy with the confidence to end an argument with “thus it is proven”. That’d be epic. I think I’ve only ever used QED humorously or ironically.
If you don’t have the periods it could just be someone saying qed really loud
Would that be pronounced KED or KWED I wonder? Or maybe just a large belch. 😆
“Not me” doing something.
Just say you’re doing something, and accept that it may be a bit hypocritical or shameful that you’re doing it.
But that is them accepting it.
The question was “what word or phrase annoys you,” not “do you understand this phrase.”
I know what the phrasing means, it still bugs the shit out of me.
Not a term, but a lack thereof:
People I have to regularly interact with for work have been excluding “to be”, especially with “needs”, and it’s infuriating.
This issue needs escalated. That report needs fleshed out. Let me know if anything needs cleared up.
To quote Shakespeare, “Or not?”
My brother-in-law says the dishes “need washed” and it’s nails on a goddamn chalkboard every time I hear it.
Those sound so wrong
