Words you don't like, please, ladies?

I also don't like the expression 'belly ache' which my husband uses a lot! I'm not sure why but it always makes me cringe!

The one beginning with f that some people seem to think is compulsory to use in every sentence.

And it drives me mad when women "fall pregnant" Makes no sense.

I know my late husband either referred to me by my Christian name or 'my wife'. I loved and appreciated him for this.

How rude is Anya.

Both words I hate have already been mentioned by others, panties, and fart. Both make me shudder.

I don't like the word/expression 'shite' as in 'it's a load of shite'. Horrible!

Pustule or cyst, anyone?
Also widely disliked, apparently.

Old fasioned rather than unpleasant I'd have said.

I dislike the word 'chortle' as it sounds fat and reminds me of Billy Bunter!

Online lists include the word "slacks" as most disliked.
Its quite unpleasant, I think.

I quite like expressions and words that seem to annoy people. I like "cheerio!" and "rightio"

furbabies is a definite dislike of mine. Adults who refer to their parents as mummy and daddy. I agree "fell pregnant" is silly - makes me think the woman fell down, the man fell on top of her and she was suddenly pregnant!!

Oh dear, a couple of people have mentioned gobsmacked. I use it quite a lot. Note to self...

I do quite like the resurrection of Oh my gosh. And Oh my days makes me smile as well. And anything with -ster added, though that will probably start to grate if it goes on too long.

Pubes. DD2 and I both had babies born face up. With me they called it back to back, with her it was face to pubes. Yuck.

Hate ' passed away or on or over' for 'died' people who say harASSED when they mean HARassed. Spag Bol.
definitely panties- porn expression that men use.
Partner for a lover or boy/girlfriend, wish there was a nicer expression to mean the same thing. I've been with someone for 18 years, not married but hate 'partner' which I associate with businesses.
'guys' when I'm out with my 'partner' and a young waiter/ress addresses us both.
Oh my gosh! when people mean, oh my god!
Many many more but enough for now

I haven't read through all the 134 posts (so far) so I may be repeating someone else, but gobsmacked is a word I loathe

In French "Puce" means "flea". With French as my first language, I used to be very puzzled as a child....

NfkDumpling I do like the word "Mauve", but often wonder why the word "Puce" dropped out of common usage; was it because we stopped using puce pencils?

Havemercy how do you feel about the phrase " the hubster"? I see it being used more and more on forums.

I can't stand the word "hubby" - silly I know.

"Gifting" instead of "giving". What will the next stage be; giftizing?

(And I like coming out mauve - I can spot where I last left a conversation.)

Snog. It takes all the romance out of kissing.

And cup cakes and muffins. Cup cakes are buns for goodness sake, and these enormous over-iced things with too much raising agents bear no resemblance to proper muffins!

The other day on a 'buy/sell' site I saw a man had made an offer on some goods and was enquiring when he could 'uplift' them. What's wrong with pick them up? Also this new saying of 'year on year' instead of year after year.

'Alot' is pre programmed into my phone's predictive text, which surprised me.

I loathe the word "telly". It is a television or tv. Mind you I went to grammar school and everything had to be perfect, in those days.

I can't stand the word tummy when used by an adult instead of stomach or abdomen I sounds so childish! I also detest people saying gotten instead of got or spelling programme with one m and no e???

I don't like how people say "for me" - example "if you could just put your signature there for me".
