    Words that I'd like banned with immediate effect (ie. things my younger sister says):
    • On fleek
    • On point
    • Bae (it means poo, love)
    • Totes emosh
    • abbreevs
    • Squad goals
    • like, as verbal punctuation, like.
    • Fam
    • Turnt
    • Basic, as in: "Oh my GOD, I'm so BASIC"
    • Whut-whut (usually accompanied by a strange hands up, palms out shuffle dance
    • Literally can't cope

    Also, if she tells me one more time that I need to learn how to 'contour' I may lose my sh*t! :D

    Further to this, the sister today told me that she 'ships' something. (Apparently it is another way of saying you like/love/approve of something)
    AND, she started talking about OTP's (Not on time performance) which means 'One True Pairing'.
    Where do they come up with this sh!t?
    19 year olds for you, I guess.

    People who say "the PC brigade" or refer to anyone they disagree with as a brigade. Frequently also use the equally annoying word "sheeple". Spas.

    Can we bring back "spas"? Nobody says that any more

    And 'peeps'...always and forever the f*cking word 'peeps'.

    Keep calm and get it through your head that adding "Keep calm and..." to the start of any sentence does not magically make it hilarious.

    Saw one today:

    "Keep calm and come on Ireland"

    Just fuck off you absolute fucking cunts.

    'Libtard' and 'luvvies' I despise those 2 in particular. Seem to be in use by the prolific online posting crowd who identify themselves as libertarians.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,221 ✭✭✭Greentopia


    Mom.
    We are not Americans ffs. Mam, mum or even mammy if you please.

    Other Americanisms I despise-awesome and feminazi.
