A Phrase People Use That You Just Can't stand!

Bruh. POV. Slay...We asked, you answered… and honestly, we laughed, cringed, and on the vast majority of comments, we could not agree more! There’s nothing like a perfectly horrible phrase to make your eye twitch, your jaw clench, and your soul whisper"I’m done here." Whether it’s corporate jargon, "deep" Insta mantras, or things your teenager says, we have compiled our favourite responses from a recent Facebook post! So, grab a wine and enjoy our top 20 Phrases People Use These Days That You Can Not Stand!!

1. "It is What it Is"
   But is it? Or are you too lazy to fix this shit up? Or find another solution! With 223 Inappropriate friends also agreeing, this is a top phrase that makes people want to tear their hair out!
2. "My Pronouns are..." 
   Although controversial, 559 of you loved, commented, and gave the thumbs up that this phrase might be getting a little overused in 2025.
3. "My Bad"
   This one is an oldie, but it seems to be as annoying as ever with 312 people agreeing that the bad grammar is as offensive as whatever the idiot using this term is 'apologising' for. 
4. "I'm Obsessed"
   Because apparently we can’t just ‘like’ things anymore, we need to use a rage-inducing phrase in the hopes that followers will buy the obsessively good product, so said influencer can get paid. Have we told you lately we are "Obsessed" with The Inappropriate Gift Co's "Fucky McFuckface Duck"! "Buy Now" "Buy Now"!
   
   
5. "I was Today Years Old"
   Ok, so you found some shit out today that you should have probably pieced together 20 years ago! Just say, look what the fuck I found out today! 
6. "Teamwork Makes The Dream Work"
   A lot of you agreed with this one. Is it still been thrown around McDonald's? Please tell me this isn't a corporate phrase! If so they might want to "Circle Back" on that one and come up with something a little more motivating!
7. "Moving Forward"
   Another way of saying in the corporate world, "let's leave this dumpster fire of a situation behind us, and move the fuck on before anyone gets fired!" 
8. "Like"
   It was cool when Cher from Clueless used it, but "Moving Forward"...some 29 years later, our FB friends would like us to call time on this phrase! Just get your mother fucking works out and stop stalling with "Likes". 
   
9. "The Wife"
   The Cat, The Couch, The TV. Such an endearing team for the love of your life! The keeper of your sanity, most likely the mother of your children (or fur babies), and probably the only person willing to sleep with you in a 100km radius, we agree, Husbands, find a better phrase! 
10. "Fur Baby"
    Yeah, we just used this term 🤣...but a lot of you agree this phrase is one that makes you cringe, although there was a bit of support for this phrase too. Perhaps it could use a freshen up, here are our suggestions; Four-legged tax deduction, Unemployed emotional support life coach, Tiny freeloading dictator or Barketing Manager, please feel free to add any suggestions in the comments! 
    
11. "We did a Thing"
    We don't flocking care that you did anything! But if you desperately want to share, please just get to the fucking point..."We bought a house, We had a swinger's party, We got divorced" etc...just cut to the chase people, we're all busy these days! 
12. "Tell Me You Don't/Do without Telling Me You Don't/Do"
    Tell me you don't have an original thought without telling me you don't have an original thought.
    A phrase that started as clever, then it got beaten to death by influencers, resurrected by TikTok, and now shows up in every third Facebook post like a zombie. Anyone got any new ideas out there? 
    
13. "I'm Offended"
    

    Yep, we've heard this one waaay too many times 😬🤣. Personally, we prefer the ancient art of the “Unfollow,” but hey, if you must type “I’m offended” instead, go for it. Let the comment battle royale begin. May the wittiest, pettiest, and most passive aggressive warrior win.
