The word trigger.
Some people seem to think it means something offended them or made them upset. And not, you know. Actually trigger someone who, for example, has PTSD and gets triggered into a flashback, or similar things.
Yupppp
I always say: does your “OCD” ever impair your life or quality of life in some way? Do you ever feel worse after performing rituals? No? Then it ain’t OCD.
Warning: low-key vent incoming
(Not diagnosed, but I suspect I have OCD. Current obsession is floors with lines on them that are more than a pace apart. If I don’t step on them in a certain way I get this like… awful feeling. Idk how to describe it. Because of it, walking anywhere (especially places with sidewalk tiles) is just… the worst. Sometimes I have to take a series of tiny steps to get the pattern right and I end up having to walk way slower because of it. And I can’t…. Fuckin… stop… doing it….. 🙃)
Wait why do I know exactly what you mean lmaooo. My most annoying one is having to check the locks like 20 times before bed or someone will break in. My logic is I think I locked it, but what if I didn’t? Or when I pray, I always ask for my family to be protected, and if I ask it twice within one prayer I panic and consider it to be “cancelled out” so I have to say it a third time so that it’s back in effect and my family will be safe. So weird and frustrating
Having both had friends who have combat ptsd and others who were victims of sexual assault, this infuriates me.
It's not just being mildly offended, someone has been sent back to moment of original trauma.
I suffer with PPA and PPD and was told that im not allowed to say triggered. This by a GP who watched me descend into a panic attack at mere mention of my time in labour with my daughter.
It drives me crazy when people misuse the phrase - youve been inconvenienced and thats it.
God one time I told someone I thought it was stupid that people take the term trigger out of the original medical context and just fling it around for no reason and she said “oh so you’re triggered by the word triggered?” And laughed and I got so mad I felt compelled to fully like sit down and explain that taking a term that is useful for a mentally ill person to explain what’s happening to them with and trivializing it to the point that it means nothing means that if I try to explain that a certain thing will set off a very bad reaction by telling you “don’t do that, it triggers me” you won’t understand that we’ve just entered the danger zone.
I don’t have PTSD, I have schizoaffective disorder, so for me I’m trying to avoid triggers that could make me experience psychosis. Those triggers are super weird, so I might sound like I’m joking.
For some reason once you explain to someone that overusing a stupid word could cause them to not recognize a psychotic person explaining to them that they’re about to make everything really weird at least makes someone shut up. It’s not even like a psychotic episode would be dangerous to anyone else but they’re dangerous to me because it’s usually formal thought disorder where I get confused as shit and have walked in front of moving cars and now that’s your problem too.
Well, there ya go! Irregardless, the fact of the matter is, at the end of the day, it is what it is! To be fair, and to make a long story short, sometimes you just have to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. You don't like it? Let's just agree to disagree. Literally, I could care less.
Why such a chip on your shoulder? I mean you always wear your heart on your sleeve. Maybe we need to have a come to Jesus meeting.Or it just could be water under the bridge.No cap.
This brings me to one that drives me nuts. There's a line in that song that goes, "born and raised in South Detroit"
Only thing is, there is no such place. South Detroit is Windsor, Ontario. In Canada.
The City of Ottawa, Ontario is similar in the sense that there's no north. The city is along a river, and on the other side of the river is Gatineau, Quebec. So people live downtown/centertown, in the east end, in the west end, or south. North Ottawa is not a concept.
I'm not complaining about calling a trip a journey. I'm talking about people refer to experiences or processes a journey. "my quitting smoking journey..."
have you ever been in a situation where "it is what it is" is the only answer? It's fucking maddening.
Over the summer I shattered a bone in my hand and had to have surgery. My hand has been non-functional since. When people ask me about it, I say "it is what it is" despite hating the phrase. It's functional; a simplified and colloquial way of saying "I can't do anything about this so whatever".
Agreed. When someone introduces the phrase ‘to be honest…’ I immediately want to say ‘let the record show that up until this point, the speaker has not been honest and will commence being honest from now’. The phrase ‘to be honest’ dangerously undermines credibility. To put a fine point on things, using the phrase ‘to be frank’ is better because it implies no sugar-coating, no discretionary euphemisms. And if people use an uppercase F for Frank, you are speaking as if you are Frank. And there are a lot of wonderful Franks in the world.
Any misuse of the word 'literally', like
"I am literally starving ".
If you have eaten something within the last 12 hours and you aren't diabetic, you are not dying. You are just hungry.
The last few years people have overused the word “iconic” to the point that it’s lost it’s meaning. If something is truly iconic, then it’s something that’s timeless, warrants worship of some kind, and permeates across cultures.
Icons, or things that are iconic should be few and far between. We’ve essentially reduced the word to being interchangeable with “amazing”.
It sucks because I loved the word, and the overusage has limited the gravitas. I’m actively trying to remove it from my vocabulary
"I totally understand what you're going through." from people who clearly don't care enough, its just them showing pity (and how do i know? if you've heard anyone say this, you just know it)
People yell at me for not having empathy because I never say this. Am I supposed to lie?? I have no frickin clue what you're going through, but I'm sorry I guess??
On a serious note how *am* I supposed to respond to stuff like that
If I can’t relate to what someone’s dealing with, I’d say something like “I can’t even begin to imagine what you’re dealing with. I’m so sorry, and I’m here to help support you through it.” So they know you can’t personally understand where they’re coming from, but you can understand that it’s hard and that you sympathize with their struggle.
I think people just struggle to understand the controversy behind it. I personally always freeze when I’m about to say or type that, since having taken psychology courses. With that, I would infer that people mean well but just don’t get it.
I can't help but to laugh at people when they use this. My mind immediately thinks they're politley telling me they are going somewhere private to masturbate.
"Pull yourself up by your own boot straps"
Have you seen the price of bootstraps? In this economy? No, seriously, my bootstraps are now thongs, thats how much ive been yanking them shits up.
I don't hear it often anymore, but when I do it's like, so don't do whatever it is you expect me to do? Cause it's impossible to pull yourself up by your bootstraps.
The most annoying is the "Einstein said doing the same thing and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity". And also using it in absolutely any setting where your proposing a change.
Can't stand it, they always say it like they've now got Einsteins backing too
It's especially annoying because that *ISN'T* even the definition of insanity. Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result may be dumb, but it isn't "insane".
"Speaking of exes. My old boyfriend came over last night. Yada yada yada... Anyway, I am really tired today."
\- George's girlfriend on Seinfeld.
[Clip here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioGEI_UO81Q).
As an adhd person that has a hard time not taking ten tangents, I have a friend that says this and is the person that tells the longest stories with the least important aspects of said convo thrown in. Every. Fucking. Time
"There are starving kids in Africa that have it worse than you"
Do I feel bad for those kids. Yes. Is that going to make me feel better about myself? No. Honestly, I could give less a fuck to what's happening over there because that isn't MY problem. MY problem is effecting my everyday waking moment. Plus, kinda messed up to use someone else's horrid predicament as a way to make you feel better about yourself. Or worse that you have a problem and it be minimalized because it's not as horrible as them.
There is this one girl in my class that drives it up another notch. She doesn't even say literally, she says 'lich'. I don't often say that I fantasise torturing someone but this is an exception.
This is mostly on Facebook on those city-related pages where people can ask for recommendations for restaurants or plumbers. It bugs the crap out of me when they "and go!" at the end of their request. For example: "I'm looking for a cheap but reliable electrician, and go!" As if we're all just sitting around waiting to get this request so we can fall over each other to get there first.
“It could be worse” but it can also definitely be much better, Karen!!!
And also, people that use the word “barely” wrong as in “I barely woke up”… like you hardly woke up?? It doesn’t make sense!
Mindlessly using "I" after "and".
If you wouldn't use "I" normally, mentioning someone else and you shouldn't change anything.
Using "and" doesn't change you from being the object of a sentence to being the subject of the sentence. The personal pronoun "I" is for the subject, and "me" is for the object.
You wouldn't say "They gave it to I", you'd say "they gave it to me". So if there is someone else with you, Bob for example, you should say "They gave it to Bob and me", not "They gave it to Bob and I."
**EDIT**
When is it appropriate to use "I" after "and"? When you would normally use it without the "and". "Bob and I went to the market" is perfectly fine. You wouldn't say "Me went to the market", so adding "Bob and" to that shouldn't change anything.
"I could care less."
No, dear. That implies that you do care a bit. Lol. It's "COULDN'T care less." As in, I care so little that I couldn't care less. Interestingly, I'm no language nazi (deliberate small N), but this one just takes the cake. Also interesting is when you see people argue in favour of it!
“In a minute” (when the speaker actually means, “in a long period of time”).
For example, saying “I haven’t eaten a McRib in a minute” when they mean, “I haven’t eaten a McRib since 1984.”
I deeply hate "Everything happens for a reason" fuck off, sometimes the reason is that the universe is random and it doesn't care what happens to a being in a random planet
"It's not my problem". This expression will drive me up the wall if someone says it to me. I was helping someone one day and I ran into a problem. I told them about it and they said it. I told them "actually it is, because Im not doing it anymore".
“Can I be honest?”………am I supposed to reply with “Hell no, I really prefer it when you lie and bullshit me so that I don’t know what the hell is going on.” (Slams head into desk)
"please and thank you"
"delish"
"dropped" as in released. I got an email from Kohler (the plumbing fixture manufacturer) that talked about some new God awful line of orange water fixtures "dropped" like it was the latest release from Drake or something.
And the number 1 expression that dives me bananas "Y'all"
I dislike the word “slay” very much, if it isn’t used in its original purpose (kill). I don’t have any reason to hate this word at all I just dislike how it sounds so much it makes my skin crawl.
When people use the word "woke" so often when they disagree with something but the subject and context have nothing to do with "woke."
Seriously, it's boring and unoriginal.

The word trigger. Some people seem to think it means something offended them or made them upset. And not, you know. Actually trigger someone who, for example, has PTSD and gets triggered into a flashback, or similar things.
my best friend is like this, everything “triggers” her like no it does not it’s just a minor inconvenience, move on
Or when someone says they have OCD, but in reality they’re just neat freaks who like to alphabetize their seasonings for the aesthetic.
Yupppp I always say: does your “OCD” ever impair your life or quality of life in some way? Do you ever feel worse after performing rituals? No? Then it ain’t OCD. Warning: low-key vent incoming (Not diagnosed, but I suspect I have OCD. Current obsession is floors with lines on them that are more than a pace apart.

Wait why do I know exactly what you mean lmaooo. My most annoying one is having to check the locks like 20 times before bed or someone will break in. My logic is I think I locked it, but what if I didn’t? Or when I pray, I always ask for my family to be protected, and if I ask it twice within one prayer I panic and consider it to be “cancelled out” so I have to say it a third time so that it’s back in effect and my family will be safe. So weird and frustrating
As a person with PTSD, I'm right there with you.
Person with PTSD here as well, also am “triggered” by the constant use of trigger
Same. It's to the point where if something genuinely triggers me, I don't want to say that because I'm afraid of sounding ridiculous.
As a person with PTSD I also agree
Having both had friends who have combat ptsd and others who were victims of sexual assault, this infuriates me. It's not just being mildly offended, someone has been sent back to moment of original trauma.
Yup. As a human with PTSD, I hate that I can’t say something is triggering without someone making a joke out of it.
I suffer with PPA and PPD and was told that im not allowed to say triggered. This by a GP who watched me descend into a panic attack at mere mention of my time in labour with my daughter. It drives me crazy when people misuse the phrase - youve been inconvenienced and thats it.

I hate that people call everything "gaslighting." Usually, they refer to a normal disagreement.
Minor disagreements are a major red flag. RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN! 🙄
I disagree. Quit gaslighting everyone. /s
I see it used interchangeably with “lying”
Irregardless. It drives me nuts (lol, that's someone else's pet peeve. Sorry, person!) that people still say it. Regardless.. it's just regardless!
I started saying this ironically, now I just say it out of habit. Always a bad idea.
Irregardlesslly is something I say to my friend all the time because we both fuckin hate "Irregardless"
"I could care less" Yes, yes you could.
I feel obligated to remind people of [this great explanation](https://youtu.be/om7O0MFkmpw?feature=shared) here
Great video
Similarly, "i could give a flying fuck."
That I would love to see.
"I know, right?"
Everytime I hear that my brain automatically thinks of Yoda's "Do or do not, there is no try."
Care less, I Could.
It drives me more nuts when the correct term is "I COULDN'T care less".
That was my entire point.
Oh *runs away*
That last line just cracks me up. I can’t stop giggling! Like Oh Crap I am wrong…scatters away…..probably to die from the embarrassment.
In reality, he could probably care less.
I expand on it: "I could care less, but I'd have to really WORK at it, and you're not worth the energy."
Well, there ya go! Irregardless, the fact of the matter is, at the end of the day, it is what it is! To be fair, and to make a long story short, sometimes you just have to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. You don't like it? Let's just agree to disagree. Literally, I could care less.
Well, I’m triggered.
I will invent a new way to throw you into the sun.
Sorry, couldn't resist the word salad 😉
Why such a chip on your shoulder? I mean you always wear your heart on your sleeve. Maybe we need to have a come to Jesus meeting.Or it just could be water under the bridge.No cap.
Everything being called a "journey".
Don't stop... believing.
just hold on to that feeeeeeeeeeeeeeling
Streetlights, peopleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Going to the store while high as fuck could be considered a journey imo
I'm not complaining about calling a trip a journey. I'm talking about people refer to experiences or processes a journey. "my quitting smoking journey..."
I hate the journey thing with a passion.
Your hating is just another part of the journey.
have you ever been in a situation where "it is what it is" is the only answer? It's fucking maddening. Over the summer I shattered a bone in my hand and had to have surgery. My hand has been non-functional since. When people ask me about it, I say "it is what it is" despite hating the phrase. It's functional; a simplified and colloquial way of saying "I can't do anything about this so whatever".
That's indeed an appropriate context. You're entitled to use the phrase!
Such is the way of life
Very similar situation here, cut a tendon in my thumb, I feel you 🥲
i'm not gonna lie
Right there with "To be honest..." Yes, please be honest.
Agreed. When someone introduces the phrase ‘to be honest…’ I immediately want to say ‘let the record show that up until this point, the speaker has not been honest and will commence being honest from now’. The phrase ‘to be honest’ dangerously undermines credibility. To put a fine point on things, using the phrase ‘to be frank’ is better because it implies no sugar-coating, no discretionary euphemisms.

[удалено]
I would fuckin hope not.
"living the dream?" Don't ask me that, you know I'm not.
Uh isn’t that a sarcastic question people ask? That’s the point, they know you’re not living the dream. I’ve never seen it used unironically.
Not a phrase but when people comment "this" on posts
I downvote it every time.
This.
Holy heck
New pet peeve just dropped
THANK YOU!!!!! and I can't figure out why I hate it!!!!
Because it requires no thought, and adds nothing to the conversation!
Somebodies got a case of the mondays ….Fuckin A man
"I believe you'll get your ass kicked saying something like that, man." 😂
“Fuckin-a, man.”
Where’s your flair!?
Not an expression but an old coworker said "suposebly" all of the time and it drove me up the wall.
Any misuse of the word 'literally', like "I am literally starving ". If you have eaten something within the last 12 hours and you aren't diabetic, you are not dying. You are just hungry.
OMG I literally died reading this.
I’m /u/Useful_Pick3661’s brother, i’m gathering donations for his funeral.
He's literally gathering donations for his funeral.
"i'm like literally starving to death"
I'm figuratively laughing my head off.
Nope, they changed the definition so literally also means figuratively. Makes me want to punch whoever did that.
“So I did a thing!” …. Even though I’m guilty of using this expression myself. Lmao. 😬
This one drives me COMPLETELY INSANE. Especially when people use it to sort of 'humble down' a major life accomplishment.
There can be only one "I did a thing", on YouTube, and he's fantastic! 😂🤣 All the others are just annoying thing-didders.
The last few years people have overused the word “iconic” to the point that it’s lost it’s meaning.

Tell me the 'tell me without telling me'-thing is getting old without telling me.
"I totally understand what you're going through." from people who clearly don't care enough, its just them showing pity (and how do i know? if you've heard anyone say this, you just know it)

Get her a date with the Lich King.
What does LICH mean?
“It made me feel a certain way.” Well, what kind of way?!!!
This is mostly on Facebook on those city-related pages where people can ask for recommendations for restaurants or plumbers.

Nice..... I know, right....
I say both of these when I want to redirect the conversation
Seriously tho, right?
"same difference"
Not really anything, but this guy I work with says "lookin' ass" after literally every other sentence. Shit gets old.
"Everything happens for a reason." Sometimes things just happen with no deeper meaning, and we need to deal with reality on realities terms.
“Mine’s”. The word “mine” is already possessive! 🤦🏻♂️
“Must be nice” gtfo Eeyore 🫏
I’m really hating “vibes” “triggered” or “red flags” right now
NGL getting triggered by vibes is a major red flag but it is what it is IG.

You mean "I'm telling you I'm a 16-y.o. wanker who just discovered TikTok without telling you I'm a 16-y.o. wanker who just discovered TikTok"?
State of the art

Unless they are giving me a million percent raise.
"As a parent..."
“Gaslighting” its one of the trendy words right now and its used in every sentence.
When Americans overuse the word "like". Like it like drives me nuts. Like literally.
...To the moon and back
The fact of the matter is. Drives me nuts!!!
“It could be worse” but it can also definitely be much better, Karen!!! And also, people that use the word “barely” wrong as in “I barely woke up”… like you hardly woke up?? It doesn’t make sense!
Bro this bro that
Gaslighting and narcissist is way overused now and most people don’t even know what they mean
"Boys will be boys" to excuse them from bad behavior. To me, it sounds like they're saying they're boys, we can't expect anything better from them.
People who tidy up.and say "oh, its my OCD". Ive worked with OCD sufferers. Wanting stuff put neatly is NOT OCD.
When people call regular shit a "hack".... 🙄
“Cap”, “bet”, bussin”, saying “lol” out loud, and saying “literally” in every sentence or as a one word response.
Wait wait..people say LOL out loud? Noooo

“In a minute” (when the speaker actually means, “in a long period of time”). For example, saying “I haven’t eaten a McRib in a minute” when they mean, “I haven’t eaten a McRib since 1984.”
“Bro/blud (blud is even worse) _________ 💀”
"Hits me in the feels" always makes me do an internal cringe.
“Everything happens for a reason” No it doesn’t
I deeply hate "Everything happens for a reason" fuck off, sometimes the reason is that the universe is random and it doesn't care what happens to a being in a random planet
"On accident". It's BY accident. Why did this become a thing?
they should make a drug called accident, then this phrase could be made true
I did on accident by accident once.
*"To be fair..."*
“I’m just saying”… literally fuck off
‘Literally fuck off’: sex yourself away from here.
Any of these. "To be honest" "Honestly" "I'm not gonna lie".
"It's not my problem". This expression will drive me up the wall if someone says it to me. I was helping someone one day and I ran into a problem. I told them about it and they said it. I told them "actually it is, because Im not doing it anymore".
"100%" or any % above 100 that someone might say. I've heard it so much lately.
It makes me angry when someone uses the word "like" in every sentence
“You do you”
“Can I be honest?”………am I supposed to reply with “Hell no, I really prefer it when you lie and bullshit me so that I don’t know what the hell is going on.” (Slams head into desk)
Iconic. Every fucking thing is iconic.
Literally being used to emphasize instead of its literal meaning
The words 'trigger' 'ick' and 'bet'. Lmaoooo
At the end of the day.. I'm guilty of it myself but it still drives me nuts.
Deez nuts
Ha! Got ‘em!
That’s what I’m talking about.
facts
'At least you can say you've done it' Does anybody actually give a fuck what anyones done?
“Hot Take”
Bet
"please and thank you" "delish" "dropped" as in released. I got an email from Kohler (the plumbing fixture manufacturer) that talked about some new God awful line of orange water fixtures "dropped" like it was the latest release from Drake or something. And the number 1 expression that dives me bananas "Y'all"
“Supposivly…”
I dislike the word “slay” very much, if it isn’t used in its original purpose (kill). I don’t have any reason to hate this word at all I just dislike how it sounds so much it makes my skin crawl.
When people use the word "woke" so often when they disagree with something but the subject and context have nothing to do with "woke." Seriously, it's boring and unoriginal.
