Here's the words that I can't abide.

1. Totes
2. Emosh (just say emotional lol)
3. Microaggression (again just say passive aggressive)
4. Woke
5. Snowflake
6. MAP/No-Map (for obvious reasons)

I think that's all of them for me.

What words when being said make you groan?

Innit (ugh)
Vibe (i don't mind it in general, but half the twitch streams i see all have the same kind of titles "Positive Vibes Only" and all that)
Woke (just so overused now, it's boring)
Giga (a new buzzword for "cool")

Probably loads more, if i think of them i'll post them

I hate that one too when it's used as sick, I don't mind it if it's used for doing badly at something.

I hate it when people post on the Next door app looking for tutors for their ‘kid’

Your baby goat needs a tutor :think:

By a similar token, people who unironically say "mansplain" just make themselves sound like idiots. Use the proper word: patronise.
Patronize comes from Latin patronus "protector, master," related to pater "father."

Banter......when its used to excuse obvious blatant nastiness. "It's just banter". Nope, you're just rude

So true .. many use ‘banter’ when in fact it’s just plain and simple bullying or nastiness !!!
