Vampire anything else. Sick to death (or undeath) of the whole genre.
I know you weren’t defending it. I’m just shocked people can be so anal about something they’re so clearly wrong about.

Re: the baby-talking. No, no kids and she is in her late 40s.
I suspect it’s something to do with her relationship with her husband who calls her “baby girl” and other such nauseating terms.
Dope-slapping would be nice. She’s an otherwise really great employee and speaking properly isn’t part of the job description so I just grit my teeth and stay silent. A lot.
I currently mute the new McDonald’s commercials with their freain’ Eco-nom-nom-nomics". The nom nom nom thing is IDIOTIC! What are you? 12? If someone says it to me, I will never ever talk to them again. I keep HOPING some people will say it to me so I have an excuse to not talk to them ever again. It’s my current “Missy’s going to go off if you say it” phrase.
“…but I digress”. Dunno why I hate it so much.
“Bestie” :mad:
In our family we have 4 generations of 8 month pregnant ladies in bikinis. They all are proud of this set of fotos. It resides at my mother’s house. She is 85 and not in the series.
Actually said to my daughter 25 years ago. “There are 2 words I’d like you to stop using, one is awesome and the other crude.”
She replied, “Sure daddy what are they?”
Ha!
So is she still complying?
I always hate it when a person says to their dog or cat, “Come to Mommy” or Daddy. I had thought it was something that women said who’d never had a baby, but the last few years it has seemed to be ubiquitous, this idea of being the parent of a dog or cat.
Well, it’s easier than ‘Please Master, will you consent to come to me?’
My understanding is it means the mother of your child if the pair of you aren’t married.
Just like knocked started out meaning getting pregnant when one was not married, but now seems to mean any pregnancy.
Hm, let’s see. Somehow “cool” now means “shut up, I’m done listening” and it irritates me to no end. Cool, so…
totes amazeballs awesomesauce all the whimsical Facebook-speak…
“the ask”, “the spend”, etc.
“a thing” instead of “a phenomenon.” C’mon, I know it’s a big word, but literally everything is a thing.
“I get it”. A synonym for “I don’t get it, but please shut up.”
I think it’s a little more than that. “Baby mama/daddy” is the other parent of your child when the two of you have no other relationship.
Your wife? Your ex-wife? Your girlfriend? Your fiancee? none of those? someone you hooked-up with at a party, and the condom broke, and the two of you decided to parent together despite not knowing each other’s last names? Baby mama.
Yes, I know that sounds judgmental-- but I have nothing against hook-ups, although I don’t personally do them, having been young and unattached when HIV was a really scary thing, but I do have something against people who use the term “Baby mama/daddy.” If you really need a special term to communication your lack of a prior attachment, please come up with something else.
Yes, I also know other people are starting to use it, but really, it is not cute or funny to refer to your pregnant wife of four years as your baby mama, and it also isn’t a good way to refer to your surrogate either, Tina Fey movies aside, because people are going to think she got pregnant the old-fashioned way.
You left out “_____ you’ve been doing wrong” and “______ will make you cry.”
Eclectic.
OK, its garbage with parts from all over. It’s a nice word to know -But not to see 10 times a day!
News outlets are now getting into the act - and not just in the “reviews” section.
Flavor profile - before every food writer in the world latched onto this phrase, the word “flavor” or “taste” seemed to work just fine. It makes people who use it come across as food snobs who can break down flavors better than the rest of the masses.
While I have an exceedingly high estimate of my own post, this one tops even mine.
For that matter, “mouthfeel.” Every time I hear that I want to stab something.
Also, “sexting.”
