Please don’t think I’m here to complain about rizz or skibidi toilet etc. Thats all fine by me.
The term I dislike strongly is ‘eeeh’ before you make a statement disagreeing with someone. (This is over text only). Now maybe I’ve been pavloved bc it’s always used by someone disagreeing. But I’m happy with people disagreeing with me normally its just the ‘eeeh’ or ‘erm’ that annoys me.
So what’s a random term that annoys you?
PS. Saying “eeeh actually ‘eeh’ is a perfectly fine term” would be a ridiculously easy joke and I will judge you for making it. And I know atleast one person will. Especially bow that I’ve said all this.
“Ding ding ding!” When someone agrees with something you wrote, but wants to make sure that you know that they already knew and claim ownership of the statement that you wrote. Condesending asshole. I did not arrive at your opinion late.
“Meanwhile” in cooking recipes. Just no. I am following a recipe in stepwise order. You do not get to tell me what I should have already done in the previous step.
Oooh yeah. Even saying, ‘this’.
The entire way recipes are written is trash.
“Add the flour and stir gently”: How much flour? Why do I have to scroll back up to check?!
Because the amounts can vary based on the number of servings, but the method doesn’t.
I’m doubling the amounts anyway, just give them to me in-line!
As much as I despise the fat-tongued mockney, Jamie Oliver’s website is the only one I’ve seen that has the ingredients and method on two tabs so you can flick between them
Dunno why they’re not all like that
It makes sense to have the ingredients first for making a shopping list and prepping. However, I do agree, with recipes being online, it should be a small task to include the quantity in the description too, even if it is adjustable for different servings.
Normally, portioning out the ingredients would be the first step of the process and is all done at once.
Probably not normally, but ideally. I doubt mise en place is all that common in most homes.
I see that you don’t bake much. 🙂
I bake quite a bit and I don’t do my mise-en-place either when it comes to baking, but that’s not a problem. The way recipes are formatted works well for my process as well. I read through the steps ahead of time if it’s a recipe I am unfamiliar with, then I’ll just have the ingredients list open while I’m doing the prep. The things I make are pretty basic (cookies, cakes, muffin, etc) and the steps are all identical. Mix wet, mix dry, mix everything, bake.
I personally find that having less repeated information makes things easier and faster to read. The recipe says “add flour”, you know that it’s all the flour. If the recipe says “add flour (1 cup)”, then I have to check back in the ingredients list to figure out if that’s all the flour or only part of it. Then the more info you add to clarify, the harder it is to skim while you’re cooking.
How many tablespoons do you think I own?
underwhelming
‘Playing Devil’s advocate’.
Mostly because most people who use it do so in glaringly wrong ways.
“Who hurt you?”
These days, that’s shorthand for “I’m an emotionally stunted liberal who is so incapable of self-reflection that anyone who disagrees with a point I have must be acting from a place of unresolved trauma”. It’s always felt like people-who-definitely-used-to-post-to-4chan burning extra words to get to the r-slur they so desperately want to use; but with the exact kind of plausible deniability that gets their squishy bits either hard or wet.

I do the “eh” thing sometimes without thinking about it but I agree with you, I don’t like being on the other end of it either. I’m trying to work on that
People that use question marks in non-question sentences just to be extra snippy and condescending. Fuck that.
Exspecially
All intensive purposes
Irregardless
I could care less
So like … what’s your answer?
I will use irregardless to my dying breath. In fact I go out of my way to use dumb combinations of synonyms all the time, mayhaps, possentially…
That’s incredually stupidous.
Perchance there’s hope for you yet! Despite this happenstance of negativity.
All intensive purposes
Wait a minute…
It’s “all intents and purposes”
My son started saying “what the sigma?” constantly. I’ve tried to figure out where it came from and only landed on some “Sigma Male” shit on youtube.
Drives me nuts.
lol i think your too focused on the sigma part. What the _____? has a similar meaning as far as i can tell. Some guy just said sigma instead one time on tiktok and it sounded funny so people copied him.
What the heck
What the hell
What the fuck
etc all basically are used the same altho what the sigma tends to be used in a more lighthearted way from what i can tell. Like what the fuck is more angry.
I think it might be from a SpongeBob SquarePants meme. You might wanna start there. Not sure why that’s tickling my brain.
Oh and I just found this: https://knowyourmeme.com/editorials/guides/whats-erm-what-the-sigma-meme-about-the-catchphrase-and-overstimulation-video-explained
So it looks like started as a TikTok thing and then spread into the SpongeBob world.
I’m not sure why my ADHD brain latched on to this question but I HAD to find the answer. I don’t know if this is definitive but it’s at least a direction.
Get a new son
Yeah, just “sigma” goes back to sigma male claptrap. But as with all internet memes, it evolved super rapidly and took on layers. “Sigma” started to mean just “the best”, not in reference to male hierarchy necessarily. Then there was a cartoon clip with Squidward from SpongeBob where he said “what the sigma” and it went viral.
Websearch “what the sigma meme” today and you will get text and video explanations of the meme for old folks like you and me. I prefer ones from teachers who interact with middle schoolers; our frontline troops facing the bleeding edge of internet memespeak.
Hit your kids harder, dude.

Shut up, baby, I know it.
Start using it yourself. Use it in awkward, wrong, uncool ways. They’ll drop that shit like, “What the sigma Dad!?!”
Also use it around your co-workers and peers who have children and would recognize it when you want to really get under their skin, it’s skibidi sigma on cap
Bet!
“I’m just sayin’” ok but you’re still an asshole.
Also “Not gonna lie…” to start a sentence. Well thank you for that decency?
This one makes me crazy. And I’ve heard it so much I’ve caught myself saying it which makes me angry with myself.
“Know what I’m sayin’?”
“Not really. Do you know what you’re saying?”
It’s always to mitigate something heinous. “I’m just sayin’, Mussolini made the trains run on time.”
YES
i know i’m being a
but i despise the term ‘taxpayer funds’/‘taxpayer money’. besides being completely wrong in nearly all cases, it places taxes above the people, above labor.‘American taxpayer is paying for the genocide in Gaza’. No, every person/entity using U.S. Dollars is paying for it. Even foreign countries are indirectly paying for it.
GINORMOUS
Supermassive?
Black hole
on the same note, “guesstimate”
The corporate overenthusiasm “LET’S FUCKING GOOOOO”.
Ugh. Sure, maybe the product launch went great, but still. Ugh.
Any corporation or even companies social media account being memey is annoying.
I just hate it when people try to elongate the word GO with more Os.
It’s now a new word. It’s GOO. Any further Os just make it gooier, not goier.
Can we just mean corporate speak in general. I can’t fucking stand all the buzzwords that get tossed around
Pah-sketti
You’re 65 Brad, use big boy words.
Is that for spaghetti? I actually love people who naturally say words in a different way. Especially if they speak a different dialect or language.
Yes, for spaghetti.
And yes it’s for people who know they are ‘making a funny’, it doesn’t bother me for kids or others.
I’m with you then. All the food ‘content creators’ and their bs pisses me off
Whatever nonsense gen alpha started saying these days.
Nah that’s rizzler shit on God sigma 10k
