This might be unpopular but people who put sugar on cereal. Or on anything really.

True and the word “sick” to describe something as good, another American word and so stupid on a British person, Tommy TOWIE is the worst for using it, and the way he says “Bruv” really loudly and over the top gives me the ducking rageBrits using the word "awesome" in the American sense of "good". Sounds so goofy in our accents. (yes I've just seen the new teams advert)

I do love their “threw me under the bus” saying though that we Brits have adopted! This saying was around in the US about 8 years ago and it’s only been the last 4 years that I’ve used it and heard others doing it, America is always ahead of us that way.Language is alive and all that... but Americanisms really don't sound right on us imo

Not sure I can stomach being a parent because that makes me feel sickPeople posting pictures/videos of their children with food all over their faces
I temporarily went to beauty school and had 2 internships and all they could do was gossip about people. I felt my soul dyingAfter having my ear chewed off by a couple of people lately who have done this ...
People who can't seem to have a conversation with you without gossiping about what others are up to (the irony of my being on a celebrity gossip forum is not lost on me). They're typically older people who I call to find out how they are; they constantly take the topic back to what young such-and-such said, or who isn't talking because x. It drives me nuts. It speaks volumes about what sort of people they are and I'm always hesitant to tell them too much, knowing my news will prove gossip fodder for someone else's ears.
I should add, not all older people are like this. I purchased a house from a lady in her 80s, who moved into a retirement home, and we keep in touch. She is just the coolest lady and has so many interests and hobbies, as well as being a social butterfly. She's amazing. And she rarely talks about anyone, other than to say she caught up with x, usually followed by a lovely compliment about them.
This is a real bugbear of mine too, especially when it's committed by people who should know better **cough, my sister**. Lose/loose is another one.When people type brought instead of bought
Could of / should of / would of - it’s could have / should have / would have!! This boils my blood far too much
Yes, those women who define themselves by the fact they've had a child. I know someone just like this. Her kids are her world (aren't everybody's?!) Nobody else in the world could ever love their kids more than she does hers, and she feels she has to proclaim it ad nauseum with memes, photos and inspirational quotes.When people refer to their baby as "my world". I know parenthood is amazing and all-consuming, but for duck's sake, you don't need to eradicate your whole personality.
Also "proud mum". "Proud" anything. Just smacks of undeserved arrogance and smugness.
