Along with 'lol'.I swear people use bro in place of punctuation
Also, the over-use of 'maxxing' is giving me the rage. I saw 'bookmaxxing' in the Guardian today meaning people reading more books. FFS, just stop.

It's on par with online reviews "haven't used/been yet" nobody needs to know this useless informationWe have a WhatsApp group for our road. It’s a very friendly road and most people know each other. There are often messages asking to borrow something, or if anyone has recommendations for tradespeople etc.
One lady replies to every single one of them. Always, “oh sorry, can’t help but hope you get sorted”
Every single time. It just irks me. I know she’s being nice but after the 100th time it grates.
A colleague posts "LOL" and the laughing emoji to pretty much everything on our Teams chat.Along with 'lol'.

I have someone like that on a work chat. We mainly use it to try and get shifts covered but she always replies, “No, sorry (x) I’m doingWe have a WhatsApp group for our road.

I used to sit right underneath one of the panels, always freezing, would complain but was ignoredIcy cold air con in the work office, there's absolutely NO need for air con to be on this cold allllllllllll day because there's a bit of sun outside. Sat in a bloody hoodie it's ridiculous
I once posted in a group asking for help with something. Every comment was no sorry. I deleted my post and got asked why.

I think some people see social media as an extension of in person conversation, where it absolutely would be polite and normal to apologise and say you can’t help.I once posted in a group asking for help with something.

Same here, and I know the woman doing it is just being polite and she is a really nice and helpful woman. And sometimes she does have recommendations or whatever. But more times it's of the 'I don't know but I hope you get sorted' variety. I don't see the point of answering unless it's something that actually helps/ answers the question.We have a WhatsApp group for our road. It’s a very friendly road and most people know each other.

its all the bleep youtubers that do it. My 8 year old loves bleep Youtubers and they all say bro for everythingThe sudden oversaturated use of the word "Bro", it honestly makes me want to spontaneously combust with rage.
Especially if you're over the age of 13/14, I might be old school, but that and all this plastic road man patter that's crept in is infuriating.
I find myself out in the wild, struggling to keep my hands in my pockets.![]()
We are constantly complaining about ours, we had someone visit from a different office last week and they were so shocked how cold it was - they were sat in their coat!Icy cold air con in the work office, there's absolutely NO need for air con to be on this cold allllllllllll day because there's a bit of sun outside.

I will try this, thank you!Run it under a hot tap then use a very fine needle to poke the hole, then run again under the tap.
Just checked my neighbour WhatsApp group….I think this is me.....and the person you are talking about is also here and recognises themself!!!!
You can add me to the list of possible neighbours because there’s a woman on our street WhatsApp who is exactly the same. It drives me mad!Imagine if we were both on the same road talking about the same person![]()
