"Dear valued customer".

You can add tags when you are sending out mass emails so that the first name field is automatically personalised. If companies don't take two seconds to add a simple tag to make the email vaguely personalised, I can't be a very valued customer.

'a gentle reminder'

and

'covid secure'

I use " a gentle reminder", what it really means when I use it is " head, ffs don't forget to do this, I told you many times and as you are an incompetent prick, I have to waste my time reminding you again "

Your back turned to the camera and a peace sign. I know it’s not a saying but it massively pisses me off

‘No brainier’ - it’s being used in common sentences now and it upsets me

I think if such an extension existed I would end up blocking so many words that most of the internet would be blocked

The English language is going to hell in a handcart. It upsets me. Speak properly or do us all a favour and keep your trap shut.

‘Need gone’ when people are selling something onlin. I don’t think it even makes sense.


Calling some one ‘whipped’ or ‘under the thumb’ really annoys me. Often aimed at men that simply respect or prioritise their partner.
“Better not have another pint lads. The Mrs is just serving up a roast she’s spent 2 hours cooking” .... “Ohhh he’s whipped” - no he’s just not an hole!

Or a bloke that won’t go to a strip club because his partner has asked him not to. “Ohh he’s well under the thumb that one”... or maybe he thinks it’s a little unreasonable but understand his partner has insecurities and not triggering them is far more important that seeing some random tits and arse?!
