What is something that is popular now that annoys you?

You wouldn’t have to wait that long if you looked at me. :blush:

@butterscotch @Bretrick For me, it has to be that dreadful and widely used word KIDS.
I was a child as was my wife and we raised children. None of those four were referred to as our kids.
A young person is a child and a young goat is a kid. There is a vast difference!

Here in South Yorkshire all children are referred to as kids - sprogs - or brats or little angels depending what area you come from LongDriver…

My granny used to hate people calling their grandmother Nan or Nanny, we’d never have dared :fearful:

“I’m not a bloody goat!”

I agree. Granny. Grandma. Grandmother.
Where on earth did ‘nanny’ come from. We don’t call Grandpa ‘billy’

I never minded being called a kid. Even now, as someone enters the room they may say, “Hi kids! How are you”? It infers you are young.

And a goat? Ah…I wouldn’t mind that, either. GOAT= Greatest Of All Time. I’ve been called worse things. :grin:

When someone calls me dude, I reply…
I am not a dude, dude. I’m a bloody Aussie mate. I like football, meat pies, kangaroos, holden cars, aeroplane jelly and vegemite :slightly_smiling_face:
