Ok is it just me or does anyone else's skin crawl when they hear/read the much over used word "yummy"? Even worse when a man says it. What ever happened to delicious, or tasty? I don't know what it is about that word, maybe it sounds childish? Anyone else feel this way?
I agree and it does sound a bit childish. Perhaps it began with cooking shows like Rachel Ray...remember "Yum-O"? Maybe folks are too lazy about language to dig up words like savory, succulent and tantalizing to describe the food. The other possible explanation is they don't have the vocabulary.
" Yummy ! A moist cluster fuck. Yum yum, my favourite words in one delish sentence. "
So excited by that phrase that you had to say it twice! I’m beginning to think you’re a dirty old man!
@Marionville
Maybe, maybe not ! But thanks for pointing it out to me. Had no idea I posted it twice. Have now deleted one.
Worse is the Australianism, 'yummo' (gags).
Yummo is not worse. I hate the 'e' sound on the end of words like biccy mummy, yummy, tummy . They sound like toddler words. But frankly I haven't heard the word 'yummy' or 'yummo' in yrs. I have been known to exclaim 'That's delish!' however.
Worse than yummy? Nummy. Where did that come from? Actually, "worse than yummy" is a great name for something, don't you think? a novel? a film? a band? Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for "Worse Than Yummy!"
Yummy - No big deal. Nummy, however, is something you say to a toddler. ICK
No problems with Yummy. The word I do have a problem with is Awesome! It seems to have become the most overused word recently, especially amongst Americans. There are only a few things that I could reasonably use that adjective to describe, as awe is something only great and inspiring things or events could induce, for instance viewing the Grand Canyon!
I think maybe you think yummy sounds childish because It rhymes with mummy. We have an expression here “yummy mummies” and that does give me the shudders!
@Marionville better than milf though ?
@SimonCyrene Just about!
@minhmeister Give me a like then if you agree!
@minhmeister I like a man who does what he’s told, so I have reciprocated!
The word "moist." ((shudders))
Me too.....ugh!
My least favorite word. UGH is right!
My bothersome thing to hear is "he is the bomb but has a short fuse". Excuse me I am going to go vomit and cry.
I have never heard this phrase and am very thankful for that. It irritates me by reading it.
Yummy doesn't bother me, but I don't hear it very often.
Not yummy, but I know lots of people dislike the word moist.
My uncomfortable trigger word is cluster
I gagged even typing it
@LadyAlyxandrea As in cluster-fuck! I would describe Brexit in such terms!
@LadyAlyxandrea, @Marionville
How about a moist cluster fuck, that should do it for everyone !
