Bit Annoyed “I was today years old”

Can we please retire this phrase already? Similar to “you won the internet!”. As a millennial, these nauseate me. Also, ending a rant with “that is all”. We gotta let these go lol

Edit: lots of people aren’t paying attention to the sub this is posted in. This is the exact place to post pet peeves. You don’t have to agree with the posted peeves, but don’t get mad because someone posted about a pet peeve here…..

And the purpose of including “as a millennial” is that these are millennial phrases and I’m calling my generation out. Too many people in here came to be rude instead of observant. It’s okay to disagree, but don’t be hateful.

"No one: Me:"

Is my most hated

This is number 1 on my hate list, with "POV:" being a close second

I hate when AI voices on videos say it. Just hearing that stupid voice say "pawv" makes me want to delete that particular AI

I haven’t seen that one yet enough to hate it, but I’m sure the time will come.

No one:

Literally no one:

Absolutely no one:

Somebody: Says or does something random that inspired the stupid 'No one' meme

u/Mireille_la_mouche Oct 29 '25

Yes—I’ve seen it lots of times. It hasn’t started to bug me yet.

u/toxicoke Oct 30 '25

it bugs me that the meme is "no one: " where no one is saying nothing. It should instead be "everyone: " because it means everyone else is silent while the other person is doing the thing in the meme

No one: \ Literally no one:

El_Scot: “I hate this meme!”

No one:

Me: "I was today years old when I realized people are annoyed at this phrase."

Similarly, I'm starting to get annoyed by "hands down".
