Yes. The thread is a year old, but the phrase "nom nom nom" has been completely eradicated.

| Are you folks having a sad over this unauthorized use of slang? |
|
People need to quit saying "I know, right?" annoying.
Also when you say excuse me to someone and they say "oh you're good" annoys me. I know I'm good, but thanks for the blessing. |
| I hate woot and hubby, but love nom nom nom bec that's how I feel when I'm eating something yummy! Allo Guvnah is awesome and I immediately love anyone who says it. |
|
I also HATE, "Oh, you're fine," or "Oh, you're good..."
I KNOW that. TOTALLY don't need your approval. |
oh, OK so you still use it. |
| I hate "totes" for totally and "adorbs" for adorable. It makes my skin crawl. |
| I hate it just as much when the singular "nom" is used, which one of my friends annoyingly does. |
| I hate it when people talk about their spouse as "my best friend." (i.e. Thirty years ago, I married my best friend.) One of my neighbors recently divorced her 'best friend' because apparently they both had additional 'best friends' on the side. Go figure . .. |

Re: nom, nom, nom
What is the derivation? Is it pronounced the way it's spelled or does "nom" rhyme with "um"? I am genuinely stumped by this. |
+1. I also despise "Welp." Also, can't stand when people say "Yowza!" in response to a flattering profile picture on FB. Or how when there is a FB picture of a pregnant woman, someone always has to comment that she is a "pretty pregnant mama." Barf! I am also getting tired of "Boom!" |
| "Nom, nom, nom" is unacceptable, except when you say it while nuzzling a baby's cheeks. Tots adorbs!! |
| I'm a gamer so I say those things. Has nothing to do with my intelligence. It's just very common in many online communities and sometimes carries over into the offline world. I am very capable to speak "properly" as well but don't always feel like it. And luckily the people around me aren't bothered and find my occasional nom nom and woot sprees rather cute. |
w00t! I can recognize my own kind from how they type w00t. |
It's what Cookie Monster says. |
