"Bland" as a catch-all term for "I didn't like this"
People (usually when discussing video games or TV shows) using "overpowered" as a synonym for "too powerful." Then abbreviating it to "OP." It makes me want to bludgeon someone

On a related note: People who insist Britain is a "Christian" country and that we should base public policy around this (Usually as an excuse to try and pass laws against LGBT people, make life difficult for single mothers and Muslims, etc.) disregarding that, while a number of people may call themselves Christian or say they believe in a God, this does not mean they are actively observant or have the same idea of what Christianity is.
E.g.
Person A reads the Bible regularly, is observant, goes to church every week, etc. However, they believe that God is all-loving, and that they shouldn't judge others. They don't want to ostracise gay and trans people, or censor TV, they don't care if we scrap Sunday trading laws as long as
they don't have to work on Sunday, etc.
Person B likes the idea of Jesus and goes to church maybe at Christmas and Easter. They otherwise don't really follow the religion.
Person C puts down C of E as their religion on official forms because "it's what everyone does" and they sort of see it as the default option.
All these people might call themselves Christian. Which of them are we supposed to base said public policy around?
