Let’s unanimously admit that each of us is “ok” with different things. Something that sounds good to my ears may drive you crazy. And correspondingly, something that strongly annoys me, may seem literally indifferent to you.

2024 is one step closer than ever and I thought that if we want to say goodbye to 2023 properly, then we should also exorcise some sayings that we heard in the past but continue to hear to this day. Either from friends, acquaintances, relatives, or in the easiest case from strangers.

How about these rants become a path to a better “us” and not an obstacle to self-sabotage?

No saying should really have the power to upset us, since everything begins and ends from “inside” to “outside”. This is what is healthy, after all, and not the opposite.

  1. When will you have a child? Come on, have a kid.

  4. And what am I? Any gays? I don’t have a problem with the LGBTQ community as long as it doesn’t…
  5. The term femicide is incorrect. Women are also responsible for a lot, let’s stop victimizing women all the time.

  10. If you keep acting the way you want, we’re going to break up.
  11. To be single for so long, there must be something wrong with her/him.
