- cheese off68%
A mild British slang phrase meaning to annoy, irritate, or tick someone off. 'Cheese off' is the kind of expression your nan might use instead of something stronger — it carries the same frustration as 'p*ss off' but with the sharpness dialled down. It can be used transitively ('you've really cheesed me off') or as a description of a state ('I'm completely cheesed off today'). It's warm, very British, and wonderfully understated for something that means genuine irritation.
