Thought I'd start a new thread for us to post things that people say that bug us.
I have SO many!
One of my recent hated expressions is the hackneyed, idiotic, "It is what it is".
Makes my skin crawl.
I think the people that say it think they are being very wise, and philosophical, but it's seems trite, without any thought, and even defeatist to me.
Okay, thank you for letting me get that out.
What expressions do you hate? And if I say your hated expressions, I promise I won't be mad at you if you post that you hate them.
