Yes, both of those are overdone! It's funny that Bob thought of "At the end of the day", because I just heard that one last night. Like, "After everything's been said and done..."
Omg, those are all so funny! The thing that makes each one laughable is when you consider who put it up. Like Leo saying, "I'm pregnant"; in other words, he hears it it so much that as far as he's concerned, it's a phrase that's way overused. And Alyssa using "insufficient funds". lollolol

Hey you guys.....What CAN I say? I had no idea I was talking so foolishly all of these years. I need a whole new vocabulary and arsenal of phrases after reading these!
Yeah, you will all have to bear with me while I try to think of replacement phrases for some of these that I say on a regular basis. Please be patient. I AM trying. Thank you.
Seeing all these phrases, especially the politically correct ones,gives you a glimpse of how controlled we are by government, and the government blueprint we've been conditioned to follow. Can you see it?
I mean, when you put them all together, it becomes clear: tamper-proof ID card They hate us for our freedoms Radical Islamic extremists who want to kill us 9/11 changed everything It's in our national interest for the good of the children Support our troops God bless America Proud to be an American global warming think green Theres a cop, put on your seatbelt Republicrat/Demopublican protect the children just say NO Talk to your kids.

Drinking and driving don't mix. sobriety checkpoint illegal immigrants Martha Stewart childproof drug war the feds this is a bust police raid rehab probation on parole rehab three-strikes law zero-tolerance sober living house
There's zillions!
My point is, if we were able to put ourselves back in the days of Thomas Jefferson, and we used these phrases, they'd think we were speaking a different language. So you can see how far off the track we've gotten.
Are you tired of hearing certain words and phrases? Like... "Everything happens for a reason" .... or ... "Awesome!"
65 comments:
I don't like "Actually." When people start their sentences with it. Or "I'm actually...."
Also "Basically."
Oh and.... "Obliterate" not really.
"Have a nice day."
"have a nice day" lol
"What's wrong with you, are you in a bad mood?"
Yeah! Another worn-out phrase is, "Good job!" I admit, it kind of makes you feel good when someone says it to you, but still...
Yeah, "basically" is stupid, and "essentially".
How about, "Bottom line."
Or "Dude".
"That's hot."
"That's tight."
"Sweet."
And "cool". Don't you think that's a little overused? Everything's cool.
But I use cool a lot myself, so go figure.
Oh yeah, that's another one, "Go figure."
lol!
Lisa, leave it to you to be so funny! LOL
How about that one? "LOL"
"It's in our national interest."
Good one, John.
"For the good of the children."
"Bless you." when someone sneezes. I HATE that one.
"God bless America."
"Support our troops."
"I'm just saying..."
"frickin'"
"I'm so blessed."
"Have a blessed day."
"I'm born-again."
"They're christians."
Someone else's turn. This is fun.
If we get sick of hearing an innocuous phrase like "everything happens for a reason," there's a reason for that.
By the way, Pryndana's was good too, "What's wrong with you, are you in a bad mood?" Or, "Are you OK?" lol
"Change"
"Once upon a time" JK
I think I'm falling in love with you.
I'm so tired of hearing, "you are so beautiful and talented".
"Excuse me, but could you be any relation to Brad Pitt?"
John, that's the BEST one. SO FUNNY!!!
Carol! You are so funny to think of that. John took it to the next level!
Who's next?
Thinking... But, while I think, I want to say I agree with Lisa's. There are a lot of good ones in her comment.
Here's one: "GREEN"
I'm so sick of that new catchword for the environmental craze.
Going green. Think green. Give me a break!
Right on, Linnette! And that reminds me, the term "global warming" always makes my eyes roll.
"Clearly..."
"blah, blah, blah"
"the American people"
"the public"
"You might want to... (do so and so)"
"Just so you know..."
"Have you called Jenny yet?" I REALLY AM SICK OF THAT COMMERICAL.
"I was only trying to help."
lololll
And Tavia's was the best, the word CHANGE. As if everything will be fine once we chaaaaaange.
"yo"
"you rock, man"
"Branjolina"
"Britney Spears needs help"
"Hey Sexy" lol
"That sucks"
"Get a life"
Last call
Robert Said: I hate this one.
"At the end of the day"
Yes, both of those are overdone! It's funny that Bob thought of "At the end of the day", because I just heard that one last night. Like, "After everything's been said and done..."
"It's the first of the month" (meaning the mortgage is due)
"I'm pregnant"
"Insufficient Funds"
"Past Due"
Omg, those are all so funny! The thing that makes each one laughable is when you consider who put it up. Like Leo saying, "I'm pregnant"; in other words, he hears it it so much that as far as he's concerned, it's a phrase that's way overused. And Alyssa using "insufficient funds". lollolol
"Ron Paul"
Get it?
"I have a headache."
"Soshi"
"Can I buy you a drink?"
lol!
Yeah, and whenever I order a drink, I'm sick of hearing, "I need to see your ID."
jk
Now THAT is funny, Linnette. You should have just put "I need to see your ID", like you hear it too much because everyone's always asking you that.
You're a hoot! dud
Here's one that's worn its welcome out: You go girl!
OK, here's words that people use to try to sound streetsmart (IMO):
"bimbo" "bombshell", "no-brainer", "whatever", "A-hole", "hang", "loser", "utopia", "technically".
"my therapist"
6 million jews were murdered
. . . . the "planet"

The cops are on the way.
What did I do?
You have the right to remain silent......
Paper or plastic?
What kind of tile are you looking for? (lol)
Theres a cop, put on your seatbelt.
I need some lamps
Drew's are very funny! Another very good one is by Carol: paper or plastic.
How 'bout, "I'm sick and tired...."
Yes, that's a good one, Kelly. People say that way too easily.
You know what I mean?
Wassup?
No way...
It was a little pitchy.
"How's that working for you?"
"OH MY GAWD."
"Republicrat/Demopublican"
"Google it."
"My Space."
"Ellen G. White says..."
"Cutting-edge"
"Think outside the box"
"We need to set some boundaries"
"We need to talk."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"What part of NO don't you understand?"
"Celebrity"
"Are those real?"
"computer-literate"
"Zero tolerance"
"rehab"
"Are you on probation?"
"Have you had anything to drink tonight?"
"fast food"
"Drinking and driving don't mix"
"Just say NO"
"Is this legal?"
e-Harmony
"Dr. Phil"
Maybe we should just start leaving comments we find acceptable. Mix it up a little.
IRS: Our audit of your finances shows we owe you money. Sorry, here's a check.
Hey you guys.....What CAN I say? I had no idea I was talking so foolishly all of these years. I need a whole new vocabulary and arsenal of phrases after reading these!
Man.
Yeah, you will all have to bear with me while I try to think of replacement phrases for some of these that I say on a regular basis. Please be patient. I AM trying. Thank you.
Yeah Tave, we got carried away again. Go figure.
I don't want this post to fade out. It was fun coming here to check out the comments. Sometimes we just need let go of the politics and goof off.
Lol, as though debating and voicing our opinions is serious business for us...
Well, then let's keep it going, Lisa. Okay, here are a couple:
"Needless to say"
"Now, that's what I'm talking about!"
Your turn.
"Hillary"
"Absolutely."
"No problem"
"No worries."
"Chill out"

9/11 changed everything
The N word
Now that's probably the most sickening of them all: 9/11 changed everything.
Not that it's untrue, but there's an attitude that goes along with it, like, "That's why we take these measures."
Yeah, " 9/11 changed everything" is a good one. I really hate that.
"They hate us for our freedom"
"Radical Islamic extremists who want to kill us"
"Tamper Proof ID Card"
Those are good ones, Tavia!
Seeing all these phrases, especially the politically correct ones,gives you a glimpse of how controlled we are by government, and the government blueprint we've been conditioned to follow. Can you see it?
I mean, when you put them all together, it becomes clear: tamper-proof ID card
They hate us for our freedoms

We card. Because we care.
Please drink responsibly.

Yes, Lisa. What a list. And, you're right there are many, many more.

Exactly. Good, Linnette! You get my point.
