Official "Stop Saying That Phrase" Thread

Of course... now... that I'm actually thinking... could also be a Kool Aid Acid test reference...

Either way, I think its a "lemming" type accusation.

Ok, the "follow the crowd without thinking" or "lemming" reference makes good sense to me. I am not sure about the "Kool Aid Acid Test" reference. It's been a long time since I read that book however.

Wikipedia says it's originally a reference to Kesey & the Merry Pranksters & the Acid Tests, and the association with Jonestown came later.

I don't like Wikipedia and will continue to mistrust it's veracity due to it's policy of "user defined entries" however I do use it as a research "jumping off point" and will check out the Kesey reference elsewhere.

How about, "Fucking Elitists." When will that ever run its course?

We get it Taos. Thanks.

And just look who felt it necessary to chime in! (sarcasm) :tongue2:
Chill out, Josh! It wasn't a biblical reference!

No, but it was repeated douchebaggery. The act is tired.

douchebaggery

That will never grow old, imo.

Let's not make this a poli forum thread... starting a parallel thread in there is an option, if anyone cares to do so. :)

Gee! And I thought "repeated douchebaggery" was high jacking a thread with non- relevant personal attacks? (sarcasm)

Don't try "douchebaggery" in your next Scrabble game!

Finally one I can just sit back and watch!

"I could care less."

Wouldn't that mean you care a little?

Shouldn't it be "I couldn't care less?" Meaning, "I don't care at all so there isn't any room for me to care less?" Maybe that should be the new phrase-

Bob: "Hey, did you hear Barry Bonds broke Hank Aaron's home run record?"
Joe: "I don't care at all so there isn't any room for me to care less."
Bob: "Oh."

It's got a nice ring and feel to it...

I love when someone tells me "to tell the truth" before they make a statement. Do you really need to point out that at this time you are actually telling the truth, what do you do the rest of the time.
