What is the lamest expression?

[Gregory]

"Havin' fun yet?" may be the lamest thing to ask someone who obviously is not having any fun.

The last time anyone said that to me was almost a decade ago, when a cop asked me the question the third time he had encountered me within a couple of months (all occasions when I had committed no wrongdoing, I hasten to add--at least none of which he was aware).  I think that's strong evidence of the lameness of the expression.

"are you serious" is particularly bad.

Most "whimsical" euphemisms for female anatomy are terrible. Super-awful: calling breasts "jubblies".

When people say, "have a nice holiday, whether you celebrate Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa..."

Like just the mere mention of Kwanzaa is comedy gold anymore.

I also really hate whimsical uses of afro wigs, pimps, and the 1970s in general. I think once the frat boys at the local college started having these really unfunny 'pimps and hos' parties that the reference was pretty beat.

I absolutely hate "awkward turtle." Isn't adolescence all about awkwardness in the first place? Why do you need to bring in an animal and a stupid hand gesture to point out the obvious?

I have a friend who often has an afro-type hairstyle, which genuinely looks good on her, but frequently in public complete strangers will look at her and act as if she's just hilarious.

Afro or Jewfro?

I really hate hearing "cool beans", and yes, I still do hear it from time to time.

A favorite curse of my father's involves ranting about some evildoer, saying that someone should "break their legs and throw them down the stairs". He's from Philly--Fishtown, to be precise (it excites me when I hear it mentioned on the Best Show).  I always picture them tumbling down the unforgiving concrete stairs (uppermost deck, usually) of Veteran"s Stadium. 

My father's rants always make me smile, despite the cruelty--especially since they're generally reserved for people who really deserve it, people in the Cheney/animal abuser orbit.

Happy Father's Day!

The Caddyshack line, "It's in the hole!" should be banned from all golf events.

For example, yesterday during the U.S. Open, every time Tiger Woods putted, someone would yell, "It's in the hole!" 

Enough. It's lame.

Do those people think they're in the movie Happy Gilmore?

"are you serious" is particularly bad.

The correct usage is "Surely, you can't be serious."

To which the required response is, "I'm dead serious, and don't call me Shirley."
