What is the lamest expression?

[masterofsparks]

Not so much an expression, but I HATE HATE HATE when someone uses the word "delicious" to describe anything other than food. So gross.

Speaking of weird grandma expressions, mine, when she was mad about something, would say "I'll have your guts for garters!" I'm kinda glad I didn't really understand what it meant when I was a kid because it's a pretty gross image.

I got pretty tired of Gail Simmons describing food as "delicious."

I have an acquaintance who always calls sex "playing."  It's revolting.

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?

Afro. She's Dominican.

How about

"I'm sorry."

TOTALLY lame. Overused. Manipulative. Cliched. Trite.

Do you have something against Canadians, Dave?

FINALLY saw Juno tonight.  I have enough lame expressions to take down the FOT server.

[Fido]

It gets under my skin that so many people say "sorry" when they mean "excuse me," or "pardon me" (which no one under 75 probably ever says).

Other lame expressions:

stoked
jazzed
sweet

I can't stand it when I hear people say that they're "over" something.  Even worse when it's phrased as, "I'm SO over (this day at work) (high gas prices) (controversy over eating foie gras.)"

Please stop!

"How's the weather up there?" As in, "Hey tall guy, how's the weather up there?"

Basically anything swiped from South Park. You are not a sad panda, you're just sad.

Thank you! Fa sheesy!

Also, using Simpsons quotations in lieu of an actual sense of humor. You know how the Simpsons writers make fun of obsessive Simpsons dorks? They do that because they HATE YOU.

PS: It's not my fault, but I reflexively throw punches whenever someone addresses me as "Guy."

How 'bout waiters that call you "buddy"?

Any guy who calls me "woman" when talking to my husband. "You need to learn how to control your woman." You wouldn't believe how often I hear that and everytime I hear it, I want to commit felonious assault against the speaker. Is that how you spell felonious? Is it feloneous?
