Stupid phrases people actually say

[mel25]

Ax demanded I start a new thread. Who am I to argue?

I've always thought this one was pretty stupid.

"Stop crying or I'll give you something to cry about!"

I must respectfully disagree Mr. Burgold. I don't actually say that, but i know the feeling. One time my nephew was crying for, in my opinion, no reason. I actually felt better after I hit him, and I knew he was crying because I hit him. In all fairness, I am open minded to the possibility that there's somethin wrong with me.

It is what it is... man i hate that saying.

[Chicken Fried]

I hate when people say, "express yourself."

I get annoyned with sports announcers when they talk about injuries. I was watching the games this weekend and I think it was Moose who said this. A Cardinals player had gotten hurt and Mosse says, "Looks like he has a shoulder". Well no ****! Of course he has a shoulder, he has 2 shoulders!! Whats so hard about saying, looks like a shoulder injury? It just sounds dumb to say, "he has a shoulder" or "he;s out with a knee". Is it that hard to add injury to the end of it?

or when they need a break "he went to the sideline to take a blow"

worst ever is:

"I know, right?" and
"Really? Really?"

Well, I did tell Burgy once, "Express yourself!"

When he got all pissy about it, and started whining, I said,
"Aw quit crying, before I give you something to cry about!"

Afterward, I discovered, he could care less.

Which I felt was like, throwing me under the bus.

Oh well, it is what it is, and what not.

or when they need a break "he went to the sideline to take a blow"

Even better: "X comes in to give Y a blow."

"There's more than one way to skin a cat." Really? Are people going around skinning cats? Are there various competing techniques that are used?

Well you can case skin them, or you can skin them through the mouth. That's the only 2 ways I know of. I suppose you could split up the belly, but that's normally done after they're stretched and dried anyway.

How do you skin them through the mouth? I'm having a hard time picturing that one.

Only majorities can be racist.

"Could care less" ...pissed me off so much I started a thread about it!

[#98QBKiller]

"under attack" when used in news stories.

[JeffSchmeff]

I hate when people don't understand something you say and say "Do what?"

[RedskinsTime]

"I like the Capitals and Cowboys."

i heard that somewhere. is that some philosophical stuff, or do they that mean by definition people misuse the word? for example, by definition ignorant means not knowing, so since nobody knows everything, everybody is ignorant to a degree.
