The following idiomatic phrases need to be put to death immediately

Recommended Posts

1. Saying the opposite of what you mean, then saying "not." This was old and stupid when I was in high school, and that, my friends, was a very long time ago.

2. "Except the complete opposite of that."

3. any phrase that begins with a sarcastic, drawn out "Yeeeeeah . . . " as in "Yeeeeeah, about that . . . ." Some pf these phrases are still acceptable if you just drop the stupid drawn out "yeah"

4. The two most overused phrases of this political season: "double down" and "walk back." As In"Governor Romney said this completely over the top thing, and then, rather than walk it back, he doubled down on his comments." I almost threw up after typing that.

Feel free to add suggestions to this list, and I will let you know if the phrases belong on this list.

Just saw a new one in another thread: fixed it for you.

This was cute and snarky and oh so clever, but that was two years ago and now it is old and tired and makes you seem like a doosh.

Maybe you should take another hiatus from the board if you can't handle the internet?
