Hated Sayings

I know this rant has been done before, but one phrase has been used ad nauseum lately and I have to lodge a complaint - 'Nuff Said.

I fucking hate this dismissal, particularly when used in a heated debate. When someone makes a point and follows it with “nuff said” I want to reach into my monitor and throttle the arrogant bastard(s).

That’s all.

End of discussion. Case closed.

P.S. Everyone feel free to add any more or jump on my ass.

“Should I bulk or cut.”

“I can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking my head up a bull’s ass, but I’d rather take a butcher’s word for it.”

People say that all the time and man I get sick of hearing it!

No particular saying, but reading rediculous[sic!] in virtually every single thread.

I just want to jump on your ass. Nuff said.

Bulk. Nuff said.

I’ll take a raincheck on jumping on your ass, but I’ll throw in my vote:

Anything related to a shoe and bodyfat annoys the hell out of me.

Never in my life have I seen a joke beaten to death as severely as that one has…

I’m 6’ tall and weigh 130 lbs, but I can’t see my 6 pack. How much do I have to cut to see them?

Some of the trolls like to incite shitfights with little “pet names” for whoever they are baiting at the time. Seeing someone called “sparky” or “bucko” or whatever doesn’t really make me want to take the poster seriously, to say the least.

Especially when they think they’ve closed the circle on a “great argument” but haven’t. Infuriating.

“Same difference.” Fortunately, not as popular as it once was, but I still hear it once in a while.

“Stay the course”, “Fight them there so we don’t have to fight them here”, or just about anything else Dubya repeats over and over and over again.

Irregardless. Supposeably. And business related phrases such as – get all our ducks in a row, etc.

You’re just not thinking outside the box.

I’m adding another one - “Strawman”.

“I could care less” Really? Good for you.

“This movie has been edited for content and to run in the alloted time.” Hey, show me the movie, or don’t; but don’t remove parts you deem offensive or unimportant.

I’ll second whoever it was who mentioned “business buzzwords” Especially in IT: Synergy. Paradigms. Web 2.0. Mindshare. Virtual whatever. Enterprise-class. It’s all fucking bullshit to convince us to buy an underperforming but overpriced “solution” that will have us coughing up cash for years to come. A true “paradigm shift” would be a reasonably priced product that actually works as advertised.

Oh great, another “I hate when people say this” thread. I can’t wait for a certain saying to show up.

EDIT: Too late.

I hate the phrase “Thinking Outside the Box”.

Not because its used so often, but its not the way people need to think.

If I said “don’t think of blue”, but any other color. You would think of blue in comparison to your color (or the “Box”). This limits your thinking.

One must think of all the possible colors first, then discard “blue” (or the “Box”), to be able to see the spectrum of all solutions.

'Nuff Said :slight_smile:

I hate when people use the made up word Irregardless.
