Re: What cliche drives you crazy?
 

Being in sales, you hear cliches constantly. Sales guys pretty can have entire conversations consisting totally from cliches.

The best example was on the Office, when the intern turned boss (turned grunt) gave the following speech:

“Yeah i created a website...

Look, at the end of the day, apples to apples, flying at 30 thousand feet, this is a paper company.

And I don't want us to get lost in the weeds or into a beauty contest.

Convergence... viral marketing... we're going gorilla... We're taking it to the street, while keeping an eye on the street, Wall Street.

I don't want to reinvent the wheel here, in other words… it is what it is.

- Buying paper just became fun.”

"Back in the day." Why don't they just say "long, long ago and far, far, away." Both are equally stupid.

"National Champions" Why? They didn't play every college football team in the nation?

World Series Champions don't play every baseball team in the World. ;)

The phrase often uttered by surley young boys, often in response to a suggestion that they do something different. cut their hair, get a job, not disrespect their parents/teachers etc.

"I'm a grown ass man"

no, you're really not. You're 17. You're vaguely more than a boy, with that little patch of hair on your chin/upperlip, and a problem with authority. You've never done anything productive in your life, and think that everyone around you is against you. If I suggest you get a hair cut and shave the bloody mustach, you'd be surprised how far it'd get you.... sorry rant off.
