Good one!  Yeah, I forgot about how "everyone" is here for me!  The car dealers, the fast food restaurants, the electric company, the cable company, the banks...  It warms my heart how they're all here for me!  Smiley Frustrated


LOL! The advertising geniuses at work.....the only business that "cares" for me is my auto insurance company. They are giving me 20% off the next two monthly premiums due to lack of traffic and accidents "in these troubled times".  Another phrase I hate. (not theirs).

[ Edited ]

So many of these overused and trite phrases are essentially courtesy of the ad industry... The very same ad industry that has virtually ruined television and radio... As I said elsewhere, for all these disingenuous buzz phrases, so many others over the years, for tiresome and annoying commercials of all types and for a vast number of so many other reasons, the ad industry has long made my hot list for being among the very lowest of the bottom feeders...

Re: Phrases I am sick,sick,of hearing

I can't stand hearing 

  • Challenging times (lets face it the challenge for many is going to last well beyond our stay at home orders)
  • We are all in this together
  • Quarantine (I'm pretty sure people are calling what they are doing a quarantine but really it isn't, especially when I see them posting on FB about going to the grocery store multiple times per week)
  • Wash your hands and cover your mouth if you cough or sneeze (really I learned that in elementary school)
  • Stay Home (as if when because that person said it those who haven't are all of a sudden going to listen.  If they haven't stayed home while ordered by their state they aren't going to start because you told them.)

I can't wait to hear the positive phrases people come up with to replace all of these.

On QVC earlier with Isaac and Jennifer Coffey, they kept saying:  wear it now, wear it when this is over.  🙄
