Re: Over-Used Phrases That Make Me Scream!

In addition to my previous post, I also can't stand when a person starts a review for an item with "I really wanted to like this" ....no kidding, you bought it, I figured you wanted to like it.

"Get over it" is my life's mantra! I get so tired of people making everything a life long crusade and never moving on from it. 

 

It's the life phrase my mother raised us with. We even have a sign! LOL

The "No problem" response when you thank someone for something rather than saying "You are welcome".  Saying "You are welcome" has a sense of graciousness, but "No problem" doesn't.


I'd give you 20 hearts for this if I could, Barefootwillow!  The only time I want to hear "No problem" is when I go to the doctor!

This is the one that caught my attention on cable news - so called experts, journalists, you name it, all begin their reply with "So"!

@Little Way:  You are so right! I've asked myself: who changed the rules? What ever happened to just saying: I called you, I'll contact you? When did we (society) start using the term "reach out?"
