If it goes without saying, then DO NOT SAY IT. This is one of only a handful of English expressions which says "What I am about to tell you is obvious, redundant, and unnecessary to tell you, but here goes anyway!" EDIT: also Maddox On Dumbest Phrases | ||

I always thought shotgun referred to sitting in the passenger seat so you can lean out the window and shoot preferrably with a shotgun. I know that's not exactly why people say it, but that's the root of it. | ||

Hence the term riding shotgun was born, so whenever someone wanted to call front passenger seat in the car, they called "SHOTGUN". From there it just spread to everything else I guess. | ||

It does mean that way (the cake), but it would be a lot less confusing if it were written "You can't eat your cake and still have it, too". Dumb phrase : "No offense, but...." | ||

The person sitting next to the driver carried a shotgun against indians and bandits, while the positions was called, "shotgun".

I'm a loan officer, and when I talk to first time home buyers, I walk them through the pros and cons of buying a home. This includes what a monthly hazard insurance bill might cost and the tax break they get from the government. I have to say "I'm not an insurance agent, but" and "I'm no CPA, but" just to let them know I'm giving them an estimate, and to cover my ass.

In high school especially. Actually come to think of it I heard a lot of racist stuff in high school, seemed like a lot of my semi-friends (if you know what I mean) felt comfortable to be 'real' with me about black people... I don't think they knew my little sister is black -_- Another one is "I'm not racist; one of my friends is [ethnic group]!" as if knowing a black kid in one of your classes suddenly means that it is LOGICALLY IMPOSSIBLE for all that stuff you said to have been racist No one ever thinks they're racist unless they're like in the Klan or something (and they wouldn't call it racism... they'd justify it, just like all the 'lesser' racists). I'm not anti-racial-joking-around or anything, I'm talking about people who are pretty blatantly racist but don't think they possibly could be. | ||

In sweden there are people abusing "ba" or "bah" (doesn't really mean anything but emphasizes a point, or an action or a statement when telling someone.) There are a few others as well. I'm glad my mom explained very clearly what she thought about such language and people speaking like that. You come across as less intelligent and won't be taken as seriously. Of course I use it sometimes with friends, but it's still a scourge. | ||

Similarly, expressions like pwnd is still cute imo . | ||

"get a life" That is sooo overused. People only say it when they have nothing better to say about a topic they think is uncool and want to sound superior by saying that they have far better things to do than whatever the person recieving the comment was doing. Sometimes the comment can be valid, but most of the time, it is just a weak attempt at dissing somebody. It just annoys me everytime I hear it. | ||

If you think about it it's not that hard to come up with reasons why communism in Soviet, China, Cuba or whatever doesn't make for the best society. There are lots of flaws like the lack of freedom, not too efficient economic system etc so it's not perfect in theory at all. If you talk about some pure marxist theory you can't really say there has been a society modeled after it. (And of course it shouldn't be too hard to find weak points in it either given it's 150 years old.) edit: spelling | ||

If it's used where the person is saying something like, "It may or may not make a difference.." as if they are unsure, does that bother you? Because that's the only time it would really make sense to me to use it. It's not really a phrase or anything, but I hate when people pronounce antifreeze as "antefreeze," that drives me nuts. I hate the saying "I'm going to grab a bite to eat," or any variation of that. It's so stupid... So you only had ONE bite of food, did you? Why not just say "I stopped to get something to eat?" I also hate it when people say "guess what" and then don't allow me to guess; it's mostly used in a situation where guessing isn't even needed. | ||

My peeve: Using the word "literally" incorrectly. It is NOT meant to be used to strengthen your point. It doesn't mean "VERY"... it means LITERALLY, as in, NOT FIGURATIVELY. and as someone said, sportscasters are the worst offenders. Also, only people in New England will get me when I say this, but "I'm all set" This is what every person in a restaurant or store will say to you and it's totally frigging ambiguous. They come up to you ... "are you all set?" Um, do you mean that I am all set cause I don't need anything else, or do you mean I am all set to order my food? Jeebus... and it's so pervasive here that I find myself saying it back to people. Damn them all to hell. By the way, good thread | ||

They come up to you ... "are you all set?" Um, do you mean that I am all set cause I don't need anything else, or do you mean I am all set to order my food? Jeebus... and it's so pervasive here that I find myself saying it back to people. Damn them all to hell. By the way, good thread That's not just NE, though. There are tons of people who do that down here, too. It doesn't bother me too much, because normally it's pretty obvious what they're talking about. "Are you all set to go?" etc.. | ||

If you talk about some pure marxist theory you can't really say there has been a society modeled after it. (And of course it shouldn't be too hard to find weak points in it either given it's 150 years old.) edit: spelling True, but i ment that if you would imply it over time, covered all possibly things that can go wrong and so on, its still something built by humans, and we fuck things up. The real question is if you can forsee those things in theory (and thus proving your point, that it isnt a valid " works in theory .." ) , or if you forsee those things, but it still manages to go wrong? Can you have pure communism in one country and capitalism (is that the right word? freely translating from swedish here ) in another ?Edit - some smiley who wasnt suppose to be there. | ||

you're = contraction for you are your = possessive indicating ownership Similarly, its and it's is along the same lines - its = possessive, it's = it is Similar to "I couldn't care less", "For all 'intensive' purposes" is incorrect - it should be "For all intents and purposes." Also, you don't "wet your appetite" or "peak your interest", its "whet your appetite, pique your interest" | ||

Normally people are more specific with that phrase, though it gets used a lot like you were complaining about. Normally it's accompanied by a specific that they were wondering about. "Are you set to order," stuff like that, but I've heard a lot of people leave the specific part off and just say, "are you guys all set?" That happens the most at stores, though. You go up to someone and they ask "are you all set?" and you wonder for a second what they're talking about, and if you're in a particularly bad mood, you might question as to what you might be set on... | ||

Funny how you note she's blonde. I can't think of a specific phrase that people like her would use all the time, but people like that really piss me off. There was this bitch in an English class of mine, she was dumb as all hell, but she thought she was really smart, and she'd speak really slow and deliberately like "listen to how smart and sophisticated I am, even though I'm talking out of my ass," type stuff. The only thing I remember her saying is about the character from some book we read as a class which was, "His life did a complete 360," by which she meant that he had turned his life around. Being the smartass I always was in school I quickly corrected her and told her it was a 180 that he had done, which made my teacher laugh, along with the rest of the class, but I'm sure you get the type of person I'm writing about. | ||

I really hate it when people try to keep a non self-deprecatory running joke going. If you're joking about yourself, fine, but when the joke is at someone else's expense and you repeat it over and over and over again, it just gets to be mean and completely unfunny. People don't even try to be imaginative--they just repeat insults. It's stupid. | ||

"I died right then and there" - one my brother says often. Any variation of dying, when not meant literally, is stupid. What's worse is when people tack on "literally" somewhere in the phrase and don't mean it. "Like" "Retarded" - to describe things in a derogatory way that is also out of context. "Plethora" - I catch casters and even my teachers misusing it. No, it does not mean "a lot" or "myriad." It means TOO much. Oh, so there's a plethora of viewers and you would like your stream to have less? Or maybe Starcraft 2 has a plethora of strategies available and you want the game reduced to one strategy per race? People have to stop misusing this word. | ||

god this quote is so dumb. it's not profound or insightful or anything. it just gives two very obvious possibilities that when added together have a probability of 1. it's like saying, you either starve or you eat. you either go to bed hungry or you stay awake long enough to eventually eat something. you either take a dump or hold it in long enough to hurt. OF COURSE you either die a hero or you live long enough to become a villain. god dammnit you are gonna die eventually, so one of two situations will be true when you die - you're a hero or you're a villain. man, it's a great movie and ledger's performance was legendary, but this is such a dumbfuck quote for a movie this good. | ||

It's now very common to hear people say, "I'm rather offended by that", as if that gives them certain rights. It's no more than a whine. It has no meaning, it has no purpose, it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. "I'm offended by that." Well, so fucking what?' —Stephen Fry | ||

How can the person know if my regular self is better suited for any such occasion? The only time when people try to act like someone else is when they are unsatisfied with their regular self and are trying to change certain aspects of their personality and attitude. Then someone comes along and says "be yourself" instead of giving actual advice - and there's a fuckton of it to give. | ||

My pet peeve (one of many anyway) is "would of, could of, should of".. It's HAVE ffs! Would've = would have! Would of what? Of fucking what? You would of stupid be made? It's so obviously wrong and nonsensical yet almost a majority of people for whom English is the first language can't seem to grasp that nowadays. In fact it's so common a misconception that I'd be stunned if someone didn't call me out over this. | ||

It's like when someone wants something to always go their way. "It's not okay for other people to enforce their beliefs on me, but I am against abortion so no one can have abortions." For the longest time I thought the phrase should be "cut your cake and eat it too" referring to when two kids are fighting over the biggest piece, so you let the first kid cut the cake and the second kid choose which piece he wants. | ||

"You either die a villain, or live long enough to see yourself become the hero" should also be "obvious" by your logic. That quote is obviously true if the person in question is/was a hero, but that's not the point >.< right, it says something really obvious and uninsightful in a profound way, and everyone's all "oohhhh," like it's some completely new idea that no one's ever though of before. that's why it pisses me off. obviously every hero will either die while he's still a hero, or become a villain before that happens. it's just so simple that i don't get why people are amazed by it. and yeah, if it was reversed to "you either die a villain.." it'd be just as stupid. if the point was to make the audience say "oohhh wow i never realized that! now that's something cool to think about!" then yes, i agree that it's stupid because it is so obvious, yet tries to present itself in a profound, epic manner. | ||

"That's racist!" for bringing up ANY sort of topic that deals with race, even if it's not particularly derogatory. My friend often says this for things (in a joking way still, but it gets old) that I might bring up such as "More black people play in the NBA than white people." | ||

Where that one stems from I think is if you say would've, it sounds to a lot of people (depending on accent) as would of. If you don't really think about it and type how it sounds, it's quite a simple mistake to make. Infact it's a mistake made so many times that I wouldn't be surprised if it could be counted as correct due to an evolution of the language. It's happened so much especially recently and although wrong, everyone knows what it actually is so it could quite possibly become accepted. | ||

Plethora can mean a surfeit or a profusion of, which means an abundance rather than too much. The connotation of Plethora isn't necessarily too many (like the word excess) but more like more than enough to be considered acceptable (an abundance or teeming). Back on track: I really dislike when I hear people try to use old south phrases in jest, but fail at it. More than you can shake a stick at, good ole' boy, etc. are all misused horribly -_-;;. | ||

In proper context, using vocabulary that warrants it, it's perfectly acceptable. The majority of times that I've seen it, however, is as a substitute for "while" in common, everyday language. I don't know if people thinks it makes a sentence sound smarter, or they think it supposed to be used everywhere, but the end result is language like: "I read the paper whilst I'm pissing." "I'll make a salad whilst you're barbecuing." If you're going to use pretentious language, please do it properly. | ||

The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid.

Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue.

Also, my friend says things that are blatantly stupid even though hes headed to be valedictorian next year lol. Hes easily one of the better speakers in my school but he says things like "Intercourse sexually" in his debates and its great. He has also done dumb things like trying to torrent LoL | ||

You "only" live once suggests that you don't do anything else except live for the one time. You live "only" once (yloo) is more apt because it suggests that the action that is limited to the one occurrence is the living, but you are open to doing other things while living (such as walking, eating, and sleeping). To summarize, I state that people should not say "yolo," they should say "yloo," or YA-LOO! | ||

OF COURSE you either die a hero or you live long enough to become a villain. god dammnit you are gonna die eventually, so one of two situations will be true when you die - you're a hero or you're a villain. man, it's a great movie and ledger's performance was legendary, but this is such a dumbfuck quote for a movie this good. I think you're missing the point of the quote, which is to convey the idea that the passage of time (and the events that occur in that passage) eventually corrupt even the most noble of heroes. It's not just "You either die a hero or a villain" (note that I agree that the quote does imply that, but that's not the main message of the quote at all). Rather, it's "No ideal of heroism can stand against the corrupting influence of a fundamentally evil/unjust world". That's why you either die while those ideals are still alive within you, or you inevitably fall from grace. Obviously, that's just Dent's mindset and it's meant to convey how broken Dent was at that point, and to say that it's just a trite statement of obviousness doesn't do it justice. | ||

When I first heard that expression I didn't understand it well either, and don't like it now. I know generally what you're saying, but is you're question rhetorical? If the question isn't rhetorical, the answer (at least as far as I understand) is that a person wants their cake as decoration because it's a pretty cake (perhaps one of the nice themed ones which one sees on the internet or TV). Obviously once a cake is eaten, it can no longer be decoration.

My pet peeve (one of many anyway) is "would of, could of, should of".. It's HAVE ffs! Would've = would have! Would of what? Of fucking what? You would of stupid be made? It's so obviously wrong and nonsensical yet almost a majority of people for whom English is the first language can't seem to grasp that nowadays. In fact it's so common a misconception that I'd be stunned if someone didn't call me out over this. This is incorrect (unless your are an Classical physician of course), in its modern sense 'plethora' can mean: 3. Usu. with of. Originally in pejorative sense: an excessive supply, an overabundance; an undesirably large quantity. Subsequently, and more usually, in neutral or favourable sense: a very large amount, quantity, or variety. Oxford English Dictionary More to the point, the meaning of a word develops over time and through usage. Literally, if enough people use a word in a communicative way (that is, in an acceptable fashion to the receiver) then the entry in the dictionary will change. A dictionary is a recording of language, not an authority in the strictest sense. | ||

Maybe "Discretely Instanced Team-based Competitive RPG" would be good, but there's some problems: - long - contains hyphenated word - contains slightly "advanced" words - contains the term "RPG", which I hate for games that are currently called RPGs. This word on it's own is a whole new can of worms. It needs a replacement, but it's hard and/or still inaccurate to replace with things like "Action Game with Character Progression" or others. | ||

Are we a little Honestly I am pretty sure you could find a ton of poor phrases by going through any medical record dictated at 3 AM. I know I have dictated my fair share of idiocy. As an aside: It annoys me greatly if a native speaker of English messes up some of the more basic grammatical things (i.e. so basic that I actually catch it). Most of them are even unable to speak any other languages leaving them to focusing on only one - how hard can it be? (The same really goes for Danes messing up Danish- and that sadly happens quite often ) | ||

If you watch the game and have a minimum of a clue what the game you are watching is about you will know how the game stands before the caster says it. Wrong. Casters are supposed to add excitement to the game. Games aren't over until they're over, if you ever watch the GSL, you will know as well as I do that calling games before they're over turns out to be a big mistake from time to time, not to mention it's disrespectful to the player(s). Casters calling GG before the game is over removes any excitement rather than add to it, doing that to a game that's not over yet is beyond stupidity. | ||

"omfg" are you really religious?? "XD" when does any face ever look like that?? "I dont care" If you dont care, dont play a game... "its just a game why do u want to win" Why do you even play a multiplayer game if you dont care about winning?! "IF anyone can do it its...." NO! Shut up! If hes dead, hes dead. "omg" SERIOUSLY ARE YOU RELIGIOUS BECAUSE THAT WOULD be THE ONLY REASON AS TO WHY YOU CALL ON A DIETY OF SOME SORT... "OMG" *loading my gun* "bich" If youre going to insult me, at least learn to spell a 5 letter word. " " are you flirting with me? Are you being condescending? Do you want to have sex with me? Either way you should be able to explain it without constantly blinking."look at that multitasking" when a terran shift-queued up drops. The feeling I get when somebody complements T on multitasking and they end up dropping on top of a spore, is priceless. "Im not a racist but..." "Youre no longer allowed to say that <Insert racist slur for an ethnic minority> are ruining this country" Of course youre allowed to utter your uneducated inbred racist opinion, but be prepared to get responses.. Not everyone's going to agree with you, It doesnt mean that people are stupid for being "politically correct" "This country is too politically correct" again, if everyones disagreeing with you, it might be because youre wrong. No? "Take my like..." NOONE CARES ABOUT YOUR LIKE. "your blabla is bad and you should feel bad" Cool youre capable of copy pasting a meme. Why is this guy/girl getting upvoted?? were playing a game of dota/hon when the callhost is inviting someone else to the call, then 3 of them proceeds to discuss something else, resulting in lacking of mapawareness, coordination, strats and on top of it they fuck up my focus because I cant stop listening.... "its just a game we are being social XD" Thats when I stopped playing with those guys. | ||

"It is what it is" when used as an attempt to be profound, but in reality used as nothing more than a lame tautology. Of course it is what it is. It can't be what it's not. "You had to be there" when trying to tell me how amazing something was, because you've clearly given up on getting me excited and trying to articulate an anecdote, as I clearly wasn't there. Bring me next time, dammit. | ||

Yeah, some subcultures and niche genres were thriving a lot more in the mainstream in certain generations; however, music is in the best state it has ever been. Thanks to the internet and streaming services, so many unique genres and bands are getting the exposure that they wouldn't have gotten even just five years ago. Even bands who have been around for decades are just now getting popular. There's something for everyone and it's relatively easy to find what you want (back then, you had to get invested in tape trading and subscribing to zines). People who say "I was born in the wrong generation" now have access to entire databases of music from their favorite decade; allowing them to discover bands that they wouldn't have even heard of if they actually did grow up in that generation. Also, thanks to people discovering hidden gems with the internet, all sorts of genre revival scenes have been popping up all over the place - e.g. occult rock revival. However, I guess if you wanted to experience the whole package, like wearing colorful neon spandex and tons of hairspray while watching your favorite band live when they were young and at their prime, I guess you have somewhat of an argument. | ||

I think its turned into the new age form of greeting almost... My argument mainly comes from how English textbooks in non-english speaking world still starts the whole greeting out as "Hi, how are you? Nice to meet you", and its really odd to hear it nowadays simply because no one uses it I use "Hey" or "Hey man" or "Sup dude" these days because I had a friend complain to me about how cold I was on skype when I only replied with a "?" Personal preferences and stuff though. I guess it comes down to how you use "whats up" or reading the person who said it - Is he laid back? Is he still maintaining eye contact or did he just past by and greeted me? Are we the only people in this new converstion (e.g. friend talking with someone and you walked in) Of course if you feel obligated to answer and you want to meet a new friend anyways you can always treat it as an ice-breaker instead of wondering so much about it. Obviously if you just want to return the greeting just nod your head, say hi or something similar, and just keep moving. EDIT: How the fuck did I start writing a strategic approach on "whats up?" | ||

A lot of what is popular these days is considered crap by those that think "i was born in the wrong generation". Part of me thinks that was probably true for any popular music in any generation, but another part of me wants to stab a girl that has never read a book in her life when she tells me how poetic Lil Wayne's lyrics are. | ||

But, yeah, if it bothers you to hear people talk of 'weighing' 50kg, just imagine they said they have weigh the same as 50kg. The information conveyed is clear, even if they didn't properly use the technical terms. | ||

Holy shit, you don't know what the problem is and act like a smartass about it. I'm personally under the way of thinking that if you recognize a problem, it affects you, and you don't do anything about it then you're part of the problem. Saying that just picks a bone with me. If someone says that to me I tend to end the conversation very quickly and move on. For example, once someone was talking about mmorpgs, and then CLAIMS to have never played mmorpgs, 'but the problem is...' ...........holy shit. | ||

Firstly: "The ____ scene." This one is just anoying to hear every 5 seconds when you have someone talking about the 'Starcraft 2 scene'... I prefer calling it the "Community". Then: the word "Foreigner" when talking about a non Korean Starcraft players. God damn it they are not foreign!!!! Call them 'non-Korean' or by their own nationality. Starcraft 2 doesn't just center in Korea... it's globally spectated and globally played. It even ticks me off even more when a non Korean is calling another non Korean a 'foreigner'. It wouldn't be so bad if he was a Korean calling another Korean 'foreigner', but since he himself is a 'foreigner' too, it pisses me off! Just call them non-Korean like yourself asshole. | ||

I hate it when my friends say this. You know it's the last time you'll likely see each other and they won't let you have your moment of grievance. I guess I moved a lot as a child and I hated leaving friends and having to make new ones. I only have a few friends and a little brother that I think I'll know forever. And I'm sometimes afraid that my friends now will drift apart in the future. | ||

Seriously I saw one of my friends with an album of Team Fortress 2 screen shots with a title of "I'm so nerdy." C'mon, if you were playing Dwarf Fortress, I could see what you're talking about. But Team Fortress is a cartoony FPS. The only nerdy thing about it is that it's on a computer, and it's not the 80's anymore, computers aren't just for nerds. Here, let me give a couple of examples of nerdy vs not nerdy: Watching the Big Bang Theory - Not nerdy Solving Calculus problems in your free time - Nerdy Playing Legend of Zelda - Not nerdy Installing Arch Linux on a Raspberry Pi - Nerdy Reading Comic books - Not nerdy Writing Regular expressions - Nerdy Playing a Tabletop RPG - Not nerdy Looking up Latin and Greek roots of words - Nerdy Things I listed in the "not nerdy" category may be things nerds also enjoy. But that's not what makes them nerdy. And you can certainly enjoy all those things without being nerdy at all. But the things I listed in the second category are different. A guy who isn't nerdy at all will just not do any of the things in the "nerdy" category if he doesn't have to. | ||

When I was in school people might have known who Bilbo or Gollum was because our grade 3 teacher would read it every year. But if I mentioned 'Frodo' I would get funny or blank looks.

Even once it's explained, it doesn't make sense to me linguistically. You CAN, in fact, have cake and eat it too. While you're eating the cake, you're still in possession of it. What you can't do is eat the cake and then expect to keep it preserved. Secondly, we nowadays often express dining in terms of 'having' i.e., "I'm having steak", which makes the phrase doubly confusing. I can understand it would have made sense four hundred years ago, but it doesn't today. Just say "You can't have it both ways" instead. On March 06 2013 02:47 TheZanthex wrote: "It is what it is." Seriously, the most useless phrase of all time. It's not even profound or anything. It's just a declarative statement, for christ's sake! I think this one has value.

Nowadays this acronym is overused to the point where nobody laughs out loud when they write it. In most cases, people write it for no reason at all. The only purpose of this expression that comes into my mind is to indicate lack of maturity, thought and social skills. Few things seem more disturbed than a person considering something funny and then simply saying "lol" with barely any change to their facial expression. | ||

Lol you can spend however much you want on education, it won't change the fact that in this age of the internet so few kids give a shit about learning anything anymore. On a similar note, I'd like to add "space exploration is dumb, i can't believe they spend taxpayer money on worthless bullshit that yields no result". I kinda paraphrased that. In fact I don't think the people who oppose space exploration so vehemently are intelligent enough to know the word "yield", but I digress... | ||

It's not you, not your fault, you didn't really do anything wrong, the other guy just suited her type better. Lots of other possible issues it can be, it's a pretty true statement anyways. Only phrases I don't like are ones that make you seem sheltered, and ones where 25+ y/o people making sound cool, or funny with jokes or phrases you've heard 8 years ago when you were in junior high or high school. Geez other day someone I meet at the bar asks me: "If you met Lady Gaga, would you poke her face?" (poke-r-face like the song if you didn't know). Like is that supposed to be funny, what? I don't like talking to people that don't have a life and can't think. Boring people can be okay as long as they have a deep personality, people who act like they're all this when everyone is annoyed at them, have nothing going in their lives etc, are just bleh, gross. | ||

to me, these sort of statements feel like they're to fill the void that's left from somebody's hate for the game, or the hate for the people that play the game. i'm no sports fan any longer, but i've heard some pretty awful horror stories about how fans act over teams in the same sports league. when our local hockey team loses in the stanley cup, people go full-on vicious. a sport is a sport... it was created at some point because there was some interest for it, the fact that the culture and rules and preserved to this day is a gift really. "Dont hate the game, hate the player.".... no lol don't hate the sport, hate yourselves for being bad-sports if you wanna be a game hipster, go singleplayer or fund your own game. people just play what they have an interest in and enjoy, there's no need for all the extra griefing/flaming. | ||

"U mad bro" and "trolling", especially when someone says they're "just trolling" as an excuse after they're made to look like an idiot. If you're a troll and don't care what people think, then it doesn't make sense to tell us you're a "troll". I really think it's a meaningless word, made by idiots, for idiots, to make themselves feel better. "Guns don't kill people". We all know guns aren't sentient robot-beings with their own free-will, if that's the point. But it doesn't mean they aren't a violent menace to society, and it certainly doesn't mean they aren't capable of killing people, even without human intentions (they're called "gun accidents"). It isn't just piss-poor semantics, it's a completely absurd and intellectually-corrupt statement. If I was Tyrant Supreme Ruler of the World, I would make a law decreeing that all weapon owners must appreciate and acknowledge the function behind their weapons' design. If you can't do that, or outright deny the function of weaponry by saying something so blatantly false as "Guns don't kill people", then your name gets put on a list and my World-Government goons come and take your guns by force, using their superior numbers and weaponry. If you resist, then semantic-mangling statements about the lethality of weapons will be put to the test in a very real way. "ROFL". No, you're not.

Likely however you have one inch crust on each side, so toppings for each pizza would equate to be a radius of 5 vs 3. So the medium pizza would have about 2.78 times as much topping as the personal. | ||

In that case, 'good' is a matter of opinion.... Thus if the masses have a collective opinion that something is good, then the collective opinion has deemed it good, and thus it is generally considered good. A differing opinion doesn't matter, as the common opinion is still collectively good. | ||

Now i am tempted to measure the next pizza i get. But i am kind of scared because i am pretty sure that i will be missing quite a lot of pizza. Actually, i found a pizza crate from yesterday. Considering that the 40*60 cm pizza i ate yesterday was apparently delivered in a crate which measures 40*60 on the outside, and did not fill that one completely, i guess 35*55 would be an appropriate approximation of it's size. Which means i got cheated out of about a fifth of the pizza i deserved. Bastards. | ||

When my parents were planning to go to Japan, they went to the bank to exchange money for the trip. The conversation with the teller went something like this: 'Hi, we would like to exchange money' 'Oh, where are you going?' 'Japan' 'That sounds nice, how long is the drive?' At which point, my parents basically stood there in stunned silence for several seconds. | ||

Yeah, how dare we not enjoy overly simplistic, formulaic and generic music with little songwriting and no technicality involved in the process of making it? Moreover, how dare we have a different taste than the masses? | ||

Anyway, I get really annoyed with the overused internet meme language and post language. Regardless of real life or internet forums, when you are discussing something, putting "This." adds nothing. I guarantee your next ten sentences would have led me to believe you agreed with the other person's viewpoint. Also when Every. Single. Word. Is. Its. Own. Sentence. It's annoying to read and awkward when people try to talk like that. And my absolute most annoying phrase that I think is absolutely stupid, is "Stupid arguments are stupid." Yes, the very first adjective told me you thought the argument was stupid. I get that it's suppose to add emphasis, but it's such a demeaning and meaningless statement. | ||

Instead of sounding like a gay 14 yr old fanboy (which i admit i am, apart from being gay and 14) I'm gonna put in my 2 cents. "no, im not lying" when clearly the person is. I mean, like just be honest ffs! | ||

Used it quite a lot. It's not stupid, it's just rude. It's like saying you are too dumb/(not knowledgeable enough) to understand what I'm arguing. And that shit happens quite often. | ||
