    i'm making myself too vulnerable i think. one day i'm going to post a beat thread to which there will be a mass amount of "well, look on the bright side, everything happens for a reason imo" posts.

    "brb"
    Half the time the person never comes back. Why dont you just say "hey gotta run, peace"

    "its too big"
    Srsly bitch, its too late for that now, its going in one way or another.

    I actually don't hate it, i think it's hilarious in it's ability to be used anywhere and mean nothing.

    everything happens for a reason
    its quite offensive as well. Like its comforting to know my family just got brutally murdered for 'a reason'

    i really hate 'step up to the plate'.

    "Hot enough for ya??" ... no, I actually wished in was hotter so my balls would actually melt to my thigh

    people that say "ya know" after every damn sentence. ya know?

    Oh, and the worst..."Sir, I smell a strong odor of marijuana on you. I'm going to have to ask you to step outta the car" If I had a penney...

    I hate when people passively question a factual statement youve just made without offering any sort of support for their challenge or showing any interest in getting to the bottom of it. There are a few phrases that in context embody this disgustingly rude response:

    "Im not so sure about that"

    "I dont know about that.."

    "Im pretty sure thats not right"

    "That doesnt sound right"

    This chick Im friends with does it all the time and I fucking hate it, I feel like fucking chokin that bitch out everytime she does it. Its not that she is disagreeing with me, its that shes depriving me of knowledge she should be providing when disagreeing with me. Its an important way that people learn, through discussion. When you take that away from me I just think youre dumb and rude.
    You-- yes, you-- you're a cunt.

    First heard while camping with some retarded redneck friends of friends of friends... They would yell this word constantly as it if was the funniest thing ever. Yes, contracting the words "tomorrow" and "morning" into one annoying word is awesome.

    Fuck. I wanted to strangle them all every time they said it. But I refrained because I am sure they all owned guns.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    "Hun, could you do me a little favor"?

    Clinch factor = super-clamp whenever I hear that now.
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    Or people (especially newscasters) using "ironically" incorrectly. For example: "There's was an earthquake in California today, ironically, there was also one in Hawaii."

    Talking heads on ESPN and their stunning knowledge of sports with comments such as "scoring more points will help you win games", or "well they've beaten this team the last 2 games, so it's going to be very hard to win a third in a row."

    We used to have a Mariners broadcaster, Ron Fairly, who was especially bad with this.

    He had gems like:
    It's late in the game, we are down 10-9 "We may need to score in the double digits to win this one"
    and
    "This hitter really likes a fastball over the middle of the plate"

    yeah, I know what you mean.

    Even worse, I remember a while ago (maybe a month or 2ish), they were having one of those dialogues or something talking about Tiger Woods and his complete domination at the beginning of the year. He had another tournament and then one of the majors after that. One of the questions one of the person asked is if he should *purposely* not win the first tournament so he wouldn't be due to not win the major. obviously I don't remember all the specifics, but I'm quite sure it went something like that.

    The problem with all the ESPN shows (sportscenter most notably) is that they are all marketed towards kids and the very, very casual sports fan. they get way too worked up in the celebrity sports drama and sob/feel good stories, and their highlights and analysis leave a *lot* to be desired.

    NASA computers have a 200% redundancy. Meaning that for every calculation 3 computers process them separately, then "vote" on the best answer. Don't knock redundancy.

    I'm a geek. I understand redundancy. These examples were not even close to the same thing though.
