Stupid sayings

I thought it was get out the kitchen. That makes sense too me. I have never heard anyone say “Get off the sidewalk” lol. Sounds like some silly shit to me.

I really hate the “WHen you point at someone, there are three fingers pointing back at you.”

  1. most people are going to respond by pointing with their fingers pointing out, nulling that point
  2. and your point is? So what if there are three of my own fingers pointing at me? I possibly didn’t even have shit to do with what transpired, so its impossible to blame me (in some cases, lol)
    3)I dunno about anybody else, but when I point my finger, my other fingers are curled in a way they point perpendiculary to my index finger, or at least not parallel.

and “It takes one to know one” No it doesn’t. I don’t have to be a lyin ass dude for me to know that you a lyin ass dude.

I guess it makes sense, but it seems they got lazy, cause you are not going to be perfect. You usually use the term “The limit approaches” infinite, not it equals infinite.

And as for the “Like they always say…” Its a direct contradiction of “Don’t follow the crowd”

I actually did not know this. Thank you.

Let’s not cry over spilled milk!

Another phrase I hate is, “it could be a whole lot worse” or some variation. Usually one person will voice their problem(s), and somebody else will compare it to something worse (and completely irrelevant), like starving African children, to make their problem seem insignificant. It is merely a polite way of saying “shut up and stop whining”

“You’re creepy”

Mostly spouted by girls

“You don’t know them”

Can you just tell me who it is?

You must be that dude that kept following my friend’s groupie at the club last week.

“What doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger.” Fuck you. Got hit by a car and I couldn’t lift a building.

"Man you got lucky. I only lost because I was trying to beat you in a certain way."
I hate this excuse or something along those lines too. Sure, its okay if its just casuals, but when you’re playing in a tournament or playing money matches, get the hell out of here with that shit.

The trees are mad at us

Beavis: Why is it called taking a dump? You’re not taking it anywhere…

profound

my world has been turned upside down!

yeah, i fuckin hate this saying too. well, no shit i don’t know them, thats why i’m asking in the first place.

I think most sports cliches can make this list. So here’s another couple:

“They weren’t playing to win, they were playing not to lose.”
"[He won because] he just wanted it more."

And my favorite analysis of high-scoring offenses:

“They try to beat you by outscoring you.”

I have Michael Jordan to thank for refuting the following:

“There’s no ‘I’ in ‘team.’” Jordan’s response was, “Yeah, but there’s an ‘I’ in ‘win.’”

That sounds like a Biff Tannen-ism.

“Turn the other cheek…” – so your enemy can punch or slap the other side of your face too? Good job on looking like a chump little bitch that will never retaliate in any way. It’s reasonable to at least defend yourself.

“Love thy enemy…” —ehhhhh not going to happen. If I consider someone an “enemy”, I’d be just fine with them randomly dropping dead, or just fading from existence completely. Generally speaking…let’s look at your average terrorist group. It would indeed be much better if we could magically erase them from the world in an instant…erase all records of them as well, to prevent future wannabe groups trying to resurrect the cause. That works for me. Imagine if someone molested you as a child. Would you honestly be able to forgive and love them? What about a random thug that murdered a family member, or someone who kidnapped and raped your child? Forgive and love them? Please. That isn’t the reality of human nature. Then again, I’m probably more hateful than the average person.

“I can do bad all by myself.” --I just hate this because of how terrible the sentence sounds. It’s “ugly”…like something a 5 year old (that can barely talk) would say. Pitiful.

“Murruk”(for “milk”) —Come on, people. There is no “r” in that word!

Man, I’ve been saying “what the fuck is so great about sliced bread” for years.

In some situations, that’s exactly what you do. In Magic: The Gathering tournaments there are time limits to every round. In certain match ups you may find yourself playing for the draw by time out as opposed to trying to rush things and win. Some notable chess figures have said that in the game, white has to play to win and black has to play for a draw because white has a 4-5% advantage over black in the game (this taken from the win-loss records of the colors over many tournaments). Playing to a draw is very real in many situations: fairly prevalent in politics too.

Have you ever tried slicing bread on your own? It’s not as easy as it seems.

Yeah, I thought about that. It’s also true in things like World Cup play in which a tie can net you a point in the standings and prevents your opponent from gaining points themselves. I meant it just sounds stupid when sports commentators use it in a game that will necessarily end in a W or L, particularly hoops and NFL and NCAA football.
