Stupid sayings

Buy a better knife. There are knives made just for cutting bread and they slice it up real nice and quick.

Most of the sayings in this thread are either being evaluated in literal terms (apparently people aren’t familiar with idioms), or based on the fact that they are often misused. I don’t think that inherently makes the saying stupid.

“I’m doing me”

WTF!?

You in the wrong pocket, homie.

“myspace sucks, facebook is better”

“I was sweating worse than a whore in church.”

“It’s hotter than two rats fucking in a wool sock.”

“Let’s do this like Brutus”. I’ve always hated this one.

“It’ll all work itself out in the end” I wonder if someone said that to Christopher Reeve after he fell off that horse.

  • oh that went well…

For a minute there, I was expecting the bus to stop on the guy, and you to jump to the back of it, hitting it while screaming “Wrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy”. Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure style.

  • seriousness aside: *I’m independent. *Black women say this WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much. I don’t even think that any other type of women say this. And whats’ funny is how music seems to support this so much.

“I’m going to play some Tekken” while playing SSFIV.

“Ono-san”

“It’s right in front of you”

and I agree to hate “It is what it is”

Yo I don’t get that bird in the hand quote… Someone explain it to my slow mind.

“We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.”

Wtf is wrong with that one?

It’s funny because most black women who brag about their independence are guilty of one or more of the following:

  1. Collecting some sort of welfare (SSI, EBT, Section 8 etc.)

  2. Living with some man they probably don’t like too much so they can continue to frivolously spend their money.

  3. Claim to be independent but a man is worthless if he doesn’t do everything for her (pay her bills, clean up after her, drive her everywhere). Contradiction much?

  4. Has multiple offspring by multiple partners. She may drop them off at her parents house on a Saturday night so she can go clubbing. Yeah, you’re really independent with someone else assuming your responsibilities; so YOU can act irresponsibly!

Baltimore is infested with morbidly obese black women who wear atrocious bright colored hair weaves. Tight clothes that conform to their disgusting misshapen bodies. Or even worse, the shirts have cleavage exposure and you can see the stretch marks on their boobs :wasted:

If a woman doesn’t look like that in Baltimore, she’s cute until she opens her mouth.

Holy shit. I don’t even know where to begin with this one but I could probably do my master’s thesis doing research on this post.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. I understand the nature behind it but still.

It means having something now for certain is more valuable than possibly having something later.

Financial equivalent: A dollar today is always worth more than a dollar tomorrow.

Now that I understand it… I’m in this guy’s boat. <-- Oh snap! Another idiom!

I like your avatar. It’s quite hypnotic.

Overused: the goddamn word “EPIC”

If everything is fucking epic, that takes away from the meaning of the word. You know that steak you just ate? It was not epic. Neither was that movie you just saw, unless it was like a version of Homer’s Odyssey that hasn’t been made yet. If you just hooked up with a dime, that might qualify as epic… unless you were drunk, because it was prob a grenade and you just thought that shit was epic because you wanted to put your dick in a hole.

And don’t even get me started on “epic fail” or “epic win”… stop saying that shit already.

… I lurk the Teamliquid forums (starcraft) and if you thought pringles, salty, mortons, bodied, murk, free, on blast, and on notice was bad on SRK then you haven’t seen TL and “epic.”

:sad:

Sadly our overuse of these words is due to the minority being the majority:sad:, I am still not convinced that there is a single white person that posts here…
