Time to Retire These Expressions
Sep 22, 2020 08:41:06 #
I seem to be watching a lot of TV lately, and I'm noticing lots of expressions that should be retired. I'm sure you can add to this list.
I’m on it.
Not even light.
Life as we know it.
As we speak.
Price point.
No problem.
Liquid water.
You don’t have to do this.
How much (time, fuel, food, ammo) is left. "Not enough." or "You don't want to know." It's always an important question, but the person asking doesn't get an answer.
The bad guy is threatening to blow up the city or send a busload of kids over a cliff. The good guy has his/her gun pointed at him, trying to talk him out of it (He's the bad guy!). Rather than just shoot him, he/she gives the bad guy time to do his worst.
I watched a disappointing disaster movie last night. The sun had gone wacky (technical term), and it was going to destroy the earth. I was rooting for the sun. Near the end, a scientist realized that he had a "+" rather than a "-" in his formula, so the sun would not destroy the earth. I was disappointed.
