Your post changes everything, takes it to a whole new level, and it absolutely blows my feeble mind. You hit the nail on the head. Where else would you hit a nail?

I hate seeing and hearing these terms because they're simply not true. I've been seeing and hearing these expressions way too much lately. I'm sure you have others to add.

"This changes everything." No, it doesn't. Nothing, short of the earth being hit by a giant asteroid, changes everything.

"This will bring you to the next level." No, it won't - unless you're talking about an elevator or a flight of stairs. There is no next level. You either improve at something, or you don't. You don't read an article and become transported to some imaginary space.

"This will blow your mind." No, it won't. I might find it mildly interesting or amusing, but it's not going to affect my mind. That expression is what you might call click bait, but why would you want to click on something that would destroy your mind?

That's all for now.

Don’t worry Jerry. No, it won’t blow your mind😂

Me- Walking away while commenting "Cow's are shes. Maybe a transgender steer?"


Milking cows is not the easiest thing to do, though. Did attach the machinery at one time. That took oomph.

Jerry, I really don’t like “no worries” whatever happened to “you are welcome.”


I am always happy to say "you are welcome." The problem is, very few bother to say "thank you." I serve demo samples at Costco part time and maybe one out of ten say thank you. A lot of the rest don't even speak. Not even when I greet them.

These ubiquitous euphemisms are everywhere.

All things considered, these idioms are part of life and have a lifetime that will expire. But then again, all things are never considered.

And then there's always the ubiquitous, "let's invoke the MRA rule". That's the moving right along rule.
