"BOOYAH"

"School of Hard Knocks"

"He got game"

"The (years) called. They want their ________ back." It always makes me want to say, "The 1990's called. They want their cliche back."

Also ... "To be honest with you." (So, normally you lie to me? Got it).

Even worse is "To be perfectly honest with you ..."

The saying is meant to express that you want to have it (save it for later) but also eat it now. This implies you can't do both to which I've always thought why not get a bigger piece of cake?

"All do respect"

It usually is before someone says something without any respect.
