doin steaks tonight" or we are "doin grilled pork chops for the kids"... In reality your not "doin" anything with the food. You are either cooking, marinating or eating. Who came up with the "we are doin" phrase and why is it soo commonly used?

Yeah, it is a pet peeve of mine. Real men don't use the phrase. Real men use phrases like, "I'm gonna throw some steaks on the grill and sip on a few budweisers."

Who are you to say what real men say? I'm a real man, and I'm doin' some steaks on the grill tonight!
It's short and it gets the point across. Seriously, you need to get over it and find another peeve about something that actually matters.

If a peeve is something that annoys a person, why would one have one as a pet?
It doesn't matter what you say, it only matters how the meat tastes.

Isn't that the point of a pet peeve? It is something that doesn't matter. Why are you worked up over someone else's meaningles pet peeve?
We're doin' steaks is like "we're pregnant." Uh, no both of you are not! But to each his own.

Or "he's half a fig."
Actually it only gets to me when it is "we're doing steaks TO PERFECTION tonight."
Real men say "my wife just got finished cutting the grass and after she washes her hands she is going to grill my steak for me while I drink single malt scotch and flip through the football games with my remote while sitting my arse in my big leather chair with my feet propped up and when she flips the steak will pour me another three fingers of scotch while setting a napkin, knife and fork next to me in anticipation of handing me a warm plate with a hot steak while refilling the glass a third time then returning minutes later to remove above-mentioned plate, empty while handing me a fourth glass of scotch and a toothpick and giggling at the loud reverberations than just came from the seat of my leather chair."
Anyway, that's just what we doe.

Why do we say we're "taking a shower"? We're not taking anything.
They're just sayings man. You're wasting your time if you're worrying about shite like this. I think about these sayings every now and then... for about 3 seconds. Then I move on.

I release my excess waste wherever seems acceptable at the time.

It was just a general statement. In response to but not directed to you.
Thanks for the answer though.

Where do you keep the waste that is not excess?
