This isn't new, but when people say they are going "wash it down with [insert drink]" when discussing what they're eating/drinking, I see red.

It reminds me of someone my My 600lb Life guzzling a 2-liter with their Tater Tot Surprise. You aren't washing down your bites of dinner with that cabernet.. and if you are, you need to see a doctor.

"It's been a minute" is stupid. It's not clever and it's not funny. It's just stupid and apparently a new copycat saying like "I know. Right?" which is also silly.

I call them "fad sayings".

Pretty new phrase: “Touch some grass”

It’s a passive aggressive way of telling people they’re ignorant and need to get in touch with reality. Seems to be used mostly in regards to political and social issues

I was watching one of those the other night and some 3/4-ton chick said that she wasn't exercising because she "didn't have the equipment." For some reason that just cracked me up. Still does. I guess it's just such brazen bullshite that it amuses me that an actual person said it.

I mean, WTF equipment are we talking about? You'd sweat off 5 pounds trying to military press a broom.

Yep, like "spike the football" started popping up in political context.

There's one lady from an old episode who is addicted to "cheesy potatoes". It is all she has eaten since she was 4, and it is all she eats. During the scene where they do the intervention and she's at wit's end over this obsession.. a truck pulls up to her driveway and dumps a year's worth of cheese and potatoes out onto the street to demonstrate how serious the addiction has become.



I want to say they even make her pour a bucket of cheese onto the potatoes in the street for effect. Not sure how that cures her addiction, but it made for interesting TV.

Drives me crazy when every ahole on TV news (if you want to call it that) starts their response to a question with "Look..."

I hate the overuse of the word ‘frick’ including AF (as frick)

At a kids’ basketball game some idiot:

‘Look at my fricking kid, he’s fricking awesome!’

‘Good fricking shot, Braxton, frick yeah’

Then the nearest 2 year old repeats it.

Learn some vocabulary
