Uh huh.

PS, Ryft, I personally think your avatar is pretty hot - eyeliner and all. I'll hold off on refuting whether or not anything under the heading of "that's what she said" has ever been truly said...there are young ears around.

"Your momma"

First of all, it is not a full sentence, secondly, she has nothing to do with our differences.

"I was giving you the benefit of the doubt."

Such a universally common expression that it has become accepted, but it still grates painfully across this Grammar Nazi's nerves like nails down a chalkboard. I want to stab myself in the ears when I hear it spoken (or stab myself in the eyes when I see it written). Properly speaking, it is horribly wrong to have a definite article there; it ought to be, "I was giving you the benefit of doubt."
Man is a rational animal who always loses his temper when
called upon to act in accordance with the dictates of reason.

"I gave 110%" that grates.

Then there are expressions that just dont make any sense, like.

"there was more of them than I could shake a stick at" whats with waving a stick at large groups of things, I just dont get it.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

"Whatever"

Thants a pop in the back of my kids head.

"Go fuck yourself"
Why would such a pleasurable thing ever be used with such a negative connotation. I just say.. "I sure would, but my wife prefers to fuck me... now back to what I was saying."
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

to fuck =/= to insert into an orifice on the fuckee

That's just male bias

And yes she rides it well when she does the work.

I'd put on a pith helmet for that.

Anything else?

Or just the pith helmet?
