When someone says "get a room".
Whether the response is a yes or no this statement is no fun and unoriginal (May 28, 2016 at 11:48 am)Alasdair Ham Wrote: When someone days "get a room". go back to your terrarium The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

It was probably cute and hilarious in a sassy way when the very first person said it. Now it's just old and overused. I feel similar ways about LGBT people using "Who you are" "who I am" etc etc as an argument. It's just so fucking overused to the degree where the phrase has lost all meaning to me.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie RE: The Pet Peeves Thread

Not familiar with the "who you are", "who I am"
The unoriginal aspect just makes it extra peevish to me. Even the first time someone said it ever it's hardly witty or hilarious. Two people act like they need to get a room. "get a room." Wow that was so hilarious I fear my nipples might fly off from the pure hilarity of it. Hehe, I find it more lame than cute. The people who need to get a room are often cute, and if they're ever overly sentimental or corny, however corny they are I think it's far less corny than the "get a room" thing is lame. My answer would always be "Will do asap!" Or "spoilsport " I think the "spoilsport " reaction is funnier than the "get a room" thing, and that's not exactly hilarious either. I just have never understood it I guess.
I don't quite understand why it being unoriginal makes it not funny.
There are many things repetitive and still funny, cute, charming.

I am peeved by those who tell me to get a room with someone who is across the world from me and fail to provide the means of transportation.

Unoriginal doesn't make it unfunny. It's unfunny anyway. Unoriginal adds to it.
Yeah many repetitive and unoriginal things are genuinely funny, for example I never ever tire of "that's what she said" but when something lacks humor altogether anyway and in fact takes the fun OUT of things, hearing it for the 80 millionth time is just annoying. I am not trying to convince anyone, I am just saying it is definitely one of my pet peeves and always has been. I would never say it to anyone else it makes me cringe. Whereas corniness does not. Just trying to explain why it peeves me like with my other peeves, but this one is meeting some resistence as not everyone finds this one annoying hehe. I certainly do I tire of hearing that useless unfunny bullshit (to me personally) lol. I always feel like it is one of those truly useless things people say just because other people say it. I don't get the joke, it's just stating the obvious. |
