Hackneyed Expressions

How would Miss OP re-write that sentence without hackneyed expressions?

That's eady. Slut Ione Sky Breaks Her Silence About Her Relationship

Currently I dislike very much the following expressions:

everything is "amazing" - really? are you that dim

having "teachable moment" - what? you learned something

let's "connect" - call me / text me

I'm "triggered" - I need a backbone and a dose of reality.

People seem to “call each other out” a lot these days. In the past if I’d read that, I’d have imagined that Movie Star A had invited Movie Star B to go out back to the alley where they could settle a thing like men, but what it seems to mean now is that somebody has become offended or has had their feathers ruffled somehow and that their publicist has leapt into action to let the world know.

Reach out Reach out Reach out Reach out Reach out Reach out

[quote]Reach out

For some reason beloved by ChatGPT

Reach out and touch someone.

You can't reach out with a phone and touch someone, idiotic copywriter!

Dumb AT&T for approving the spot instead of firing their agency.

Meghan Markle claps back at haters.

This topic is hackneyed.

Tell me you’re (anything) without telling me you’re (anything) Makes me want to shoot someone in the face.

"No Problem"

"So good you'll slap yo mama!"

A few years ago, every article about life hacks or movie trivia would reveal something “mind blowing”.

How about this? You're in line to pay at some place, and you hear them yelling "Following". Not 'followed' (see what I did there?) by "guest", "customer", or even "shoe lover'. Just "FOLLOWING!" WTF? I fucking HATE THAT.

R8 missed the lecture in 8th grade on metaphor and simile.

No, r16, you did not perceive the lazy copywriter stole the idea from an old Diana Ross song. Derivitive at best.

Were I the brand manager for AT&T longlines business segment, I would have shut that concept down with a “what else do you have to pitch today?”

Yes—if you were there. You weren’t, for what was a successful ad campaign.

To steal from a song: Hit the road, Jack.

“Doubling down on…”

“To be clear…”

“Gaslighted by…”

“Tell me you’re [fill in with rant-du-jour] without telling me you’re [ibid].”

I cannot stand when people describe any random thing, especially a food item as a "bad boy". ""Yeah, serve up these bad boys and the crowd will go nuts!" And the "bad boys" in question are....chili dogs!

Drives me bonkers!

“Holding space”

“Give her her flowers”

“Bonkers”

Mama OP , sounds like you need to touch some grass or have a little snack. Why are you so pressed that the girls are girling? These writers are just leaning into the chaos and getting their life.

Also “breaking one’s silence” is a pretty trite figure of speech too.

*checks notes*

“What the fuck”

OP, we need to have a conversation about hackneyed expressions.

Every pregnant woman is "showing off her baby bump" just by being out in public.

Mafuckin!’ I wuz razed rite.

It's giving...

It's giving hackneyed.

"Happy camper"!

Stop, please.
