S/O sayings that help, which drive you nuts?!

Guuuuuurrrrrlllllll!!!! (Girl drawn out for five minutes). All my coworkers do this all day and it drives me nuts.

Not a saying but... it's just happened and it drives me nuts! Women calling other women 'Lovely' as a name. "Ok lovely, how would you like to pay?" "Hello lovely!" "Thanks Lovely, see you soon" 

Low hanging fruit
It is what it is
YOLO

Welcome in— said at every non big/box store and the library by every employee.It is either new, or I only noticed/heard it post-Covid.

Most corporate speak just makes me cringe. I hate it all.
And I hate "not my circus, not my monkeys" in particular.
I always hated those "live laugh love" signs

But I can't understand why anyone balks at "no problem". I think it's just as polite as "you're welcome". My dad gets on about that and I don't get it.

I don't care about "my pleasure", I think it's weird and associate it only with Chik Fil A but it's not rude.

There is a home stager in my town who posted on their Instagram that they charge extra for "Live, love, laugh" remediation. 😂

This is straight up toxic. That's how they brush off inappropriate behavior, especially toward women.
I was president of a group with a lot of moving parts--committees, events, building maintenance, etc. and I still get asked a lot of questions and I offer a lot of opinions about things that I know are not up to me. I use part of the phrase, "Not my circus anymore." The circus part is accurate.

Mine are:
"In it to win it!"
"Teamwork makes the dream work!"

My guilty pleasure show is Below Deck and one of the captains says these ALL. THE. TIME.
(Having admitted that I watch reality TV, I must move and change my name, or at least my profile.)

Well, it means you can't both keep it AND eat it. You have to do one or the other, you can't have it both ways.

Thoughts and prayers

Multiple edits as I try to repair the quote.

My parents, especially my mother, railed against Boys Will Be Boys attitude when I was a kid in the 1960s. It astounds me how many think it’s worth saying now.

My current annoyance is “everyone is entitled to their opinion”. Of course they are!
I doubt you when you use it while continuing to try to change my mind. I have a friend who’s in her second week of bringing up a subject and trying to convince me to change my mind. I’ve moved through, “I understand how you feel that way, even if I feel different”
To “let’s agree to disagree”, and am now avoiding social situations with her.
The only entitled opinion is hers

"We have never done it that way." Older members saying this to younger members has caused an organization that I belong to lose many young members.

I mentioned this in the other thread, but the one that drives me batty is "It must be nice!"

Now, I don't mean when someone says that sincerely. You know, you just spent a week with your kids & grandkids on vacation, and someone, realizing how lovely a time you've had, says to you "It must be nice to get to spend time with them like that." or something along those lines. When they are truly pleased for you.

I mean when you tell someone you've received a promotion and they give you this attitude laced "Must be nice!", either on its own or followed by a complaint about their own work.

Or, when you tell someone that you just finished some project you've been working on for ages, and they say "Oh, must be nice", as if you just snapped your fingers and it was done for you as opposed to you pouring immense effort into it for some time.

Or, if you live in a country with longer maternity leave, and you're discussing the things you do with your baby during the day, and they roll their eyes and snipe at you "Must be nice!", like you personally are to blame that they aren't offered the same benefit in their own country.

Any of those snippy little ways in which people use that phrase. Because in most cases it's not like that one good thing exists in a vacuum. There are countless other aspects of life tied up in how that one thing came to be. And you may have worked long and hard for whatever it was, or waited a long time for it, or put up with some other not-so-nice things in exchange for it, etc.

My go to response for that phrase, when used in a snarky way, is just "Yes, it is." Because if they're going to snark at me over something nice in my life, then I'm not going to bother to waste my breath explaining all that went into it happening/existing/etc.

I know what it means, I just don't like it. It seems a poor choice of an item to want both ways.  Why would I want to keep a cake?  It's made to eat and it would go bad if you just tried to keep it. 

I think that the response - no problem, is flippant and negative. I mean, you’re starting off by saying - no. And the word problem is a negative word, to me. I see that a lot of people don’t have an issue with it, and I’m actually kind of surprised. I just think that there are a variety of answers you can give to someone when they ask you for a specific thing. Especially since you are essentially saying yes.

In your situation, you are certainly allowed to find whatever peace with the situation you can make. Whatever helps! And you are dealing with more than any one person should have to. But on the broader context, I still hate
The phrase. It encourages acceptance of the status quo. The general we should keep fighting to make things better and change them to what they SHOULD be instead of what they are. But I want to be clear that no specific individual is, in my opinion, tasked with that struggle and if you find comfort in the phrase, I understand and respect that.

Lately I’m hearing the word colorway quite often, as in “This dress is an available in several colorways?” Ugh and WTF? 🙄
