An irrelevant study reveals what annoying TV phrases your toolbox coworkers are most likely to quote at you. And while you're getting a reprieve on Soprano-terms like "fahgeddaboutit", there's not much time to celebrate when they're being replaced by the ubiquitous Trump-ism "you're fired" (insert hand gesture here) or the Janet Jackson coined "wardrobe malfunction."
This reminds me of when I used to work at Gap Kids. We'd get a new store cassette every month, and every month we'd look forward to the change over like Christmas. "Finally, an escape from June's boy bands and Vitamin C!", we'd cheer. And then we'd pop in July's tape only to find it sucked worse, after only one listen. So we'd soldier on through June for another four weeks, with the faint hope that August would provide us some relief. Which (unsurprisingly) it didn't.
Back to the topic at hand...if you find yourself consistently using a word or phrase that you can picture on a novelty t-shirt worn by a sixth grader, then please, take a second and find a suitable synonym. Spare those around you the daunting task of awarding your "clever" use of a buzz(less) phrase with forced titters of appreciation. I have a sneaking suspicion that we finally will "all just get along" the day no one ironically asks us to.
