"can't we all just get along". [/ QUOTE ] why does everyone say "can't we all just get along?" when Rodney King never used the word 'just'??? I've always wondered about that (yeah, I'm not normal)... |

"Business is business."
I've never heard this line used by anyone other than someone who just did something totally assholish 3 seconds prior to saying it. |

[/ QUOTE ] Just ask them their name and company name and have them spell it, because you are on the National Do Not call list, and they get polite and hang up real fast. I was pissed at my wife when she put us on this list because, the way I look at it, the telemarketers had to pay for a list of active phone numbers in the past, now the government is giving them one for free. And you know some people on this list put themselves on there because they got sucked into buying something before. I'm not real sure how I feel about the list. All I know is we don't get called any less, and I think the list helps out the telemarketers. |

Re: The stupidest, most trite, and overused quote of all time
I can't take it. Everytime I here someone use the line from Platoon that Oliver Stone used to describe combat duty, "long periods of boredom punctuated by surreal...", and apply it to whatever they're doing. Like mountain biking or something. Drives me nuts.

"it's not rocket science"
I was thinking about this the other day - rocket science is far from as cutting-edge as it was when this quote first became popular; it's actually pretty simple, standard technology nowadays (no offense patrick! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]). We should evolve this saying to "it's not nanotechnology" or something to that effect. |
