look, do you want to take the red pill and google this for yourself, or take the blue pill and remain blissfully in the dark?

-let's table this for now

lol for a sec I thought you meant our red pill/blue pill discussion
― james franco tur(oll)ing test (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 19:34 (twelve years ago)
i didn't want to google for it sorryi think i'll choose to take no pills and remain in the dark with this conversation tabled for now
which reminds me -- i have seen a swift uptick in the usage of the word "conversation" to mean "hashing out a particularly vexing issue" -- "join the conversation" or "start a conversation"
― we slowly invented brains (La Lechera), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 19:36 (twelve years ago)
i don't hate it necessarily i just wanted to have the conversation

__________ No Longer a Hidden Jewel
I should have my hands cut off for the number of times I've written that headline. These places are nothing like jewels and why would they be hidden in the first place?

You're welcome.
Like that.
Ha, I actually like that one. The aggressive preemptive "You're welcome."
― jmm, Thursday, 27 February 2014 14:34 (twelve years ago)
Not that I would use it myself.
― jmm, Thursday, 27 February 2014 14:38 (twelve years ago)
that particular use of "you're welcome" has ruined (for me) the usual usage of it so that i can't imagine anyone using it without a shade of irony or annoyance. it's bad.

Yeah I always associate it with that GWB thing, whose title is such an brilliantly compact piece of verbal comedy that I give the phrase a pass forever
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Thursday, 27 February 2014 15:24 (twelve years ago)
I only use the phrase "you're welcome" when I am trying to literally make a person feel welcome
― my collages, let me show you them (bernard snowy), Thursday, 27 February 2014 17:23 (twelve years ago)
in my mind, the phrase comes tagged with an implied "[here]"

the blogiverse just proliferates these awful colloquialish phrases at a disturbing rate

Most bloggers have no gift for phrase making, so they use ready made.

a hands-on experience in state-of-the-art classrooms
― pplains, Thursday, 27 February 2014 22:13 (twelve years ago)
What the hell is state-of-the-art anymore? They have computers? How does the "the art" come into play. "See this calculator? It is state-of-the-art technology."
And hands-on. I would hazard a guess that pretty much 75-percent of life is "hands-on."
I'm not trying to be http://media.screened.com/uploads/0/2641/716435-jerryseinfeldcharportrait_tiny.png here, but I see those phrases so much.
