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

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.

All right, kind of hate to say it, but it's time to stop telling ugly guys married to pretty women that they've "outkicked their coverage."
Phrase had a good run and - needless to say - scored a lot of points, but no, it's over.
