    "Love you to the moon and back". I'm not sure why it bugs me so much.

    It's the Italian way. I grew up watching how sausages were made. I even helped. So no mystery for me lol.

    When people preach and they end whatever they are preaching with the word "sis" 🙄

    How about the ""Shut up!!!!!" Whenever anyone says whatever about what have you. And although much less heard, "awesomesauce" stirs up bad thoughts.

    A lot of things people say about having kids, like:

    "it's different when they're your own"
    "you'll understand when you have your own" (I'm 42 now and decided at about 13 not to have any, but thanks)
    "You can't possibly know love until you have a child" (eye roll for days)
    "I didn't truly love my husband until our child was born" (that's sad! WTF)
    "EVERYTHING I do in life, I do it for my child" (really, you go to work, pay taxes, care for your health because of your child ONLY - you would just rot in a gutter if you weren't a parent? Interesting flex)
    I have also met people who seem totally normal but say "I'd be dead if it weren't for my child(ren)" with total seriousness and I find that SO alarming!!

    I also hate a lot of things I consider health woo or diet lingo. I will probably be "wooed" for this if not for the above, which is fine. But even if some of it has truth to it, I just don't want to hear it honestly...

    - anything about gut health (mainly because it's usually from someone who read 1 article about gut health and is now an expert)
    - mentions of essential oils to treat actual diseases
    - diets targeting specific body parts
    - "it's so simple - just eat when you're hungry" (thanks but not everyone has good hunger/satiety cues, that plan got me to 300 lb in the past)
    - ANY product sold through an MLM
    - fat loss and toning done with special products like pills, bars, or shakes and not as part of a larger program with actual diet & workouts
    - "it doesn't matter what you eat as long as you're eating clean"
    - "diet soda will make you gain weight"

    I agree with literally, not to be confused with figuratively, every single thing (except 42/13).

    I slept like a baby. Babies don't sleep through the night.

    It's gonna be Déjà vu all over again.

    We'll cross that bridge when we get there. We'll just burn that bridge when we get to it.

    The exception proves the rule.

    Easier said than done.

    At least two of these are intentional humorous modifications of the original adage.

    "Where did you last leave it?" - asked when looking for something misplaced. Well if I knew where I actually last left it, I would have found it.

    This one is always interesting to me...."New and Improved!!" - Well, if it's new, it's not improved, and if it's improved, it's not new.

    That's right up there with the people who ask "What are you looking for?" when I'm rooting around in my purse. Because you somehow know the layout better than I do?
