"YOLO" aka "you only live once"
...obviously, but why would I use that to justify doing stupid and/or unsafe things? If I'm only living once I darned well better enjoy and protect what I've got.
Ahh, the youngsters' version of carpe diem.
I dead leg my kid brother every time I hear him use 'YOLO'....0 -
I hate when strangers walk past me and say "cheer up, it may never happen" .. what may never happen?!..
You don't know my life so why even make any comment. I usually just respond with "it already has"0 -
Another youngsters one - when everything is prefixed with "like"
"and then he was like dead, seriously"
Well, was he dead or was he like dead but something less serious!

"If you think about it, it's true."
So if you don't think about it, it's not true? I didn't know true and false were that wishy washy.0 -
Zombies don't YOLO.0

I am pretty sure the cake one originated in England but was actually said correctly: "You can't eat your cake and have it too."
We got it all mixed up in the USA.
Really? Heh! I've always known it as 'you can't have your cake and eat it' and I am British!
I'm British and I say "you can't eat your cake and have it too". I've never heard "you can't have your cake and eat it" lol0 -

I want to murder anyone who uses the phrase "way, shape, or form." There are few things that have multiple ways, shapes, and forms; depending on what you're talking about, you should be able to figure out what applies! My boyfriend was a horrible offender on this one until my screaming became too irritating, but now I have to work on what he's replaced it with: "and other what-nots."0

When people misuse "literally." The numbers were NOT literally jumping off the page at you. The pounds are not literally falling off your body.0

My Dad uses 'at the end of the day' and then continues on to make a point which has nothing to do with the day's end.
