Any phrase that one person uses more than twice in any conversation. ie: ya think

A few old ones: that will go over like a pregnant pole vaulter, crooked as a bag of guts, and 24/7/365.

"built like a tank"

Or

"constructed so well that I believe it will hold up greatly under harsh conditions and should maintain structural integrity for years, no matter how much I punish it"

I'll stick with built like a tank ;)

However I don't like when someone begins half their sentences with "so". (I've been guilty of this once or twice)

EX: So this morning I was eating my breakfast and I see a burglar on my porch. So I grab my gun and open the door. So I point my gun at him and yell "freeze!". He sees me and stops in his tracks. So I yell into the house and tell my wife to call the cops..........

You know, a lot of people interviewed on, you know, TV are really poor speakers, you know?
 
I have been told and have observed---.
It has come to my attendtion----
Do you want to hear the good or bad first?
This wont hurt much---
Sit down!
Do you own a-----
Did you own a----
Hey, big guy-----
It will only take a minuet--
I will get back with you----
I been wanting to talk to you---
Can you help me move?
Can I borrow your truck?
Your results are back---
Whats that sixty minuets truck doing out front?
 
24-7 has to be near the top of the list. O-T-C and or any other anagram that assumes you already know what the other person is thinking / talking about.
I will put up with it for a few minutes ( or minuets ir you prefer )

"It's Rare"

That is the most overused word in the lexicon of anyone trying to sell anything. :mad:

To me, rare should only apply to 17th and 18th century firearms in 90% condition, or in conjunction with ordering a piece of meat.

How about vintage?

it's like, as in "it's like, you know, built like a tank and locks up like a bank vault. It's like a real tack driver, you know?
 
This is off thread, but what I really have a hard time with, even moreso than my spelling, is aberiviations. I can only understand about 10% of computer talk useing them. Flying is a big love of mine but everything to do with flying is ALL aberiviations! If I can figguer out the aberviations I can eaisly understand all knowledge on flying, but it really annoys me!
 
Somebody that says "hey, cuz". If I am not your cousin, I don't want to be referred to that way. As a matter of fact, if I AM your cousin, I don't want to be referred to that way either.
 
I thought Black Rifle, Assault Rifle, Hi Cap Mags, or clips would have come up by now. Also trigger as smooth as butter But, adding one more, what about the phrase when shopping for a used vehicle. " Owned by a woman driver ". When I met my wife she had her new car 4 years and never knew the oil had to be changed, much less filters or tune-up. I would never buy a car from one.
