Friday Follow! Whatdju Say?

Hey bloggies, its FRIDAY following, and I hope you click the link above and find many other blogs to love on like you all so kindly love on mine:) I look forward to finding new blogs and meeting new peeps too!:)

So today I'd like to talk about many phrases that people say during the course of my days/weeks that drive me BONKERS. Phrases that don't make sense or are filler phrases.. and I have no idea where these phrases come from but maybe you too can be amused and share some of yours!!!

A) Six in one,,, 1/2 dozen in the other- Um,,,,I guess the point is that there is no difference but really, is all that necessary. Is it important to make me think 'um six is half... well unless your a baker' while your in the middle of whatever conversation your trying to express.

B) Long story short- Hate hate HATE this phrase... is it a long story or is a short story? Do you think I want the edited version or the long version and if there is more to the story what are you NOT telling me? The thing that makes me TOTALLY bonkers is when someone throws this lil nugget into the convo roughly 50 times in between the important stuff.. As a filler its torture. TORTURE I tell you peeps!

C) I'm the Indian, not the Chief- Yeah this is as inappropriate as it sounds, I guess the concept is that this person cannot make any decisions because they hold minimal power, but when it comes to scheduling me an appointment,, I dont care who I need to speak with that will help me, if you can't help me transfer me to someone who can, don't use an inappropriate cultural slur to emphasize your point. Ugh

C)Not for nothing- WHAT? Double negatives make me totally bonkers.. sometimes in a way that is entertaining like 'dont use no double negatives'.. but in this case I'm so distracted by the nonsense that you just said I'm not really sure if we're saying we don't like something or we do like something?? I"m confused,, lets start again and maybe don't use this one !

D) Ya feel me? -Um no.. I do not feel or touch or anything on you. I'm pretty sure your trying to say 'do you understand me' or 'do you know what i mean?'... but all I'm hearing is touch touch touch and all I'm thinking is No NO NO.

And now to end with a phrase that I love and just randomly squeal through the day..


MILKA WHAT??!!!!
