The key word there is 'if'. If only we'd all keep those all important 'ifs' in mind, and not just say them; we'd temper our tendencies to rush forward along presumptive lings of thought. Thank you for clarifying, my darling.

If it weren't for bad luck, you'd have no luck at all. Misery loves company, and all is fair in love and war. I think its time to give them a taste of their own medicine; and quickly, because time is money; and therefore time is the root of all evil. (this message intentionally nonsensical) What exactly, if anything, are you trying to prove, other than you apparently cannot comprehend...anything? *obligatory, but disdainful, wink* |

...but you can't really sustain accusatory blame ("you're the common denominator"!) with the obligatory stigma if it's spread around to all involved. Oh, I hate accusatory blame. It's so much worse than non-accusatory blame, because, with the redundancy, comes a tidal wave of extra blame. Bad stuff. Anyway, in every day conversation, clichés are not only standard, but innate--so innate that they are, even for the above average speaker or someone bent on avoiding them, in any practical sense, inextricable. Idioms are so ingrained into English speech that it would be impossible to sustain conversation without them. I'm sure, even in your post, there is a gamut of different clichés and ubiquitous phrasing. Most likely, even in this response (in fact, "most likely" is an idiomatic phrase--as is "in fact"). Writing is different, naturally--good writing should avoid cliché, of course. But most people are not good, or even average, writers. Most people verge on illiteracy. Although, I suppose I should be polite and agree that that particular phrase in indeed quite useless. But again, that is what an idiom is: It is a phrase that, if examined literally, becomes nonsensical. 3. "I like to see the glass as half full." It doesn't make any difference. If it's half full, it's also half empty; this is simple math. Whether you choose to put a positive spin on the imagery, it doesn't change the amount of fluid in the container. Also, it's one of those phrases that shows up in profiles almost as often as "I'm laid back and easy going," which is about as informative as the UPC code on the Shredded Wheat box. So, you're a realist. I personally would rather see the glass as half-filled with coffee, but then who drinks coffee from a glass? That's just not right. It totally does make a difference, in this case: One can see the physical emptiness, the void, in the glass or one can see the physical liquid--both of which are evident. Perspective can change everything, because our interaction with physical reality comes chiefly through how we interpret our perception, no? We can control, within limits, how we interpret what we perceive. We can often control certain aspects of physical reality: We can drink from the glass. We can fill it. We can break it. But we might not do anything but decide "my opinion cannot change anything" if we do not pursue one more decisive, more provocative motivation or another (positivity, negativity, etc.). There are more. Lots more. They don't help, they don't provide anything in the way of relevant information or communication enhancement. They need to be retired. Again, that will never, ever happen; the English language is so riddled with idioms that no amount of effort could extract them completely. Just sayin'.

Hey, hey, hey!!
Hey! What are your thoughts about this highly elusive and controversial subjecto? Sometimes, behaviors are wort' a second look; sometimes, you gotta write down some observations about the stuffs peoples does, and look 'em over. Study 'em, if you will. Behaviorology: The study of human behavior. THOUGHTS? QUESTIONS? OBJECT-I-ONS? What do you think, my puppets? http://www.behaviorology.org/ |

Wait. Did the raccoon ask us to piddle on her head? Oh Well. If she insists . . . Nah. I can't do it. I pity the delusional little raccoon. Besides, who would want to wear a coonskin cap that smells like urine? HEY, your psychosis is showing. Coonskin caps are not just for old folks.  Notice that the young woman wearing the coonskin cap is wearing a shirt with the name "Wisconsin" on it. So, ZPicante had better watch her back. By the way, if our resident raccoon were the coonskin cap in the above photo, then would we have a case of girl-on-girl? I was not referring to the coonskin cap, obviously, for that is a timeless thing; I was referring to your apparent miscomprehension of the "asterisk action," which is an internet meme of sorts, which my generation is apparently more wont to recognize--and use. ... My beauty! My everlasting beauty!! <:( |

I always tired.  But you are not a delusional pipsqueak raccoon. That's a plus. There's always a bright side.  |
