tonorator Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 everybody at work is always saying "at the end of the day ..." which i didn't mind at first, but now it gets under my skin. they use it to set up their main point, such as "hey people, at the end of the day, we are all about profit" or some gem like that. makes them seem like big thinkers. usually, as soon as i hear "at the end of the day" i know some bland platitude is about to follow ...

montster Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 "going forward." i used to have to listen to companies' quarterly earnings conference calls, and each person on the calls must have said this 20 times. i think it has seeped into other usage, too. "our outlook going forward ..." a friend and i were walking down the street when we heard some tool on his cell phone say, "ok, blow me up on my cell."

that was cold-blooded that'll be the day that's a load off my mind that's a new wrinkle in my horn. that's a real stem-winder that's a whole new can of worms that's a wrap that's about the size of it that's all folks that's easy for you to say that's enough to piss off the Pope that's icing on the cake that's it in a nutshell that's just like the pot calling the kettle black. that's just the tip of the iceberg that's like a turtle on a fence post that's like closing the barn door after the horse escapes that's neither here nor there that's old hat that's par for the course that's pretty run-of-the-mill that's rubber on the side of the road that's skull duggery that's some ole good that's the $64,000 question that's the long and short of it that's the way lady luck dances that's the way the ball bounces that's the way the cookie crumbles that's the whole ball of wax that's water under the bridge the acorn doesn't fall far from the tree the apple doesn't fall far from the tree the ball is in your court the belle of the ball the best thing since little apples the big picture the bigger they are the harder they fall the blind leading the blind the blind leading the dumb/naked the bottom line. the buck stops here the butler did it the cat's meow the cat's pajamas the cat's whiskers (English version of 'the cat's meow') the cream of the crop the devil is always ready to rock the cradle of the saint who sleeps the devil is in the details The devil made me do it the devil must be beating his wife the die is cast the dog ate my homework the drowning death the early bird gets the worm THE EARTH MOVED the emperor wears no clothes the end justifies the means the everyman the exception that proves the rule the eyes are the mirrors (windows) of (to) the soul the fatal shooting death the fickle finger of fate THE FINAL ANALYSIS the full monty the girl next door The glass of the mirror simply melted away!

wildcat2334 Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 everybody at work is always saying "at the end of the day ..." which i didn't mind at first, but now it gets under my skin. they use it to set up their main point, such as "hey people, at the end of the day, we are all about profit" or some gem like that. makes them seem like big thinkers. usually, as soon as i hear "at the end of the day" i know some bland platitude is about to follow ... totally, I can proudly say I have NEVER uttered the phrase- close though "Moving Forwad" jesus- can it be used in any more places it doesn't even make sense? Rockin- "You gonna rock the Yankee hat?" Hit it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 "At the end of the day" is a great example that I hear overused in a corporate setting. "No worries" is a saying that a co-worker of mine uses much much too often. "Get ir done!" never struck me as being funny. "+1" is pretty ghey.
