Yours??

[turtlerescue1]

1. "I would if I were you."

[petronius]

7. I think that's actually the dumbest thing ever *listened* to

Uttering it convincingly can lead to epic hilarity...

[KamaAina]

2. "I voted for Bush."

"Again."

[LynneSin]

5. Let's make our nickname Teabaggers!!

I kid you not - they started it not us!

[Mendocino]

12. Is that

Wilford Brimley? Seriously, I remember that he traveled on John McCains campaign trail bus.

[pinboy3niner]

3. That's the way I roll"

[nolabear]

4. "Hold my beer and watch this."

An oldie but a goodie.

[LynneSin]

6. Well you know some douche is gonna mess with your beer if you have them hold it

Either they'll drink it or they'll spit in it and give it back to you

[pinboy3niner]

8. Yeah...like THAT'S the worst that's gonna happen

[LynneSin]

9. Or they could slip a roofie in it

[pinboy3niner]

10. Whoosh!

The guy who makes that declaration is never coming back to sip his beer. He inevitably ends up being taken away in an ambulance, often in a full-body cast. Roofies are the least of his worries.

[loli phabay]

20. rofl all i can see is the epic fail videos on youtube.

[HelenaHandbasket]

11. "It Is What It Is" and "That's Just The Way It Is"

I can think of a whole bunch of these LOL.

[nolabear]

13. Like, "No matter where you go, there you are"?

[HelenaHandbasket]

14. Sadly, I've Used All Of These Expressions....Still Do

How about these:

"She had herself a time".

"See you when I see you".

"Who woulda thought?" or "Who woulda think it?"

"How's it hanging?"

[Tom Ripley]

37. I honestly don't think that Marcus Aurelius would have had a problem with "it is what it is"

Don't feel bad; it may be overused, but that doesn't mean it isn't true

[HelenaHandbasket]

15. Tell Your People To Call My People

Grrrr...I hate that!

[Behind the Aegis]

16. "Too many obgyn's aren't able to practice their love with women across this country."

And his other winner....

"There's an old saying in Tennessee." (pause) (pause) "I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee that says, 'Fool me once, shame on ... shame on you. Fool me... You can't get fooled again!'"

He was a total dipshit.

[deutsey]

31. If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier...

just so long as I'm the dictator.

[HelenaHandbasket]

38. OMG Too Funny

Over here cracking up....he was such a doofus!

[pa28]

17. "Bring it on" wins. "Nobody could have predicted" is second. n/t

[Populist_Prole]

18. "I'm just sayin"

Lamest comeback...ever. Most commonly used by weasels when a previous statement/accusation made by them is soundly refuted or pointed out how offensive it is. Some just always get into a habit of letting their mouths write checks their brain can't cash.

[Ineeda]

30. Tho the Prez said "I'm just sayin" last night in NOLA

and it was quite funny.

[Chan790]

19. "It's always in the last place you look."

Really? No shit? I just once want someone to admit they found what they were looking for...and kept looking!!

Until then, the phrase "It's always in the last place you look." is an absurdity, a statement that simply needs no vocalization.

[loli phabay]

21. but it is factually correct.. so i give that one a pass

[LibDemAlways]

22. "Aren't you glad George W. Bush was at the helm on 9/11?" Real quote. n/t

[sarge43]

23. "What's the worst that can happen?"

Murphy's Law in action

[raccoon]

24. "The exception that proves the rule." That makes absolutely NO SENSE.

If you find an exception, seems to me that DISPROVES the rule.

[sarge43]

25. It's "proofs the rule", ie tests it. n/t

[Pool Hall Ace]

28. For real? Because I always thought

the saying is, "There is an exception to every rule." Therefore, when you see the exception, that proves the rule that there is an exception to every rule.

Wait . . . what?

[raccoon]

32. But most people think it proves the rule. Tell them it ain't so. nt

[sarge43]

33. The majority isn't always correct.

The original expression was "the exception is the proof (test) of the rule." Because both the definition and the pronunciation of the two words are similar, it's easy to mix up.

[Iggo]

26. "Professor! I did it different and got a different answer!"

One of my classmates in some math class back in the day. The professor's reply was along the lines of "No. You did it wrong and got the wrong answer."

[Scuba]

27. LOL Reminds me of the time my wife had two maps spread out in front of her.....

"These maps are both different" she proclaimed.

[Doc_Technical]

29. "If you don't know, I'm not going to tell you."

Does this mean that you are incapable of giving me
a rational explanation of your opinion backed up
with facts and figures?

[Proud Liberal Dem]

34. "This is/was God's plan"

frequently (almost reflexively) used by religious people to comfort anybody who had something bad (usually awful) happen to them.

[Initech]

35. "If it wasn't for my.horse I wouldn't have spent that year in college."

[Scuba]

36. Lewis Black, pretty funny.

It was Lewis, wasn't it?

[HelenaHandbasket]

39. Great Comic!

I saw him live in concert a few months ago....great show.

[lastlib]

40. "Same difference"....

logically it means they are comparing two pairs of items, and the differences between the pairs compared are identical. But they don't use it that way.....

D'uhhhhhh....

I cringe when I hear that one.

[vanlassie]

41. "It'll feel better when it stops hurting."
