[br]...the talk radio staple "slippery slope", and all it's variants: "it's a slippery slope", "we're heading down a slippery slope", etc.

I don't think there's a day that goes by that I don't hear this phrase used.

If I were another type of buffoon I might reply by typing "WORD" just like that, in all caps. Anyway....."what're you gonna do?"

Every Political commentator or pundit uses the phrase "the Fact of the matter is..." when that's really code for "the truth as I see it is..." or "the truth according to the group that pays me is..."

Watch some of these shows on CNN, MSNBC or FauxNews and it takes about 30 seconds for the phrase to come out of the pundits mouth.

"It's all good." No, it's not. If it were, you wouldn't be insisting that it is!

And "thrown under the bus." That is one is particularly popular on reality t.v. shows. Don't ask me how I know this.

"Don't ask." I hear this way the fuck too much than I care to. And it's always about something I wouldn't ask about anyway. And no, I wasn't referring to you BMG. You're cool with MM.
