Worked for a bunch of hill billy septics and their favourite one was "it is what it is" ...... WTF!!!! It doesn't mean anything, you 3rd world bombing, English language destroying, fats food eating, neo nazi scum!!!!!!! ...... and breathe .......
I've been away from IT departments for a while. Now I'm back, and all the managers are saying "...and all those good things".
E.g. "Pete does C#, ASP.NET, WCF and all those good things".
"we need you to extract the data, cleanse it, match it against Binkie, and all those good things".
Who's responsible? I'm on the brink of saying it myself.
I used to work with a programme manager who loved "all those good things", it got trotted out every second or third sentence. I admit there were times I felt like nipping to the gate guards and borrowing a firearm.
In a similar vein, if the line ends in "fire", you can guarantee that "desire" and/or "take me higher" will also turn up shortly afterwards like unwanted relatives at a Party.
English poetry(and song writing) is driven by the lack of good rhymes in the language
