Author Topic: phrases that wind you up  (Read 33224 times)
red socks

« on: Thursday, August 5, 2010, 18:04:11 »

I was in a meeting today where the phrase "if I was playing devil's advocate" came up about 10 times - I had to stop myself from saying "do you mean if you were being a cunt?"

Am i right to get wound up by this - or do I just need a holiday?

One swallow does not make a summer (or something along those lines)

That was overused on here way too much after that disaster of a manager came out with it.
