Pointless sayings

List out all those that annoy or amuse you...

Some that really get to me are:

"It'll be the last place you look" (When discussing lost things) Oh really? No, you don't say?

or

"It's been a game of two halves" (When discussing football) Sherlock, every game has 2 halves (in normal time) unless the game is called off.

or

"You'll know when you get there" (When discussing directions to a place) Of course I'll know, you know why? Because I will be there.

    Cheap at half the price.

    (Except when you know that cheap also meant goods or property. So it's really the medieval equivalent of "everything 50% off".)

    "A stitch in time saves nine" - you wot mate?!

    I hate "it is what it is". About as pointless as it gets. Its like saying something for the sake of saying something.

    If we're going for CL cliches, then "weird, oh, I mean unique" and "supporters, sorry I mean customers" are so bloody irritating. Like the poster is the first to come up with that pot of sarcastic comedy gold.

    Got no problem with a game of two halves though. We know what it means, right?

    Also, "last place you look" I thought was a joke. Unless they mean "last place they could possibly be" which is surely valid.

    "last place you look" is as useless as "they let themselves down on the final ball", it's only us that can lose it before our final ball....

    "no knee jerk reaction"
    when a problem replicates itself again and again.

    "Life sentence"
    Insult to every decent person when after less than X years they are breathing natures air.

    Iraq, Syria,Iran,Luton etc.
    A Pointless untruth from the lie Meister Blair.

    "War on terror"

    Pointless statement, because you can't beat an enemy that lives in the shadows and where one person with a bomb or Machine gun can reek havoc on a whole city or nation.

    Exactly, why the hell wouldn't I eat my cake?

    It's my flipping cake, just try and stop me.
    Don't know if this is a joke, but that's not what it means. It means you can't eat your cake and then still have it there in front of you. Eg. You can't have it both ways.
