''what doesn't kill you, make you stronger'' it's just so overused and saturated

Oh sweet summer child

Yeah we get it, we've all seen Game of Thrones, too. If you have to be a condescending dick, at least be original.

I use that sometimes on my kids. But I've never seen GoT. That phrase WAY predates that show.

Here's a quote used by media shills to defend crappy movies all the time: "[formerly great franchise] is now shitty. And why that's a GOOD THING."

"The customer is always right" conveniently missing the second part: "...in matters of taste and style".

Also misinterpreting "customer" as an individual rather than as the aggregate of customer demand.

"God is testing you." "God has a plan." "God never closes a door without opening a window." "I'll pray for you."

Or any other religious bullshit. Keep that shit to yourself. I'm living in the real world.
