I'm going to have to take a rain check.

[gilbertharding]

Did it used to be 'pwned'? Or was that something else?

[Dr Rock]

That's something else. 'Own it' means 'take responsibility for it' and why not. I think all these new phrases are the bees knees.

[thenoise]

Since my original post I have purchased copyright on the phrase, so I do now officially own it and anyone else saying it has to pay me. Just looking forward to the cash coming in, not least from people on this board.

Don't see an issue with most of these phrases, it is what it is.

Pwnd it!

Yeah, but I've punk'd you.  You punk.

Sure this has been mentioned a thousand times before but for me the worst phrase in history is "it is what it is". At best it's simply redundant, and at worst it attempts to explain away bad behaviour without actually bothering to do the grunt work of providing an explanation. The verbal equivalent of a dismissive hand wave.

That's not really what it means though. To quote an online dictionary: "It is an expression used to characterize a frustrating or challenging situation that a person believes cannot be changed and must just be accepted."

"Hey, Utter Shit, how do you feel about people over-using idioms?"

"It is what it is."

"And the rest."

You do you. I do me. We all do each other and then we go home.

I have a mate that gets irrationally angry about things, one day he professed to me his hatred of 'stock phrases' when I came out with some cliche as I am wont to do, might even have been "it is what it is" but was probably something older and more parochial than that.

As a consequence of this I regularly communicate to him in cliche, stock phrases, continually telling him that a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush and that a rolling stone gathers no moss, much to his chagrin.

[pigamus]

It's one of them isn't it at the end of the day

[Captain Z]

I've seen 'MOT' being used several times to indictate general agreement, and still no idea what it stands for. 'Man/message of truth'? Obviously, it is impossible to search.

[moondogs]

I use it all the time.. not!

One of my bugbears, the old "gift" as verb.

Beware of gifting Greeks.

Be gifted by a horse's mouth without looking at it.

I still say 'owned'. As in 'Wolves got owned by Man City'.

You're saying you "still" say it as if it's not brand new, along with its accompanying typo "pwned".

Absolute shit for newborn cunts.
