Daft Expressions That People Come Out With...


Here's one that I admire...

Someone does you a favour... and when you say thanks, they say:

"It was the least I could do"

Now that shows a pretty active person to me... because the 'least' that I can do is 's*d all' - so this is all good stuff...

And to carry on... if you thank someone and they say:

"Think nothing of it"

Then say "Okay then" and never refer to or acknowledge the favour ever again - and se how hurt they look!

Such a strange request!

I've always thought that was an odd thing to say too!

My favourite is when people say "I could care less". So you care a whole lot then?

emoticon Good one!

Here's another... when running late, my wife'll look at the clock and say:

"Is that clock right?"

And I feel like saying:
"No... I'm such a witty fellow, I adjusted it in order to confuse you and fill my life full of mirth and mischief!"

Of course... I never say that... but I may one day!

How about when you walk in to the house soaking wet and someone asks, "Is it raining out?".

emoticon I know what she means though - does sound daft!

Also - has someone ever said to you:

"Here... have I been here before?"

How the HECK would you know, unless you were with them 24/7...
