The next time you’re tempted to claim there’s nothing of value on the Internet, just remember that it gave us this:
Wow! Whoa! Wow!

I wish I could take credit for this, but I’m not feeling nearly inventive enough. Dan Schneider at DanWarp has compiled a list of phrases it’s time to retire. Again, I didn’t come up with the list, but I agree with its contents, which is really the important thing, isn’t it?
Phrases That Aren’t as Cool or Funny as They Once Were:
- “Not so much,” and its even more tired cousin, “Eh, not so much.”
- “Too much information!”
- “And by [that] I mean [this].”
- “I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.”
- “Good times.”
- “Did I say that out loud?”
- “_____ much?” (e.g., “Jealous much?” “Angry much?”)
- “Hey, stop eating my dinner, Eatie McEaterson!” (or any similar phrase that ends in Blank-y McBlankerson)
- “Really?!“
- “It’s like a party in my mouth.” (in reference to food or drink that tastes good)
- “Hey, don’t go there!”
- “Burn!” (spoken after someone has delivered an insult)
- “Alrighty then.”
- “Ya THINK?”
- “Thanks for sharing.”
- “Best. _____. Ever.”
- “Oh, snap!”
- “Business.” (as in referring to one’s personal body parts as your, his, or her “business”)
Phrases That Aren’t Attempting to Be Funny, but Still Need to Be Retired:
- “At the end of the day.”
- “It is what it is.”
- “It’s all good.”
- “Just sayin’.”
- “Epic win” and “epic fail.”
- “Pics or it didn’t happen.”
- “That’s how I roll” or “That’s how we roll.”
- “I’m not gonna lie…”
