Overused and empty words

"I'm sorry you feel that way" - what the hell does that mean 'cause it's not an apology?

starting out something with "I'm not gonna lie".

This may be the wrong thread for this - but I'm SO tired of "heinous" pronounced as hee-ni-ous. Where the fuck is the second i?

I will be so happy to never hear the words "Social Distancing" again....

Yes, you're right. Distancing yourself from someone is unsocial.

Yes, you're right. Distancing yourself from someone is unsocial.
