So difficult...

A while back I resolved not to proselytize my position on glow-bull warmening or politics.
Other people are doing it, and quite a few of them are doing a better job than I ever could.
(For instance MM, HotAir, PajamasMedia, DBD, ConservativeGrapevine)
So... No politics, no matter how stupid B. Hussein Oh-baMessiah and the Damn-o-crats are... And no more railing against Al "Making Money Off Junk Science" Gore and his Band of Idiots.

You will not believe how hard it is not to deride them... Because they make it so very easy.

Let's talk about something else.
Let me check the Doorknob file...

Here's one. The file name is "tired-tired-tired.txt"
Just a list of words and phrases that are overused...
Things I'm really tired of hearing on a regular basis.
(Don't get me wrong- I'm guilty for using some of these, but lately I'm trying to avoid them because they are so overused.)
In many cases using some of these words and phrases is a way for people to try to sound more intelligent, when in reality they are just wasting syllables.
Example- A manager says to an employee:"I need you to be proactive, step up, and take ownership of this process." instead of saying "Do your job."

Here we go:
