My wife:

Combines Meander and weasel and says lets Measel down this street.

Two Peas in a POT.

Nip it in the BUTT.

She once asked her friend what IDK meant. Her friend said, "I don't know" My wife said, yeah I don't know either....

When I was about 16 I was about 10 feet from a woman who was hit by a car while in a crosswalk. Pretty bad head injury. I told someone that she was bleeding like a stuffed pig.

I had a friend in college who swore that Deep Purple's greatest hit was "Slow Walkin' Walter"

There's probably a million British ones so don't know what translates but our youngsters are now masters of tautology.

"I'm not being funny (as in offensive) but ......" then stating something offensive
"I'm not gonna lie to you" before delivering facts or opinions - like you have to swear on a bible before you say it

Yep.

When you lead with "no offense, but..." means the next thing you will say will be offensive.

Somehow leading with that makes it ok?

With all due respect...

I am sorry if you were offended...

When is Larry Dobey Day? He dealt with the exact same as Robinson only a couple months later in a different league and different cities.
