"God is testing you." "God has a plan." "God never closes a door without opening a window." "I'll pray for you."

Or any other religious bullshit. Keep that shit to yourself. I'm living in the real world.

Oh sweet summer child

Yeah we get it, we've all seen Game of Thrones, too. If you have to be a condescending dick, at least be original.

I use that sometimes on my kids. But I've never seen GoT. That phrase WAY predates that show.

"You are your own worst enemy."

I hate it most when it's true.

Here's a quote used by media shills to defend crappy movies all the time: "[formerly great franchise] is now shitty. And why that's a GOOD THING."

in Dutch we have the saying "act normal, then your already weird enough' I fucking hate that quote so much

"It is what it is." It's such a meaningless truism* and almost always comes across as dismissive of the person you're speaking to. Just say, "It sucks but we have to get through it," or "We can't change this situation" or something else. Literally any alternative. Please!

Not a Quote, but a Barber in my town has the slogan: For Men's and Women's...

"...genitals"?

...hair? Please tell me that the whole slogan is "For Men's and Women's Hair"...

Anything that references prosecco. See: "Come in if you have Prosecco" doormats.
