Re: POLL.......Biggest choke of the day 12/29/2006
The poll is now closed.
The results showed that over 94% of the respondents thought the Gophers pulled the biggest choke.
Saddam Hussein came in a distant 2nd with just a little over 5% of the vote.
One point to note, Saddam will not choke again...............
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

When you make words for a living, you will inevitably find yourself drawn into certain ruts of repetition. That's why you'll see the same tired clichés popping up in the same media outlets, or often in the writing produced by the same people. Blogs are no different, and are in fact worse -- the increased breadth and depth of volume encourages mass overuse of an even longer list of lazy jokes, references, and turns of phrase. And blog comments and discussions recycle the same slop with alarming regularity. We're as guilty as anyone of these crimes, and likely more guilty than some. We're willing to admit there's a problem though, just like at AA, so we're cataloguing the worst offenders far and wide. After the jump, an annotated list of words, phrases, and terms that have long overstayed their welcome in the media-blogosphere. Send in your own, and as always, feel free to chime in comment-wise."I think we'll be OK"
