You know that old expression, ''You cant have your cake and eat it too''? That makes absolutely no sense. First, if I cant eat the cake then why bother having it. Second, once I am in possession of said cake, what is preventing me from eating it?
When some one is talking to you then says, "you know?" Well, if I already know this, why are you
wasting both our time telling it?

Watch ESPN some time. A player from a team can't answer a question or give an opinion
without using the two words, "you know", again and again, and again,.....

We will attempt to procure a government grant to fund a study to determine whether or not it is possible to possess a cake and eat it too.

How is it that to have your head in the clouds is considered a bad thing.

But blue sky thinking is considered a good thing.

Huh ???

When people say "Excuse yourself" after you belch or something...

What they mean is that they want you to say "Excuse me", but that would be you making a request to be excused, not excusing yourself. To excuse yourself, you'd have to say "I am excused" or something to that effect.

Something people say doesn't make sense:

Person 1: So what did you do at work/school/DisneyLand/other location today?
Person 2: oh nothing. *exits room and/or immerses themselves into a task*

Even though they very obviously did something.

Ok fine. I admit it. =P I tend to say "nothing" when my dad askes how school went. Especially when there happens to be a book within the immediate vincity (or in my hands) Me equals extreme book worm :D:D :D

"ATM machine". The word "Machine" is redundant as ATM stands for Automated Teller Machine. So writing "ATM machine" is in fact Automated Teller Machine machine....huh? o_O

"It's so hot outside you can fry an egg on the sidewalk". Who in the world would you want to fry an egg on the sidewalk? Yuck!

"I slept like a baby". Oh really? So you woke up crying in the middle of the night then your mommy fed you, changed your diaper, and rocked you back to sleep? :eek: That doesn't seem like a sound sleep to me. Lol

That's known as a tautology, haha. And yes, it is irritating.

When my someone says...Can I get a some help? Or Can I drive your car? I always say back...I don't know, can you?

I covered that earlier in the thread, haha.

You covered the "can I"

My point was the "please" (manners)
Some people... what they are really asking is...
"Give me the keys to your car so I Can drive it."
With out the "please may I"...it's more like a demand, then a question.
