ieatcrayonz Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I hate redundancy. Check out this headline.. Forget the article, I'm just talking about the headline. Isn't that like drowning a fish or killing a dead horse?
Wooderson Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I hate redundancy. Check out this headline.. Forget the article, I'm just talking about the headline. Isn't that like drowning a fish or killing a dead horse? Absolutely. Jeez that sure is redundant.
Cugalabanza Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Yup, this deserves to become a popular expression. Sort of the exact opposite of “gilding the rose.” You could say “that’s like urinating on a woman from Jersey” to mean that it is impossible for your actions to bestow any more degradation than is already inherent in a given situation. In fact, it becomes ironic because urinating on a woman from Jersey might actually wash off a little bit of her disgusting whore make-up, thereby actually improving her situation slightly overall.
Cugalabanza Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I just realized that my last post could be considered incredibly misogynistic. But then I realized: girls never read crayonz threads. So, we’re all good.
Chef Jim Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I'm with ya man. Redundancy is one of those pet peeves that really pisses me off.
Philly McButterpants Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Know what I hate? Going to the ATM Machine and having to use my PIN Number.
Magox Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 I sometimes walk in circles only to find out that I've been there before.

That is harsh. I was talking specifically about Jersey City, not the whole State of New Jersey. Believe it or not, there are actually parts of New Jersey that are almost tolerable for short stints.
