What shall we do with people who are always using the phrase, “you go girl.”?

Can we move on from using such stupid, meaningless phrases. I mean, you go girl…..enough of that already. i think we have Oprah to blame for this one.

Not Oprah…Ricki Lake. Possibly Jenny Jones, but definitely Ricki Lake.

She even had an episode about a “Rick-tionary” about phrases commonly heard on the Ricki Lake show like “All That and A Bag of Chips” or “Drop The Zero & Get You A Hero.” She trotted out black person after black person to tell white people what they meant (of course, most of her audience was black, so that’s why the phrase appeared on her show so often).

The solution? Boycott Hairspray, the movie based on the hit Broadway musical…which they forget to mention was based on the John Waters movie starring…Ricki Lake.

I don’t think stupid meaningless phrases will ever just disappear, it’s kind of like Paris Hilton copy writing the phrase “that’s hot”. It’s stupid, and people that feel the need to use the same phrase over and over again… well let’s not go into what I’d like to happen. Plain in simple, it’s annoying.

Lock them in the same room with people who use the phrase “get ‘er done” and see who survives.
