"In these tough economic times"
I meant to post this, but I figured someone else would do it eventually.
The opposite of "boarding hard."
Actually, lets go with that.

"carnage" as synonym for decline in asset value in the market "in these tough economic times." "hemorrhage" is more apt as a figure of speech in capturing the escape of large quantities of liquid from an organ or vessel, though it's also overused. "carnage" makes me think of barbarians and civil war battles.

Describing any mildly distasteful pop cultural trend or artifact as "a sign of the apocalypse."

"aggressive music"
Damo Suzuki: So, um, yeah. Getting older isn't as bad as it sounds. Better than being young & poor (DjDrake) or young & slutty (SG) or young, poor and slutty (Paves); am I right?
Alright, my friends. It's time for another solid little rock jam

"The man."
"The shit."
Wouldn't be surprised if I mentioned these in this thread before, but the'yve have been dated for about 15 years now.
No, it'll be stupid, and we're already doing something stupid.

By god, yes! Let's end all colloquial use of our language. Then we can be as priggish and humorless as the French. Won't that be fun?

No, colloquialism is fine. But I think we can both agree there are certain words and phrases people say that just piss us off.
