    I love this thought, but something has always bothered me about the phrase “living rent free in x head”

    I can’t even explain why I just hate it

      So the phase “living rent free in my head” is living rent free in your head.

        I’m not here to tell you you’re wrong, but go fuck yourself, friend.

        edit: In my defense, I only really get upset about it when I see it, other than that the phrase is chillin somewhere.

        You still may be right tho

      I know just what you mean, but also it sounds like poetry compared to “Ohio skibidi rizz.”

        Say what now? What is that supposed to mean?

      That phrase doesn’t bother me, but I can understand the sentiment. People tend to use the same “clever” phrases over and over, and when there is a phrase you don’t particularly like, you end up hating it after the 100th time.

      In my case, it’s “looking at you, X” where X is not a person. E.g. “I’m looking at you, Unity framework!”

      Or whenever there is a post about a wholesome prank, someone will always comment “See? This is a good prank. Nobody got hurt, everyone laughs.” At this point, I’m inclined to think that people deliberately do it as a version of “First post!!”
