“Thought-Terminating Cliches”
I don’t think yolo has ever been used to end a discussion. It’s used to start the fun 😂
Yeah I can get behind the others being thought enders but ‘you only live once’ it’s a phrase I use unironically pretty frequently. Life is short and you should do whatever it is you want to do while you’re here as long as it doesn’t harm others.
That’s the way the cookie crumbles
We’ve always done it this way
What can you do?
It is what it is.
I once heard them as “everlasting thought stoppers” and now I can’t call them anything else.
Ok so we have figured out this issue, now we just need to put together a list of counter-spells
Well yeah at some point people get tired hearing you talk endlessly
Let’s agree to disagree
It do be like that sometimes.
I’ve always considered phrases like that, just giving up and not wanting to pursue talking about something because IDGAF.
But intelligent people have a definition for it. thought-terminating cliche. I just wanted to write that out so I remember it.
My, I like to think - healthy, version: I don’t have energy for this.
Considering what group this is, I’m surprised I’ve not seen anyone mention “not essential to your salvation”.
That sounds like a “tomorrow” problem
