Okay, let’s cut to the chase. Let’s really get down to brass tacks here: I hate clichés. At the end of the day, when all is said and done, when it really comes down to it, in the final analysis, I’d have to say I really can’t stand em. I wish people wouldn’t rely on them so much in their writing or in conversation, but you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, and I suppose some people are too old to change now. Sure, you could try to get them to think with some hint of originality, but like they say, you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink. Sorry if I offend anyone with this, but I’m the kind of guy who calls a spade a spade. I hope there’s no hard feelings, cuz I’m honestly quite nice - I’m all mouth and no trousers, and my bark is worse than my bite. So don’t hit me, cuz, like they say, two wrongs don’t make a right. I know you’re thinking I’m like a pot calling the kettle black, because everyone thinks they’re original when really they’re not, but, honestly, I really am! I’ve never used a cliché in my life, and I don’t intend to start now! I know it won’t make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things, but at least I’ll know I thought for myself. So, rant over. It’s all academic now. It’s done and dusted, and if I’ve pissed anyone off I hope in time it’ll just be water under the bridge. And if you disagree with me, just think what a boring world it would be if we all thought the same! Oh, wait...
