"Perfect storm" of cliches make bad English list

  • #41
My 11 yo DS has started saying "and whatnot". It has been making me completely bonkers. It sounds so odd coming out of his mouth. The other day I was talking to his best friend's mom and she said it twice in 10 minutes, so at least now I know where he picked it up.

I guess it could be much worse, but now he knows it bugs me so he is saying it even more. :rolleyes:
