Is it just me or is this phrase being used a lot lately?
It may be something that's been around for awhile, but I seem to be hearing it more and more nowdays.
"The writer's strike stinks."
"I know, people are going to get laid off left and right."
"Yep."
"Well, it is what it is, I guess."
"Yep."
(???)
It's such a weird phrase to me. I don't get it. I've even used it on people who used it on me and it's accepted as a reasonable response to something.
Anyway, just something I noticed...
(And I know I just started the Old Yeller thread, but I'm cutting diet soda out of my diet and I've just drank a cup of coffee... which I rarely do. I'm wired!!!!)
