More Stupid Expressions I Can Do Without, Thank You.

Stan Freberg here. There's a few expressions I'd just as soon never hear again, like "Generation X" to describe all young people. My 24-year old son, who falls into that category, hates it. Me too. More after this. [:60 SPOT BREAK]

Freberg here. If I never again heard the new age expression, "Get in touch with your feelings," it'd be fine with me. "Ouch!" "What happened?" "I hit my thumb with this hammer!" "Mmm...you need to get in touch with your feelings." "I am--my thumb is in touch with my feelings!" Please, spare us the psycho-babble.

Another line that drives me nuts is, "Let's dialogue about that." When did "dialogue"--a noun--become a verb? What's the matter with the word "talk"? "Can we talk about that?" Fine...just so we don't "dialogue" about it.

I have to go get in touch with my feelings now. Maybe I'll send them a postcard.
