Sarcasm: the last refuge of modest and chaste-souled people when the privacy of their soul is coarsely and intrusively invaded.

Things that Peeve My Pet

It goes without saying...

No it doesn't! For the love of God, does no one see that that phrase is absolutely nonsensical? If it went without saying, then who would even need that phrase?

If it actually did 'go' without saying, then it would be unnecessary to say 'it goes without saying...'. And if it indeed does go without saying and you say 'it goes without saying...' then you are a moron, because you are not recognizing the fact that what you just said does not need saying.

The only time the phrase 'it goes without saying' makes any sense is as an answer or emphasizing someone else's statement. Here is an example:

Jon: Baby poop is still poop, and is not cute.
Jane: That goes without saying.

Now of course if you are a degenerate parent who can't figure out that showing your baby's full diaper to someone is NOT cute, you wouldn't understand that that goes without saying. So I guess with this rant we have come to the conclusion that idiots will be idiots and keep doing and saying idiotic things that shouldn't be done or don't need to be said. I wish I didn't have to say that.
