The guns more accurate than i am.

To be honest, ive probably said most of these once or twice. But be a member of any community long enough, and recycling of phrases is bound to be seen. Its also pretty fascinating to watch the trends of other people’s and other group’s speech pattern and word or phrase usage.

I know, right?

But even with criteria, people don't pay attention. Poster says he wants to spend under $1,000 and replies come in that you can get a $6,000 widget for $3,000 on craigslist.
