My personal favorite lately brought to my attention by the installer of our mini split Airconditioner/ heat pump system is “Stuff like that”. He eventually did an OK job and with our recent heat/ humidity wave, we’re very happy it’s installed even though it took him a year to install 5 heads and two compressor units.
In my first conversation with him he used the phrase “and Stuff like that “ no less than 25 times in a 3 minute conversation, I kid you not. It got so annoying I started referring to him as and stuff like that when having conversations with my wife. Over time I’ve gotten so attuned to the phrase being used by a lot of folks, even hearing news announcers/ reporters on Public radio using it.
So now when my wife happens to be gone for a day and texts me asking what I did all day its not necessary to provide a list of my accomplishments, I just say played with the dog and stuff like that. And we both get a laugh out of it.
So get off my lawn and let me change the oil on my bike, drink a beer and stuff like that.
