I Don’t Give a Damn For the Same Old Played-Out Scenes

The most played-out clichés/quotes/jokes so far in 2004:
- “[blank] Eye For the [blank] Guy” Parodies

- White people saying “Fo shizzle, my nizzle”

- “Whitney and Bobby are doing a reality show? It should be on Court TV!”

- Referring to people or benign inanimate objects as “weapons of mass destruction.”

- “What are we doing bombing [Afghanistan/Iraq/other country] into the stone age- they’re already in the stone age!

- That whole best-golfer-is-black/best-rapper-is-white juxtaposition, which I first heard at least four years ago.

- “What’s an NFL quarterback doing on ‘The Bachelor,’ can’t he get girls on his own?”

- “Freedom Fries”

I forget anything?

Especially since the black/asian guy isn't the best golfer anymore.

"Wardrobe malfunction" jokes have to go.

A bunch of these are so 2003. I haven't heard the stone age one since 2001.

That's just 'cause we haven't bombed anyone in awhile.

"Freedom fries" isn't a 2004 thing at all. I haven't heard anything about it since 2003.
