Dumbass Sayings: “Basically”

It’s always funny to me when someone starts off a sentence with the word “basically.” They’ll say something like “Basically, you’ve got an inoperable tumor in your pancreas.” Let’s just get one thing straight, if you’re trying to say something “basically” that means you’re trying to speak in the most essential, stripped down, distilled fashion possible. Therefore, simply adding the word “basically” in there is defeating your intention. If you want to say something “basically” then just say it and leave as many unnecessary words out as you can. Adding a nine letter word in there is only serving to do the opposite of what you claim to be trying to do. It’s sort of like how people say “I literally took a dump so hard my asshole burst into flames.” That did not LITERALLY happen. People need to stop using words that end in “-ally” because nearly every time you do it never helps your sentence. It’s simply filler that people use to fluff their sentences up to make them seem more substantial.

Basically nebulas are just god farts.

Dumbass Sayings: “Need I Say More?”

Need I say more?

When people say “Need I say more?” they sound like they just got hit over the head with a hammer. When they say “Need I say more?” they mean to say is “Do I need to say more?” So the answer to their question is “Yes. The words ‘do’ and ‘to’.” And also move the ‘I’ over. You can’t just take words out of sentences like that. Words are in sentences because they mean things. Certain small words like ‘do’ and ‘to’ might seem unnecessary, but they serve to make us NOT sound like Scandinavian tourists. Understand I say? See how dumb when words taken out? Sound stupid I? Brain damaged Yoda maybe? Well there’s an easy way to correct that, just speak normally.
