Get A Life!

[Sqad]

Apart from the annoying habit of postings using the christian names of ABers instead of their Username or a shortened version of it , we see time and time again the post of "get a life"
What does that mean? What sort of life? Joining AQB, waving at each other, chatting in the morning, doing crosswords, OR, going to the gymn, playing tennis, seeing how much we weigh and telly AB?
What does it mean? To me it is meaningless and should be avoided.

It may be trivia to you but not to the poster, who decides what is trivia and unimportant as opposed to relevant comments.

it means " stop obsessing over trivia "

in Cheers, cliff, lolling against the bar, I think, says- " hey Coors ( a lager) spelt backwards is "Srooc"
and the bar tender says - o get a life

Grow a pair - is 'Man up!' - - in typical AB speak - someone is gonna ask: " Man up what?"
In an evg class exam ( v impt ) a student was complaining about the hardness of the seats and I exclaimed " Oh! Girl up!" - and a younger student whispered another: " did you hear what that old aged pensioner said to the other old codger?"

A bit tautological that isn't it? If you don't, "give a ...", why does it annoy you?

This is what I often think about typing when the great and the good tell us what how good they are and how good their lives are and how many people they have helped today!
Its like seriously!

Candidate for word of the day there, Khandro, and yes I was aware that I too was stating what I find annoying - that was the idea!
