There's a new idiom I've been hearing as of late where people use "put to condition of." For example instead of saying "I ate the bagel" people say "I put the bagel to condition of eaten." Or instead of "I watched the movie" they say "I put the movie to condition of watched."

Someone told me the other day that a DNA test "put my children on condition of cat."

There is this guy that I see walking in and out of my office building who looks so plain. He has this face that isn't handsome, nor is it unappealing, he dresses blandly, never really has an expression. Betimes I wonder about how many times his ******** come up in his mind and I think, I bet this plain, uninteresting looking man's penis is just as important to him as a hot, tone, chiseled-jawed dude in a bespoke suit.


If said dude in a bespoke is approaching asexual, I would say perchance, it is more often.

Did you give the first person you heard use this idiom a swift kick in the ****/knackers? And if not why not?

I am the first person I heard say it. But I didn't mean it to catch on like wildfire as a idiom I was just trying to vary up my modes of speech for practice.

Me and the fiancé are looking at finally getting off our parent's cell phone plans and getting our own. Couldn't find the things that are pissing you off thread, but holy **** are cell phone plans so expensive. I mean I know how much my parent's bill is and I pay my part, but it's still hard to stomach paying $160+ a month for cell phone usage.

Why hasn't att or Verizon just come out with a Couple's $100/mo plan for like 10 gigs of data and unlimited everything else?

Plus I hate this new month payment thing for the phones. I was always spoiled paying the subsidized prices of $199 or $299 and I know it's the same thing as paying full price, but it's not like the plans have gotten any cheaper because of full price devices now. Verizon doesn't even give you the subsidized option anymore, whereas At&t does.

This is a funny thread.
I never felt like I had a reason to tell someone that this bothers me,so...

I don't get when people roll their car windows down they leave those 2" sticking up.
This does not help with wind noise,aerodynamics or anything else,why not just roll it all the way down?
aaahhhhh!

They wanna look like a cool cat. Same with the moonroof tilt.

Personally I just drive around with my side mirrors retracted. I get in a lot of little accidents changing lanes but I look real sleek. Totes worth it.
