Most times when we communicate among ourselves, we find out that those conversations are filled with many empty words.
Unfortunately, most times we talk and talk without saying most of anything at all.
Check out some of the things we say that actually mean nothing.
LMAO and LOL
Most times, we use "LOL" to end a conversation when chatting with someone. Other times we use it to mean "i only made a joke" or "i know you made a joke." Whenever we type those words, are we really laughing out loud?
There was a time an old lady that lives down my street thought "LOL" meant "lots of love" and the poor woman wrote it for her cat when it died. That incident always makes me laugh each time i remember it.
"LOL" is the most common of all internet slangs which actually means nothing.
NO OFFENSE
When we say "no offense," what we are really saying is this, "i know this is going to offend you, but i had to say it anyway." Saying "no offense" actually makes whatever you intend to say or have already said more annoying and offensive.
BOYS WILL ALWAYS BE BOYS/ MEN WILL ALWAYS BE MEN
This phrase has been used to excuse the wrong doings of young boys. When we use this phrase, it only seems we are saying it is ok for young boys to behave improperly.
Likewise the phrase "men will always be men," which is also used to excuse wrongdoings. A lady might suspect her man is cheating on her and confide in a friend, and that friend says "men will always be men." It only implies that all men should cheat because they are men and it is right for them to cheat.
ONE STEP AT A TIME
There are some certain things in life that we can control, there are also things we cannot control such as time.
There are times when we need to take two or more steps at a time. There are times when we need to complete two or more tasks in a day! In this case taking one step at a time is totally out of the question.
EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON
It is ok to believe that everything happens for a purpose but it is really weird for people to think they can always say that to all victims of tragedy. You shouldn't really say that to soneone that lost a dear one.
GIRLS WILL ALWAYS BE GIRLS
Girls are always known to be lovers of material things such as shoes, handbags and all girly stuff.
When some ladies go to an extent to get what they want, what some people will say is "girls will always be girls". This is doesn't help matters at all because it looks like they are being encouraged to continue going to great lengths to get what they want.
