Poll: Most Annoying Cliche on BFSSFG
I know, all cliches are annoying. But which one really bugs you?
"Steel is Real" really does it for me. It's completely meaningless, with just a hint of beligerence.
[Edit] Man, you guys are quick on the draw. Four replies before I even finished the poll.

"IMHO", "AFAIK", "do a search", and MOST of all, "just shut up and ride".

My FAVORITE occurrence however, although technically not called "cliche", is when dutret tears somebody up.
