    Stop saying "Is in a good place"

    I got banned from the WoW forums for geting annoyed but why does everyone always say "Class is in a good place"

    Is your Death Knight on vacation? Is your Feral Druid in heaven? Is your Frost Mage eating ice cream? Just say the class is fine on live, STOP SAYING "INSERT CLASS IS IN A GOOD PLACE"

    Stop insisting people stop using a common phrase because it annoys you.

    Cool your jets and move on.

    You got banned for making a pointless thread. The thread is still pointless, even on these forums.

    Why do you think it's your place to dictate how others communicate their feelings about a subject?

    There are plenty of expressions which are used to mean something other than what they mean literally, deal with it.

    You got banned from the wow forums for being a metaphor Nazi. What makes you think things will end differently if you come here with the same inflated rant?

    You'd be in a much better place if you just chillaxed a little, bro.

    Chill with the overused Phrases and MEME's bro

    while we are at it stop saying the following cause it grows tiring:

    L2P
    INB4
    what is this I don't even...
    ^this
    every comment with cookie somewhere in it
    anything referring to "wrath babies" or similar
    QQ
    I call troll
    fail "insert word" is fail
    you mad bro

    The list goes on but I think I made my point. Also stop using the letters A-Z (A-Ö for some countries) cause they have been used for far too long.

    Oh and yeah writing stuff filled with irony and sarcasm is bad too.

    Shall we make a contest of what I really think?
    1st prize is a cookie and last place is a hat saying "wrath baby"

    I'm pretty sure that thousands of years of gradual changes in how languages develop isn't just going to stop because you don't like it.

    Just because your Frost Mage is eating ice cream (which I 100% agree is delicious btw, if you don't like ice cream you can basically gfto.), doesn't mean that your Frost Mage is 'in a good place.' Even though ice cream is great, it doesn't make terrible places good. Your Frost Mage could be eating ice cream at a terrible little kids birthday party that he is required to attend due to family/relationship obligations. Your Frost Mage could be eating ice cream in prison (inmates need dessert too). OR, perhaps even worse, your Frost Mage could be eating ice cream in New Jersey - Gross.


    Also, the word "place" doesn't need to describe a physical location. Saying that "Class A is in a good place" is an easier way of saying that "Class A is performing well relatively to the other classes in the game." I don't know if this will change your mind, because if you find something annoying its hard to fix.

    I for one cannot stand it when sportscasters say something like the following: "Shaq is out of the game with a knee" or "Brett Farve will be out 2-3 years with a hip" or "Manny will miss 2 weeks with a hamstring". I know that the world "injury" is implied after the body part, but it will forever annoy the heck out of me, so do some degree, I feel your pain. Luckily, "in a good place" doesn't bother me.

    What is this I don't even...

    "Here's the thing..." to you. (Why is it the thing by the way? Aren't there other things? What makes this one thing THE thing and not just A thing? How many times can different things be "the thing" before the phrase loses its meaning hmm?) Nobody cares what your preference on their vocabulary is. I think people sound like dumbasses when they say ridiculous shit like "irregardless," "a whole nother," or use words like "awsome" as a noun (i.e. full of awsome, that thing has so much awesome, etc.) but I deal with it because I learned when I was about 5 years old how to interact with other people without being a nag.

    While we're on the subject, you're telling me to "get over" a bad phrase? Why not under, or around, or through? Why do I have to get OVER it?

    All the damn internet literalists need to get over themselves. You're all worse than the people who say the stupid things to begin with.

    It means they're in a good place on the list of classes, not like a physical location.
