I hate 'stay safe' and 'socially distanced'.

"I met my friend in the park, socially distanced of course, stay safe everyone!"

Nothing wrong with that, I just hate those terms!

@ButDoUAvocado yes but we have been through this plenty of times.

Selfish. Just fuck off with that.

Ah yes, every bloody advert on the TV or radio

“In these _ times”

Insert troubled, difficult, uncertain, unprecedented, challenging, some other trite adjective...
