My friend and I like to text each other these awful clichés when we hear them so we can share the eye roll.

When I worked in a shop selling organic products the amount of people coming to the till all annoyed saying while paying it probably all grows off the same tree/ in the same field.
If you believe that why are you shopping here then???

Or when i was younger and i might happen to mention my parents were away. 'Party at your house!'
Heard that 6 times at work one day.
