The phrase is quite the beaten horse at this point, overused and pointless, that i agree with. I think its been overused in part to highlight how silly it is, making the people who use it unironically look like absolute dorks.
Its a little similar to how in Germany, theres a new synonym for cannabis, called ‘Bubatz’. Its origins are unclear, it sounds super silly and has been instrumentalized in the decriminalisation of cannabis. Many people have strong reactions when they hear that word, which in turn motivates other people to keep using that word. It boils down to people wanting to rile up other people for no reason!
the first 10,000 times yeah I can get behind the silly view. The next 90,000 times, it just becomes this tired useless phrase uttered mindlessly to the point that you question the well being of the arch users who utter it. That’s what I mean by toxic. I consider my own sanity for using arch every time I hear this phrase.
how is it toxic? Nonsense… just a silly phrase, nothing more.
Its like a platitude but it’s not even well-meaning.
I’m pretty sure my next metal band name is going to be called ‘death by platitudes’ (I’m kidding, but I trust you get the idea…)
Cool, i learned a new word thanks to you!
