Same as we need someone to "hit the ground running" I hate that phrase as no matter how experienced I am in certain roles I'm just not that person who comes in full of confidence like I've worked there for years , I'm quite shy so need a bit of time to find my feet

"Do better!"

Usually screamed out by some entitled stuck up brat on Twitter but it's everywhere and it's disgusting. I can only imagine what my grandparents would have thought if I'd swanned around ordering strangers to "do better"...!

"History/historical" should be reserved for things that are important or noteworthy. E.g. a public figure changing their mind on something isn't "revising history."
