This is The List According to Marty Beller. Some of these are historic, some more recent, some contributed by other They Might Be Giants band members and Pat Dillett.
[edit] The List According to Marty Beller
These are all things They are not allowed to say within the band:
- too much information
- off the hook
- that’s what (s)he said
- my bad
- game changer
- crackberry
- that’s how we roll
- I can’t work under these conditions
- playing the (whatever) card
- throw under the bus
- drinking the kool-aid
- LOL
- phone tag
- don’t go there
- it’s all good
- it is what it is
- talk to the hand
- think outside the box
- off the reservation
- oh no you didn’t
- I threw up a little in my mouth
- one hundred and ten percent
- IMHO
- no worries (No worries enjoys a unique "workplace dispensation" where it can be used with a co-worker to help decompress a work situation.)
- jumped the shark
- voted off the island
- (anything) on acid
- (anything) from hell
- (anything) on steroids
- literally (unless it’s actually used properly)
Of course the list itself is now on the list.
