I hate nothing so much as a cliché and always try my best to avoid them. In everyday speech i mean, and also the clichéd occassion is one of my biggest hates, or sources of discomfort. Thus it is that sometimes i struggle to express myself, as i can by no means avoid the clichéd sentiment, unexpressed as it may be.
A cliché is dead language, a sure sign of not just unoriginal thought but actual lack of thought, mental lethargy. I am only saying this for myself, applying these standards only to myself, out of a feeling of necessity.
