"The Avi Liberman method"
(Shoutout to DDMS)

Or the most overused line on DDMS in the last year:
"As commenter aaron said it, “I have a hard enough time getting my 2 year old to keep his pants on!”

Does PGGM count as a cliche?

What about *BM?

*BM in the context of a useful use is not cliché, it's a tactic, but using it in a joking manner is surely a DDF cliché.

It’s still a cliche, I think we coined the term here on DDF.

I didn't think of myself as OG, yet http://lmgtfy.com/ or GIYF come to mind rather than Is Google Broken.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I'd say lmgtfy predates GIYF, and maybe "Is your Google broken" came later too, but I'm not sure about that last part.

IDK if they are clichés, but IINM DROPR and HUCA were both coined on DDF.

I DON'T CARE ABOUT LIKES! I REALLY, TRULY DON'T! I was driven by nostalgia alone to start this thread. OKAY?


On a completely unrelated topic... maybe after Shabbosabba, etech0, and S209 see this I may have some likes. They are usually very kind and generous.

I just have charged a royalty.

Honestly, I'm surprised the goalposts gif wasn't borrowed by a certain someone more than Chaim.
