Over last thirty years, new technology, fashion, and social set-ups
have spawned new cliches galore. Everything on the Internet is
available at the 'click of a mouse', TV presenters ask the audience
to 'give it up' when they want them to applaud, call centres tell
us 'we value your call' even though 'all our operators are busy'.
And if you're 'gobsmacked' by all this you may be told to 'get a
life', 'chill out' or 'whatever'. It's Not Rocket Science sifts
through all aspects of modern life to find the most prevalent,
ubiquitous and downright irritating cliches of our age. This
high-octane, caffeine-fuelled, dictionary of cliches highlights the
freshly-hackneyed phrases we're being subjected to 24/7. So how
good is that? And what's not to like?
