Chris Cillizza, author of the Washington Post’s ‘The Fix’ blog, had a wisdom tooth pulled this morning and decided to overshare. Pain loves company, we guess!
Novocaine applied…..

Other Twitter weren’t impressed with this epitome of TMI, or “too much information.”
@TheFix Holy shit! You're *tweeting* while getting a wisdom tooth pulled?? Really do not know what to say about that.

Buzzkill! What’s wrong with experiencing things in the company of Twitter?

They were more impressed with his, perhaps novocaine-inspired, listing of worst and best current phrases.

4th worst phrase in English language: "my bad" followed by "it's all good".

@michaelscherer @TheFix "See what I did there?" has to be moving into contention.

@TheFix You only say its best now because it hasn't been overused yet like the others you call "worst". Give it a year of everyone saying it

Another addition: "True story." @TheFix Recap worst phrases: 1. It is what it is 2. Haters gonna hate 3. See what I did there.

@TheFix What about "Oh, snap!"?

Gasp!
For those asking, yes there is a correlation between my wisdom tooth coming out and my riffs about worst phrases. Look, it is what it is.

Where does TMI stand on your list, Chris? See what we did there? 😉 True story.
