Re: Expressions that bug you

It's everywhere because it is a commonly used phrase and has survived from older more religious generations to today. I like that connection with the past.

OP
yeah, I guess one person's "kitschy and overused" can be another person's "traditional and familiar".

I get that. I guess I just find the idea of tradition for the sake of tradition even if it no longer makes sense a bit odd. I'm totally cool with traditions. But in this case the phrase does sound like it means a specific thing and it seems a little odd to me to use it when you don't mean that. It doesn't exactly bother me, I just don't really get it.
