Radio Cliches
Howie Carr did "cliches" as a topic recently and it got me thinking--
what are some of the cliched phrases
you hear on the radio? I could think up two right away,
both said frequently by callers on talk radio:
"I'm a first time caller, long time listener" (sometimes shortened to
"first time, long time")
"That last caller stole my thunder..."
And some more:
"We're the radio station you're helping to build"
(after a station changes its format)
"Another 13 in a row is on its way in minutes!" (Yeah,
after about 10 minutes of commercials)
"You know all the songs" (oldies stations)
