More About This Title It's Not Rocket Science

English

In the last 30 years new technology, fashion, and social set-ups have spawned new clichés galore. Everything on the Internet is available at the "click of a mouse," TV hosts ask the audience to "give it up" when they want them to applaud, call centers 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." This collection sifts through all aspects of modern life to find the most prevalent, ubiquitous, and downright irritating clichés of our age.
