If you would have have X & Y instead of your hand and he would have had X & Y instead of his hand and the board didn't read A, B & C we would have had a jackpot.

Ugh. It's even worse when this "joke" is written into the script of a sitcom.

On a related note: when a character in a sitcom gets all freaked out when he finds out that his medical tests have come back "negative". I distinctly remember this on Seinfeld, and last year on The Office. I found it sad that such otherwise great shows would be so lazy as to use this tired joke.

I watched the first episode of 30 Rock. They did that lame joke several times. That show was a cliche sandwich with a side of cliche.

Every hockey announcer in the history of broadcasting: "Goaltending will be important in this game/series/tournament."

Black comedians who are always talking black/white "Cause if you a brotha, you know........"

When someone spills a beer, the turd who says "whoa, alcohol abuse..."

People spouting off facts about Marijuana/ arguing for legalization. Get a new cause, goofball.

Vietnam wasn't a war. It was a conflict.

I was in an English course in college, and some annoying kid found it necessary to correct the 60 year-old English teacher on this point. She tore him up something like Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting in the bar scene. I had never heard of about half the words she used. He just sat there and stared. I wish I had that on tape.
