Everyone says, but very few actually do.
It's basically a polite way of telling someone that what they're going through sucks but it's not your problem
Now, if you ACTUALLY keep the person in your thoughts and prayers, AND make at least some effort to help them, then you're using this phrase with meaning. But most people use this phrase to politely say they don't give a damn about what you're going through.

The Correct Usage:
Jake: My Mom died.
Dan: Thoughts and Prayers for you guys
Jake: Dude is that really all you can give me?
Dan: No, I actually mean it, we can talk about it whenever you want and I'm always here for you. I had something similar happen a while ago.
Wrong Usage
Jake: My Mom Died
Dan: Thoughts and Prayers
Jake: Is that all you've got to help?
Dan: Yeah, I'm going through some tough crap too, my Instagram account got locked

Get the Thoughts and Prayers mug.A negative or unwanted effect of an otherwise positive thing. The term is most commonly used in prescription drugs. Marriage has a major side effect too, your mother-in-law.

Get the Side Effects mug.An incredible disappointment and an incredible failure. Like, this makes a failing drug addict high school dropout look like a HUGE SUCCESS.
I had a shitty 2019 for personal reasons, and I went into 2020 thinking it was gonna be my year. I was finally going to turn my life in the right direction, I was going to start fresh, and I was going to go down the right path. I woke up on January 1, 2020 as enthusiastic as ever.
Oh, who the hell was 2020 kidding? Literally the day after I said 2020 was my year, I hear that there's a deadly coronavirus going around in China. Okay, I thought, maybe they'll contain it, maybe the international community will handle it, maybe it will all be fine, and mayb..... NOPE!
Two weeks later, the outbreak has reached the US. Okay, I thought, maybe the US, with our great hospital system, huge economy, high human development index will handle it. Maybe we'll close our borders, maybe we'll do some minor containment measures, maybe if we all wash our hands it will be fine, and mayb... NOPE!

People in the US (including politicians on both sides) totally downplayed, lied, and made this political. So COVID-19 reached America and on March 13, 2020, we shut down. My school switched to online, my grades rapidly deteriorated, and my life went to crap again. My life had just turned around for the better, it was shooting up, but there had to be that glass ceiling that would bounce me back, and my head smashed into the ground. Worse, our country went into huge unrest, the economy went into the toilet, and we all got divided. We narrowly avoided world war on several occasions. Our freedoms have been taken away in the name of containing a virus that has already spread far, far beyond the point of containment. Wildfires, hurricanes, second and third waves of COVID-19 have made this already terrible year worse. It's starting to feel like a movie. This year is just so insanely bad. It's unprecedented. You know what 2020, I expected a lot from you, I wanted to turn my life around, but NOPE! Now I have zero faith in 2021, but dear 2021, please prove me wrong and I will be eternally grateful.
Fuck 2020, I had faith in you and you failed so bad. If a future generation reads this, don't forget 2020, it's the worst tragedy in history since WW2.

Get the 2020 mug.A man who owned a private island where he abused underage children. A former US President and a British Prince, among others, knew exactly what he was doing but didn't report it to the authorities. He also DID NOT kill himself.

Get the Jeffrey Epstein mug.A way society continues to abuse men. Men who are duped into signing court papers and never get to see their kids because of their bitch of an ex wife have to pay it, yet, they NEVER get to see their kids. Also, how come a woman can have an abortion without any consent from the dad but yet still expects him to pay if she doesn't have one? How come the dad has no rights yet tons of responsibilities for the child?
It's a societal abuse of divorced men.

Get the Child Support mug.by Xxxxxxxxfanboyxxxxxxxxxx July 06, 2020
Get the Sex mug.A man who is wrongly portrayed as evil. He was not evil, racism was simply a fact of life back then. He also didn’t kill all native Americans, most of them died by disease.
Keep Christopher Columbus day! He was a smart man who gave birth to the modern Western Hemisphere. None of us Americans would be here without him. He didn’t slaughter all the Natives, disease killed them.
