Get over it

An Eagles Song from the 1994 album "Hell Freezes Over".
Written & sung by Don Henley in response to the daytime TV trash of the time.
It became a widely used catch phrase throughout the rest of the 90's.
The 911 attacks made the song politically incorrect and it fell off radio station playlists.
"I'd like to find your inner child and kick it's little ass" was a great line from the song get over it.

Get over it

The act of climbing over the obstacle in your way. Because it’s the only way forward.

Can also be recognized as something a narcissist might say.

Not to be confused with get over yourself and/or climb over yourself. Which can be a statement of encouragement as opposed to an accusation or attempt to minimize one’s struggles or circumstances.
Not a person: you need to get over it!

Personally : I need to climb over myself, hey buddy, why don’t you climb over yourself guy?

Not a person: I’m not your buddy, guy

Build a bridge and get over it

It's a sarcastic, humorous, & somewhat bitchy thing to say, when somebody keeps complaining about an event that happened, or a situation, & they just need to get the hell over it.
Example one -
Girl one: *crying* My boyfriend John broke up with me yesterday!
Girl two: That's terrible, I'm so sorry!
(...7 months later...)
Girl one: *crying* I still can't believe John broke up with me...
Girl two: Oh for fucks sake, build a bridge and get over it.

Example two -
Boy one: UGHHHHH! I'M SO HUNGRY!!!!!!!!
Boy two: Dude, you've been complaining for 30 minutes about your hunger. Nobody cares! Build a bridge, and get over it.
