Common sense isn't so common

(phrase / life observation / savage truth)

A brutally honest way to say that just because something seems obvious, most people will still find a way to mess it up. Perfect for moments when humanity disappoints you, usually in public or online.

Used when:

Someone does something completely avoidable or facepalm-worthy.

You realize society collectively skipped the “how to adult” manual.

You want to sound smart while judging idiots.

Meaning: Humans often act in ways that defy logic, and that’s on them.

Synonyms: “Apparently, this is optional,” “Logic is rare,” “Humanity, why?”

Examples of contexts in which common sense isn't so common:

Coworker: “I put metal in the microwave.”
You: “Common sense isn’t so common.”

Friend: “I just walked into traffic because I was texting.”
You: “Common sense isn’t so common.”

Internet comment section: literally anything ever.

I'm so good syndrome

When you think you're so skilled, but in reality it's your teammates/characters that are doing all the heavy lifting. Resorting in you falling behind.

Josh: "wow I thought this game was supposed to be hard, I've cleared 11 stages already! I'm the best at this game". In reality Josh pulled a 5 star hero early on.

Josh was later on team wiped on stage 15, for disregarding lobby upgrades, and for not paying attention to his hero's needs/upgrades; Thus he has I'm so good syndrome.

Nut So Raven

When you bust a nut and have a ‘That So Raven’ esque premonition. Can vary in length and vividness. If the vision is too cloudy and vague, one may be susceptible of misconstruing said vision.

Dude right after I nutted I saw that the Stars won the Cup.

Bro, are you sure this isn’t a nut so Raven type scenario where you just saw Hully bury the OT winner from the past??

Nah bro, I get why you’d think that but I saw glass banger and tits McGee in my vision as well.

why so genius?

used when someone does something smart/genius. Typically used sarcastically but can also be used as a genuine compliment.

person 1: yo dude check out this apple pie that I made.

*person 2 takes bite*

person 2: *mph* why does it taste so different?

person 1: yeah I ran out of apples so I used pears instead, you could call it a pear pie

person 2: yoooo, why so genius?
