they

"they" are the people who are accountable for anything that you can't remember the original source for. If you know an interesting proverb or sound peice of advice, you use the term of "they" to attach it to, so when things go horribly wrong from said advice, the imaginary "they" group can take the responsibility off your shoulders. Also a way to seem smart by remembering good advice, without having any hard facts to back it up.
"you know what "they" say, lying only leads to more lies"
"they" do, do "they"?"
"yes, "they" do"
"who the fuck is this "they" everyone talks about?"
"you know....."they"."
"they" are pretty fucked up saying obvious shit all the time"

The They People

The They People are the extremely large group of people who other people love to talk about. The They People know everything, are constantly giving advice, are experts in every field, and seem to be filled with expressions and sayings. The They People are vets, lawyers, doctors, philosophers, military, teachers, librarians, and any other profession you can think of.
“They warned me my aquarium should only have 1 inch of fish for each gallon of water.”
“They moved the Terror Level to yellow.”
“They told me to only tan for 20 minutes the first time.”
“They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away.”
"You know what They say; lying only leads to more lies."
“They do, do They?”
"Yes They do."
"Who the hell is this "They" everyone talks about?”
"You know…They. The They People."
"They" are pretty messed up saying obvious crap all the time."

They Took Our Jobs!

As seen in South Park when people from the future came and took their jobs for less
Darryl Weathers: All right! So, any ideas how we can stop the future from happening? pause
Chet: How about we cause more global warming, so that in the future, the polar ice caps melt, and and it ushers in a new ice age?

Darryl Weathers: pause How the hell is global warming gonna cause an ice age?!

Chet: Well you know, the... global warming could bring on like a climate shift or somethin'?

Darryl Weathers: Chet, you are a f***in' retard, you know that?! Even if global warming were real, which all proven scientific data shows it isn't, it would take millions of years for a climate shift to happen! You think an ice age can just happen all of a sudden-like?

Chet: Well I was just tryin' to be helpful.

Darryl Weathers: Well help yourself to a f***in' science book, 'cause you're talkin' like a f***in' retard! Now, come on people, we've got to think! Damnit, they took our jaorbs!

They Might Be Giants

An ingenious and intensely awesome band with an incomprehensibly novel style consisting of varying musical styles, exuberantly quirky lyrics with inticate wordplay, and overwhelming aesthetic value.
"Well, I don't know--though Flood remains one of They Might Be Giants' most popular albums, I prefer the sheer ebullient eccentricity of Apollo 18."
