Derived from the Simpsons episode "Post Cards from the Wedge," a prayer block is done when one makes a prayer before another person and, on perpose, negating another persons prayer with one's own prayer.
ex. 1
Marge: (While praying) Dear Lord, please give my stubborn husband the wisdom to see that I am right as usual.
Homer: Too late Marge, I already use the prayer block on your prayer.
ex 2
Guy: Thank god I did a prayer block months ahead so the Yankees could win another World Series.

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

Someone who prays to God only when they want something as opposed to actually doing something about it, and otherwise does nothing else to further his kingdom. Typical behavior includes leaving their megachurch on a Sunday morning to have lunch at a restaurant and berate the server for working that day.
Here come the prayer warriors, everyone hide the gays and put out your cigarettes or we're all going to hell!
