       This brings me to my pet peeve. Why do people (myself included)
find it easier to say key phrases instead of what they really mean?
Especially when everyone knows what the term _really_ means. For
examples:
	 Good Friends
	 Get Together (This may only exist in the religious circles,
		       where dating is taken with more weight.)
	 You're not my type (Although the real question here is why is
		       less offensive.)
		    etc...
