Lightbulb Saying's we hate !!!

I have some saying's I hate when people say them to me or I read them on a T-shirt or bumper sticker:

1) "What doesn't kill you will only make you stronger". No, what doesn't kill you will probably do permanent damage and make you wish you were dead...sometime's.

2) "..well you are still alive, God must have a special purpose for you". If God had to "almost" kill me to give me a purpose,then why didn't He tell me when I was dead? Everyone has a purpose, you don't have to die to get one.

3) Pain is weakness leaving the body. Gross I hate this saying. Along with " pain let's you know you are still alive" . Wrong again. Pain means something is messed up..and ya better fix it quick!

The one I dont like would be. "it's god's will".

That one really annoys me a lot for some reason. It doesnt seem like it would put god in a good light if a little kid dies and someone says that it's "god's will"...well, gee, that makes it sound like he didnt like the kid so he made the kid sick or whatever it is that killed the kid and took him back.

Oh, and the "Everything happens for a reason". What reason?

"It's all in your head." Yeah that's where it starts...let me tell you the rest of the story......

"But you look so good!" Okay but I feel like CRAP!

"Don't worry, Be Happy!" Spend a day in my life and say that!

"Your coloring's so good today!"
..... what am I, dead?! Yeah, the nice red color seems to accompany that needle prick and burning sensation I have going on in my face!
But, NO, I politely say, "Thank you!"

"Yes, it's all in my head. That's where the brain lesions are located." (ok, I dont know if I have actual brain lesions...mine are in my spine)

Answer to the "but you look SO good...": "and wow...you sound extremely insensitive"

I have no response to the "dont worry, be happy" because I have that stupid song going thru my head and I cant make it stop and I want to go smack Bobby McFerrin for writing that stupid song.
