"It is what it is." It's such a meaningless truism* and almost always comes across as dismissive of the person you're speaking to. Just say, "It sucks but we have to get through it," or "We can't change this situation" or something else. Literally any alternative. Please!

Namaste. Anyone I've met who uses that word has always turned out to be a preachy, holier than thou, self involved tool.

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"

Both my two-time-car-crash-survivor self with severe PTSD and my breast-cancer-surviving mom (who had to get her boobs chopped off) fucking hate that phrase with a passion. There are some times I have to walk across an intersection and just start crying right there because I'm so terrified. I want to kick the nuts off of whoever came up with that phrase.
