Is This Dumb?
I recently concluded yet another discussion with a reference to an old Saturday Night Live sketch. "Bad Idea Jeans," I sadly intoned. But this time someone caught the reference and lit up, saying their family said that too. Very satisfying.
So for March let's count down some useful phrases you should be able to pass but sadly can't, because people won't know what you're talking about.

First off, again from SNL, a question more people should be silently asking themselves:
"Bad Idea Jeans," Saturday Night Live, 29 September 1990. "Dance of the Snowflakes," Saturday Night Live, 14 December 2013. Robert Wellman Campbell, "Good Idea Jeans: Is This Dumb?," RSS Longa, 6 March 2025, public domain via CC0 1.0.
