Cliches that need to end

When I read your thread title, I assumed that you would be another who is complaining about the ending where the entity makes it's sudden ever so shocking... reappearance. Well I've been on this forum a long time now, and I've got to say that yours is the first post to deride the slow motion dropping of any cup/glass/plate... Nonetheless, let's see if there is much more of that in this season's PW.

"A stitch in time, saves your embarrassment." (RIP Ms. Penny LoBello)

Any showing of the ghost, entity, demon, etc. opening their mouths really, really wide to where they look like a ridiculous cartoon.

What am I always telling you? You must pay no attention to what I say.
