Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

      I mean, it’s the phrase itself and that I can’t escape hearing it.

      I often say versions of stuff myself like “Dear God”, “God in heaven” etc in other languages when I express things and react to stuff.

      I cuss and swear like a cocksucking, shiteating dogfucker too in everyday conversations, so I wouldn’t describe myself as crude or offended by stuff. Swearing over here mentions hell and devil a lot, so I’m not a stranger to popping off those ones, either.

      It’s just that phrase specifically in English that irks me as boring and unimaginative for being overused everywhere. Throwing that phrase in English during non-English speech just sounds more like aping stuff than a genuine expression. Vanilla is at a quadrillion Scoville scale compared tho the phrase.

      Specifically that three-worded phrase. Not “Oh, God” or"My God" - I don’t have anything to say about them. It’s about the whole “Oh, my god” package.

      I am sick and tired of hearing that one everywhere I turn or go.
