Battling bromides Batman!
Catchy Cliches...Caesar (?) Not so catchy, as an attempt at alliteration, which is another, perhaps overused way to either gain your attention, if not assist your memory...
Prosaic platitudes: Which, while it rolls nicely off, your tongue, is yet another crummy combination, of "lacking poetic beauty" with an idea, concept which is intended to convey moral meanings but gets so over-used it loses its intended impact...
Taunting tautologies: While maybe not guilty of being overused, still considered "a fault of style...saying the same thing twice, with different words..." Such as "they arrived one after the other in succession" Such as the same conclusion, that it was time for Caesar to cease...and why, every year, on or about the 15th, mid-March...they come marching out, as if it was a seeing soothsayer... "Beware, my friend...friends like this...watch your back..."
"Just saying..." A more recent casual construction to make a complaint or criticism seem otherwise, at least less offensive, like when you are otherwise taking a jab, stab, at them...
"Got your back" While traditionally, at least gaining in tradition as a conveyance of reassurance, when accompanied by the winking emoji, may leave you...feeling, a byte dubious, as if over-exposed, vulnerable…
"Beware, take care..." (timely add-vice); At least until we get past the mid-way point of March, which is, in the Shakespearean tradition, known as the Ides of March.
