One that comes to mind for me: “Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is not always true. Maybe even only half the time! Are there any phrases you tend to hear and shake your head at?

    That was exactly how adults used the phrase a lot for me as a kid, which made me never use it myself, ever.
