ANY expression with the stem "basis" or "situation" in it is usually rubbish.

"We're in a war situation" = "We're at war"
" - " - No-win situation" = "We can't win"

The word I CANNOT STAND is "basically", to such an extent that I've banned my kids from saying it. I can't think of one sentence with it in that needs it.

If someone says "A car is basically a box on 4 wheels" then that's not too bad, but I'm sick of hearing people describe an anecdote, or situation, that takes about 10 minutes, and has every other sentence begin with "Basically". Obviously they've gone WAY past the basics when that much explanation is necessary.
