Kind of off the subject but I wish that phrase could be banned. Not picking on you, it's just a pet peeve that is way past its fresh date. It's nothing more than a tautology but people use it like it actually explains something.

It is what it is. It was what it was. It will be what it will be. Is is is. Arrgghh!

>One more thing. I'm not sure I agree with the ban, but it is what it is.
