I once held that term against a nurse practitioner for years; the first words she ever said to me when she walked in the room (and we had never met) was "So. What is it? You just can't cope?" YIKES
I hate that phrase, "It is what it is!" Have heard this incessantly at my job, since it's the byword our principal uses constantly. It means NOTHING!
Thanks for this!
