Well I'm just speaking from personal experience, but I know for a fact the people I've heard saying it repeatedly are completely unaccepting of things outside the "norm", and it makes me rage that they're such hypocritical assholes.

I'd rather think outside the bun and get some taco bell. :3

I agree, that is overused. I've never thought about it as open-minded though, it's always been a business phrase to me with someone trying to be creative for marketing or whatever. I think it's interesting that you point that out! I think the next time someone who isn't open minded says that and I get annoyed, I'm blaming you. :P

feel free to blame me :) People at work say it all the time in a "business sense", but the reason why it makes me rage is because they are bigots and close-minded and totally unaccepting of people who aren't "normal". You can't use that phrase if you're a bigot - it's so fucking hypocritical that it makes me insane

I agree, that really is hypocritical. :\

Thanks for posting that. I've got a whole new view on that already irritating phrase, lol. :)
