Cliche is something that has been repeatdly used to the point of losing original meaning. The word "cliche" comes from the days of moveable type, where each letter had to be set by hand into a framework before printing.

Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love with girl. Boy loses girl. Boy gets girl back. The End.






A penny saved is a penny earned.






There's plenty more fish in the sea.
