Shit that boils your piss

[Emperor Fabulous]

I used to chuckle when watching The Apprentice and the goons would out-do each other in the 'over 100%' factor. "I always give 110%".... "and I always give 120%". etc.

This may have been said before (I can't be arsed trawling through 33 pages to find out) but people being told they have - and also themselves saying that they have - given it "110%" boils my piss bone dry.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO GIVE 110% YOU FUCKWITS.

Not by comparison. Pretty much everything I do is at 80% compared to everyone else, which means that by comparison they're giving it 125%.

You sort of can, if you've given 10% more effort than you have done previously, and you thought that that previous effort was all that you could give. It's figurative rather than an actual statistical analysis of effort made, no?
