I don't say easy peasy, however, I think it is ridiculous that you judge someone's intelligence based on whether or not they use a silly saying. In fact, I think that makes you sound less than intelligent. Well, sometimes the truth hurts.

OK, do this. Go to work. Use it in a meeting with your boss. See how that goes.

Not the poster you quoted but I work in a child development field at Georgetown, I said this to my boss with a Ph.D and she answered with lemon squeezy! I don't think it displays a lack of intelligence but I get that it wouldn't be acceptable in other fields. I am not worried about what people think of me for saying it occasionally, I think there are times when it is appropriate to be silly.

Where the h*ll do you work? I mean, yeah, maybe don't use it while you're giving your closing argument, but only someone with a very, very long stick up their butt would actually care. I'm not implying you have a stick up your butt, but...yes, yes I am.

GIANT EYEROLL (I'm sure you find emoticons juvenile, as well).

I find eyerolling to be puerile anyway.

Serious women do not say "easy peasy" at work.

I am a lawyer at BigLaw. Women (and men) say "easy peasy" all the time here. We're all very serious people.

I'm an academic. I joke around but I don't say whoppsey doopsey. I'm actually quite playful with ideas and language.

And I call bullshit to the PP who claims men and women at her law firm all day EP.
