Everyone says, but very few actually do.
It's basically a polite way of telling someone that what they're going through sucks but it's not your problem
Now, if you ACTUALLY keep the person in your thoughts and prayers, AND make at least some effort to help them, then you're using this phrase with meaning. But most people use this phrase to politely say they don't give a damn about what you're going through.
The Correct Usage:
Jake: My Mom died.
Dan: Thoughts and Prayers for you guys
Jake: Dude is that really all you can give me?
Dan: No, I actually mean it, we can talk about it whenever you want and I'm always here for you. I had something similar happen a while ago.
Wrong Usage
Jake: My Mom Died
Dan: Thoughts and Prayers
Jake: Is that all you've got to help?
Dan: Yeah, I'm going through some tough crap too, my Instagram account got locked

The Minecraft song that, for some reason, gives me an incredible feeling of Nostalgia to the âbefore timeâ, AKA, the time before 2020 and everything going stupidly wrong. I remember the days when I could actually enjoy a normal life. How I wish I enjoyed it more. Now we got this shit. Fuck 2020.
Mice on Venus is by far my favorite Minecraft song.

The year I optimistically hope will end the shit show that we've had since 9/11. The most toxic generation of kids is graduating high school in 2020, so it should be getting better. I hope 2021 will start off a generation of peace and prosperity that future generations will cherish, just like us millennials cherish the 90's.
2021 will be a new start hopefully.

2020 2.0 except things (FOR NOW) have been getting gradually better instead of worse. COVID-19 infections are down 80%, the civil unrest in our cities has seemed to calm down a bit, and the second wave of lockdowns is ending in most states. By the summer, it will most likely be safe to have large gatherings again, and I think COVID-19 will be calmed down by the fall, barring maybe a small resurgence because of new variants.
2021 is a transitional year. It is transitioning us from the brutal 2020 to the (hopefully) better 2022. But there was to be a smooth transition, so it's 2021.
Period of your life when youâre aged 4 to 12. Something precious. You only get it once. Itâs the best time of your life, but you donât realize that until itâs over. You have almost no worries or responsibilities. The world goes easy on you. Most kids want to grow up because theyâre naive and think that adulthood is a good thing.
Your childhood slips away, fast. Itâs not a specific moment, but rather a gradual process lasting about 3-6 months. This happens around age 13 when your voice deepens and your nuts get bigger. This is the point you start realizing that being a teenager isnât so great after all. But by that point, of course, itâs too late. Because congratulations, your childhood is gone for good and itâs never coming back. The closest thing youâll get to childhood is watching your own kids grow up. Youâll tell them to enjoy it while they can but theyâll ignore that advice just like you ignored it from your parents. And then the cycle goes on.
Damn I wish I could get my childhood back, itâs so precious.

Intentional arson to one's own business or home in hopes of receiving insurance money for the damage. Usually done to a home or business that you are having no success selling and are just really desperate to retrieve home equity from. The practice can be prosecuted under numerous felonies, but rarely is, because it's very hard to prove you intentionally set fire to a building. Often times, some idiots pour gasoline all over their building in hopes of it burning faster, but that's the most common way people get caught for it. As soon as the cops and the fire department smell gasoline and see it everywhere, you're getting arrested for arson and attempted insurance fraud, and you won't get a penny from insurance.
The term is in reference to the fact that, prior to WW2, most Jewish businesses in Europe were boycotted, so they went out of business. Because they were out of business, and no one wanted to buy a Jewish business, the businesses and buildings were essentially worthless because no one would buy them. But because, on paper, the business and its building still had value, Jews would often intentionally set fire to their own businesses in hopes of getting insurance money from it, because that was the only practical way they could take back the equity value of their business.
Bob's convenience store went out of business, and then coincidentally burned down after he failed to sell it. He got a million dollars of insurance money.
Bob also wanted to move after this, but since his home wouldn't sell, he set fire to it to get insurance money. This time, however, Bob was impatient, so he poured gasoline all over his house. This was a bad decision, because as soon as the fire department and the cops got there, the smelled the Gasoline and knew it was Jewish lightning. He got arrested and convicted of arson and attempted insurance fraud and got sentenced to 5 years in prison. He also got no insurance money.
