Jacob Bews asked Gretchen Felker-Martin:

What is a word or phrase that you hate to see repeated in prose? either bc it's a cliché, or simply irritating?

Gretchen Felker-Martin Well I detest "quips" in general, but the one that really killed me every time I saw it was when Robert Jordan would describe a woman as "plumply pretty".
