A good {{tag|metaphor}} for bad legal writing: it does no harm, but no good either<ref>which is a {{tag|paradox}} itself, for words that do no harm but do no good get in the way, which is ''in itself'' harmful.</ref>. If you go to the store, [[celery]] is on your list, and they have none, it is not something you feel the need to [[I'm not going to die in a ditch about it|die in a ditch about]]. In a way “cabbage” is a better term, because it has worse connotations, but dammit the JC ''likes'' cabbage. Fried in olive oil with carraway seeds, it goes well with bangers and mash. | A good {{tag|metaphor}} for bad legal writing: it does no harm, but no good either<ref>which is a {{tag|paradox}} itself, for words that do no harm but do no good get in the way, which is ''in itself'' harmful.</ref>.
