Also it is slang. Which, I think, make it not pertinent to the argument. It certainly doesn't debunk milo's claim. Most slang terms are cliche. And most slang terms are (ready for it?) figurative.
It is clear that there is some basic misunderstanding about the definition of the terms "clche" and "subjective" which is clouding the discussion.
