"Putting all of ours eggs in one basket"
When referring to IT infrastructure, "these" are Eggs. If there is a case for doing anything, there has to be a case to backup "that" and thus you're "eggs" aren't in one basket!

"There are bigger fish to fry"
Um no... that means to stop doing what is important (say backing up your data) and doing something else, when usually the person saying this, has no clue about what is being done by you.

Anchovies? Our food tastes will just never be the same.
Also, I think @DustinB3403 has been listening to you too long as I know you've ranted about most of these.

That is another one that drives me up a wall.
Sorry stuff changes, things improve and the old way has been replaced by the people who MADE IT ORIGINALLY!

"How the sausage gets made"
Do you want to know how the sausage gets made, by following a damn recipe! Process is the key to improvement, follow process!
I worked in a butcher shop and have made sausage. I don't see what is so bad about making sausage. I like sausage over bacon anyday.
