    That phrase doesn’t bother me, but I can understand the sentiment. People tend to use the same “clever” phrases over and over, and when there is a phrase you don’t particularly like, you end up hating it after the 100th time.

    In my case, it’s “looking at you, X” where X is not a person. E.g. “I’m looking at you, Unity framework!”

    Or whenever there is a post about a wholesome prank, someone will always comment “See? This is a good prank. Nobody got hurt, everyone laughs.” At this point, I’m inclined to think that people deliberately do it as a version of “First post!!”
