11 got a bit crotchety by the end of his run. Speaks well of both the writing and Matt Smith's ability to portray an old man trapped in a young body.
It is what it is, is a way to stop discussing alternate realities and start processing this one.
“If only the doctor had done X and then Cara would still have her left arm and …”
“It is what it is. Now it’s time to start looking at prosthetics and helping her cope with the loss”
The phrase “thought terminating cliche” is itself a thought terminating cliche.
