    Iconic

    I can't look at the internet one damn day without this overused word getting thrown around.

    I don't think these really count but I HATE when people pronounce espresso as "expresso" and chipotle as "chipoltay"

    Some peeps I know use "in love" instead of "in law" so they'd say "My son-in-love" instead of my "Son-in-law." Irritates me to no end.

    I hate seeing local advertising still trying to use their own version of the "got milk?" ad campaign... "got lawn maintenance needs?" "got real estate?" ugh.

    When people say "butt naked" instead of "buck naked." (I know that there is debate as to whether "butt" is correct or not...but it still annoys me.)

    "No offence, but..." (Offence definitely intended)

    Any internet links that start with a phrase similar to this "He took an ordinary potato chip, and you won't BELIEVE what happened next...." I refuse to click them.

    "You don't want to do that" in response to telling someone I'm going to do/buy something.

    If I didn't want to do it, I wouldn't be saying I was going to.

    "Minute"

    How is it that people use this word to represent minutes, hours, days or even weeks?

    Meaning politically correct. Don't want it, don't need it. My world was fine until people trying to make it better made it worse.

    "It's all good"
    Clearly it's not or we wouldn't have had to have the entire conversation that led up to "It's all good"!!
