    My GIL says to my kids all the time
    "Too bad, so sad"

    Then my daughter runs around saying it.

    I HATE it!

    "Long story short...."

    "yadda, yadda, yadda" or "blah, blah, blah"

    Then there is my least favorite saying of all time:

    BLESS YOUR HEART

    I hate it because 90% of the time, someone is trying to talk down to me. Never bless me unless I've sneezed.

    I'm a chef, so I'm especially annoyed by the phrase "cooked to perfection"... because why would you bother if you're going to cook it half-assed?

    Because I'm hungry! I cook things half-assed almost every time I make dinner. I cook it just enough to be safe to eat, but not necessarily to perfection.

    I absolutely LOATHE when people write an email to multiple people and start it off by saying "Hey All" or "All".
    I effing HATE that! My name is not All! If you're writing to multiple people, just use a generic saying like "Hello", "Hi", Good Morning/Afternoon" etc.
    How friggin' hard is that??!!

    Also, I hate, hate, HATE, when people say sorry to someone after a loved one passes away.
    Why are you sorry? Is it your fault they died?
    This was said to me so many times after my dad passed away, I wanted to vomit every time I heard it.

    XXX # of pounds gone forever!!! I really HATE hearing that saying, because I know how easy it is to gain it back with the least bit of stress. I've seen too many people say that exact phrase and gain back everything they lost. I might be the only one this bothers, but it honestly does irk me.

    I think it's "sorry" as in I feel for you, not "sorry" as in a I apologize...I suppose

    I think many of us are guilty of at least one thing on this thread. :)

    "Everything happens for a reason." As an atheist, this one really gets to me. I also loathe when people say "I could care less" rather than "I couldn't care less." It's like they aren't even thinking about what they are saying.

    "Back in the day . . ." in my history class. When was "the day" exactly? Was there just one other day? And everything happened on it?

    "I'll pray for you" is my number one most hated phrase. Even though I don't believe in god I don't mind when people say it in a nice way. Okay, I don't like it, it makes me feel awkward, but I can accept it. However, the number of times I have had this aimed at me along with "CPS should take away your children" or "You're going to hell" just because I have tattoos and purple hair makes me want to vomit every time I hear it.
