One of mine is when people say change up. Redundant! Change is change.

    I hate "shut the front door" and other euphemisms for the f-word, like "fudge."

    I hate: "how cool is that?"

    Uh, I don't know, how cool is it, actually?

    On reality competition shows when a contestant tells the camera, "I just need to step it up." Sure, they need to do better, but they've probably been trying their hardest up until now--"step it up" isn't a very specific strategy.

    Anything that is redundant....e.g. 'revert back', 'progress forward'....etc.

    When people say "could care less" instead of "couldn't care less".

    "Yummo" It just really gets to me. Probably because I watched way too much of the food network at one time and Rachael Ray was on about 10 times a day. I really developed a dislike for her voice.

    When an interviewer asks someone a question and the person's answer begins with "well, I mean....". This should only be used if you've already given an answer and it wasn't understood.
    Drives me nuts!

    This^^
    When people say "smile" when not taking a picture, super annoying. What do I look like, your personal wind up doll?

    "Same difference."

    One literally cancels out the other. It cannot be the same if there is a difference.
