OMG, how did I forget about "I could care less"?!
For those that don't understand why this is cringe-worthy (I'm SURE there must be some of you out there who are wondering "what's wrong with that?")
When people say this they almost always mean the exact opposite! This phrase is used to imply "I don't care at all"
When I talk to other grammar nerds I like to say "I could care more... a LOT more"
@juliemouse83 - I love that post and I could care less about reading more of your cringe worthy sayings.1 -
When someone says, "I didn't hear a word you said!"
Really? How do you know I said something then?2 -

It's possible to hear sound without making sense of it.

There have been times where I suddenly realize my office mate has been talking to me the whole time when I thought he was on the phone or something so I tuned him out.
I understand both of these situations and that is acceptable, but what really makes me angry is when they say that and then just walk off, because evidently they really didn't care what I was saying. My husband does all that the time and I just want to slap him!0 -

Agreed-I hate this. Bad is an adjective, not a noun. I look at my kid & say, "My bad what?"
Language evolves, so it might be only a matter of time before it's recognized as a noun.
Your kids could very well be linguistic pioneers.1 -

I find it entertaining how different people pronounce the word 'literally'0 -

"It is what it is."
I use it all the time though, because, it is what it is, man.2 -

I use that one too. More like an agree to just disagree or what's left to say on the matter? So, it is what it is.2 -

Sometimes I can hear that someone is speaking but I am absolutely not paying attention to them so I have no idea what they've just said
Perfectly describes most of the conversations my wife and I have.

I literally use the word literally at least a hundred times a day and can’t force myself to care about who doesn’t like it. Literally.
