Do you have a word or phrase that just drives you crazy when you here it?

Mine is "It is what it is". I HATE this phrase. I think it makes the person saying it look like an idiot.

    On tv and radio news: "But first . . ."

    Translation: "We know you're really interested in that story we keep teasing you with, but we're gonna string you along with this other story first."

    "Most definitely..."
    "Awkward..."

    This ^^^ and "irregardless." That's NOT a word!!! I also agree with "just sayin'." Of course, you're just sayin', YOU JUST SAID IT!

    Use of OMG

    ....

    "Irregardless"

    "It is what it is"

    "Just saying"

    I especially hate it when any body prefaces a statement by saying " I don't mean to sound rude but" or "I don't mean to be mean but"

    Then don't say it. You are being a douche, by saying you are not trying to be a douche does in no way remove you from the fact that you are in fact a wet douche.

    "you know". get sick of it.
    If you want to try and lose some weight, you know, try out this site called my fitness pal. Its, you know, incredible.

    Then it gets dressed up with - "Its like, you know"

    I knew before reading that this phrase would make it, I don't consider myself an idiot BUT I used this phrase earlier today in an e-mail & probably use it more regular than I realise.

    Anything referring to someone's "Psyche". As in, that's not good for my psyche or I can't deal with XYZ because it messes up my psyche. I don't even know WTH a psyche is and I'm not going to research it. I can't risk it. It might be contagious.
