The top ten most irritating phrases according to Oxford:
1 - At the end of the day
2 - Fairly unique
3 - I personally
4 - At this moment in time
5 - With all due respect
6 - Absolutely
7 - It’s a nightmare
8 - Shouldn’t of
9 - 24/7
10 - It’s not rocket science
This appears to be from the UK, but what phrases irritate you, where you live?
I have a few that I can think of:
“the fact of the matter is…”
“think outside the box”
“the disconnect is..”
“(whatever)-gate”
“going green”
“From the get-go”
“Touch base”
And I keep getting spam emails wanting to know about my Las Vegas resumes. What’s up with that?
