One's I hate from work over here are "It's all good" and "It is what it is" used in almost every situation.

Do people say those phrases to you often? How odd.

Default Re: Annoying Phrases

Trying to end a phone conversation with "I'd better let you go"
Misuse of "hopefully" - used instead of "I hope"
"Irregardless" - no such word
"My bad" - instead of "my fault"
Even news announcers using the words "mischievIous" instead of "mischievous" and "Febuary" stead of "FebRuary"
ArrrrrrrrrH!
