There's a lady at work that says that all the time. Next time she says it, I'm going to tell her that that phrase has been banished as of 2008.

You know what I hate? When you say "excuse me" to someone (or apologize for anything in general) and they say "You're fine"- that just pisses me off for some reason, and it needs to GO!!!

well, duh!!

Southern women intoning in their horrendous drawls, "You go, girl!"...and it's actually legal grounds for a verdict of innocence in a karaoke bar manslaughter case. North of the Mason-Dixon line, mind you.

"at the end of the day" - heard that one WAY too many times this year

"process improvement" - big deal in my company these days. My thought about that one? - how 'bout you just get off your lazy asses and do the work you're being paid to do, instead of sitting around whining about it all day. Unfortunately I've been charged with managing a 'process improvement' project so I can't really say that to them, much as I'd like to!

X, don't know if you're a man or woman but if you're a woman and look like your avatar. Maybe they're saying "You're FINE".

Off the hook
24/7
Bling

And the thing at work that makes me go completely ape-shit is when someone will stand in the center of the open doorway of my office and say "Knock knock!"

Now I completely understand why weapons aren't allowed to be brought to work.

Dude (when every sentence directed at ANYONE is started with this word, it grates after a while)
You know (every third word)
okay..... (when one should be taking a breath, they pull this out)
blah, blah, blah
like

Don't Taze Me, "Bro"!

"I could be wrong, but what if I'm right?"

I hear "buh bye" about 500 times a day.

LOL! What's the story behind that one?

I've been lobbying to get rid of "24/7" for years. Fucking just STOP that already!!!

I want "son" to go away. People who have to call other people "son". "Let's go, son.."
"Shit, son, that was whack!!"

Oh yeah... and "whack" needs to go too.

How about the phrase, "ya heard??" from a certain people after they make a statement. Some have even perfected this down to maybe one word,..."yheard?"

"legacy sound"

"At the end of the day"
"True dat"

What about - "We truly believe this guy is the real deal"

LOL! No, I'm a guy. You kidding? If I looked like that I'd never leave the house!

"LMAO", "LOL" and every other bit of hideous "TXT SPK". The parasite of online discussion boards and no doubt a fair share of school essays.

"Proactive" -Makes me want to scream everytime I hear it. No one can for a sentence anymore without it! Ugh!

"Reach out" - as in, oh man, I can't even say it...
