The worst phrase/saying?

[MissCommando]

I think it's got to be "I love x more than life itself". I always cringe when I hear this, who actually loves life itself? What a load of old tripe.

What gets your vote?

To deviate slightly, I worked with a bloke who mixed metaphors such as :-
I'll have you upstairs like a ton of bricks.
This a double-barrelled sword.
It's dog eat dog and vice versa.

[silliemillie]

Getting sick of seeing 'Keep Calm and Carry On' on just about everything.

[methyl]

"Changeable" weather

[weecalf]

shortening television programmes names to" Deal "really deal or no deal and "Strictly"Strictly come dancing by presenters of the said programmes

"I'm not a ...(fill in the blanks)...but!"

[Saki]

bigbadmarty, I used to know someone who was always saying "At the end of the day". His nickname was Midnight! (True)

[Flyhalf]

"Whatever"
And not exactly a phrase, but people making quotation marks with their fingers.

[bravejordy]

I hate when the Government make up a new word and think it sounds cool, like when the London riots were in full swing they started using the word "Criminality"... What's wrong with good old fashioned "criminal behaviour"?

[Saki]

Jog on.

[starone]

"Cannot suffer fools gladly" - useless and senseless.

[starone]

I also hate it when someone says 'methinks' instead of I think. But I expect I have many phrases and words that irritate other people, so why should I criticise.

[Brinjal]

State of the art.
