Annoying phrases.

Annoying phrases: We hear and see them every day, these are some of my pet peeves. Please post yours.

"Do you know what I mean?"
"I am about ready to pull the trigger on -----------"
"I just pulled the trigger and bought ----------------"

"I don't mean to offend, but ---------------"
"I don't mean to interrupt"
Answer to both of these "Then don't"

Guess what?

Do you know What?

Yes, I know What: lives three houses down from me, is married to Who, and has two kids - I-don't-know and I-don't-care. I've known them for about 25 years.

Ditto on that one. I hear it all the time at work from people that have not done a darn thing except cover their own tail.

"irregardless of"
I had a college professor that would go into a full blown fit whenever he heard someone use that one.

No, you listen. Very condescending but yet you hear it all the time, especially on tv.

With all due respect .... ( usually followed by a disrespectful observation)
"You know?"
"Well ah, you know?"
"Like, well ah, you know?"
"We've always done it this way."

"If you will"

People say something, then say, "if you will".
