Researchers at Oxford University compiled a Top Ten list of most irritating expressions. Yes folks, these people actually get paid to do this. Heading the list was "at the end of the day", followed in second place by the phrase "fairly unique", while the tautological statement "I personally" made third. Also in the list was the grammatically incorrect "shouldn't of", in place of "shouldn't have".
- At the end of the day
- Fairly unique
- I personally
- At this moment in time
- With all due respect
- Absolutely
- It's a nightmare
- Shouldn't of
- 24/7
- It's not rocket science
Which of these expressions do you say often? What other phrases annoy you? Do you agree with the list?
