Are there any modern day phrases that just get on your tits?

My current nerve wrackers are “bro” used every other word, and at the opposite end of the scale, “super” which, for some inexplicable reason, has me rolling my eyes so hard I can see my own brain.

One for the geeks maybe, though it's a bit like 'literally'...

..Since Covid people use 'exponentially' to sound cleverer, when they just mean 'a lot'.

Another business-speak annoyance creeping in is 'reaching out', e.g. as in 'we're just reaching out to you to let you know about some exviting changes to our service, bla bla'. Stop trying to make something boring all touchy-feely!

Americanisms:

Gonna. I wonder how many users of this word are called Donna?

Gotten. Unnecessary lengthening of a perfectly adequate English word.

I wonder why those who are partial to saying 'sat' and 'stood', incorrectly, don't lengthen them to 'satten' and 'stooden'?

Laugh out loud

When did we need to start saying we are laughing out loud? We used “laugh”, and “had a laugh to myself” - if we laughed, it was out loud, by definition!

No one says “that made me scream out loud”. A laugh is a noise, so therefore……is out loud.

Thank you

'Enjoy' when used in a restaurant. Try completing the phrase, 'enjoy it' or 'enjoy your meal'.

'Kind regards' on emails. Bogoff, i just use 'regards', those who add the 'kind' don't necessarily mean it.

IMHO - usually used by someone who is not very 'humble'

I wonder if prolific 'similards (those who keep saying 'like')' ever pause to think just how often they say it? Per utterance, per phrase, per sentence, per minute, per hour, per day.. (ad nauseam).

Surely if they did, they might realise how rdiculously moronic they sound?

Using "I mean..." before saying something which presumably you otherwise wouldn't mean.

And why is everything effing "stunning", there would be collapsed people everywhere if it were true.

These are just my latest ones.

"“Do you know what I mean”"

Usually said after the most bleeding obvious statement.

Another, "for me personally" starting a sentence in a response to a question such as "what do you think Dick [or whoever]?"

Oh, there are so many modern phrases I abide, such as “Wall of water”, or “perfect storm”.

More recently though are news articles using the word “slammed” in the title.As in

“Politicians slammed for thing they said”

They were not slammed. They may have been questioned ridiculed for it, but not actually slammed.
