Default What words and phrases do you think are overused/overrated...

..what 'buzz' words and phrases do you hate and get fed up of hearing/find irritating..either on the internet in general or in real life...?..

A pretty new one we seem to hear all the time is " Im not going to lie" That one annoys me. I myself have a habit of saying "Do you know what I mean?" when people clearly do lol A friend of mine says "Im not been funny" all the time when its obvious their not being funny. Another one is "No offence" when there most definitely is offence to be taken.

I can't watch/listen to football players interviews because they are so predictable with the same phrases and words littered with 'ya know' every second word.

'Yeh I'm happy to get the goal but it's all about the 3 points'
'All credit to them'
'We had to dig in'
'Massive club'
Blah blah blah

I definitely think that "no thanks, I'm not interested" is overused.
