I've always hated "my bad" and "whatever."

"Think of the children" gets old as an excuse to go off the deep end with rules and regulations.

"don't mind me"

i wasn't, until you opened your pie hole.

"Pie hole." I'm thinking of launching a campaign to change it to "cake maw" or "taco dumpster" or "inbox."

If you don't like my suggestions, I don't care, just shut your goddamn cake maw, k?

Oh and EVERYONE says "touch base".
"What's in the pipeline?"
"That wasn't really a woman."
"A lot on your plate."
"Knock on wood."

And nearly any motivational business-speak.

I've known people who'll say that "knock on wood" thing, and then go several feet out of their way to find some wooden object. Yes, go on and do that. I'm sure it'll actually have some profound effect on the rest of the Universe.

A lot of guys knock on their wood.

Although it looks more like they are tugging than knocking.

"Results based."

Really? Who the fuck isn't?
Quite a few people and professions, actually. Not to name any.

My peeve is "going forward." If you watch or listed to any financial porn, it gets used at least every 10 minutes or less.

i find its most often used as a "nice" way of saying "youve/weve been doing shit completely wrong up until now, how about in the future you/we do it correctly instead?"

financial porn? why is my job bereft of this benefit?

"Douche"
"Douche Bag"
any other use of the word Douche

I will admit, I was a Douche who use to call other people Douche Bags several years ago, but the Douchery sure got old fast, yet people still continue to be Douches and use the word "Douche" to try to insult people, but they only make themselves look like a Douche Bag.

New favorite phrase for 5 minutes - "Shut your damn taco dumpster!"
