The most irritating phrase in the...
...well, it has to be the English language. What other language are we talking about?
Anyway, if you say "At the end of the day" to me don't be surprised if I go berserk on you.

For those who during arguments employ "All I know is.....", I am willing to assume that true.

In that same vein would be the statement which follows a denial of the intent of the statement.
"I don't want to hurt your feelings, but...."
or
"Not to criticize, but...."
or
"I don't really care, but...."

"To tell you the truth..." (Because you usually lie?)

"We need to talk . . . "
Doesn't matter what the context is, that phrase drives me wild. Instead of deliberately setting up the other person with tension and anxiety, why not just start saying what you have to say?!

When it's all said and done, when the smoke has cleared, when the fat lady has sung, when it's all over but the shouting, the water is gone from the tub and the bell has sounded midnight, it ain't over 'til it's over. |
