    this. also, when people start out by saying, "not meaning to be rude," or, "not meaning to be racist," and then follow by saying something extremely rude/racist. evidently you were meaning to be, dude.

    i am also not a fan of "chillaxing".

    AND am sick to death of people using the word "keen".

    oh, and also people who put signs on their car that just say "interested [insert phone number here]". yeah, i'm interested. in what though? geez, just put "for sale" and have all the potential miscommunication nipped in the bud.
    if finding love is just a dance, proximity and chance, you will excuse me if i skip the masquerade

    Wow, a lot of you guys would want to lynch me then. I say about 80% of the phrases that you guys posted. >_>

    I mostly just hate phrases that are used to talk down to people. I can't think of any right now (I've been up for only 5 minutes so my brain's kinda fried) but when I think of them I'll put them here.

    Any phrase with double negatives where they didn't actually mean a positive.

    Such as "i aint got no car" when they in fact mean that they haven't got a car.

    And of course "i could care less" when people actually mean to say that they couldn't care less, and variations of that phrase.

    I just hate the way youth talk these days. I'm getting old, the internet has accelerated my bitter old man gene.

    I hate girls who call other girls "Mole". I mean, it's not a phrase, but it drives me insane.

    I hate it when girls my age tend to use the word "like" before everything and...ugh. Just the way teenagers abuse certain phrases annoys me so much. D:

    I use office bulltery phrases constantly here at work and sometimes it makes me want to off myself.

    "Are you for real?!"

    I was friends with a girl that used to say that to me a lot in year 8. I always replied with a "YES I'm for real. Pinch me, I exist." >:[

    Nothing really bothers me nowadays, I suppose. But wait, there's more! For most part I can think of several examples I can use within this post, I think. Just need to think outside of the box because this is not rocket science or whatever.

    Ultimately, one of my most hated phrases ever is "Give me a second." Most certainly I will not give you a second, that's too short for you to do whatever the hell you have to do! Just my two cents.

    Word, I'm out.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.
