I instantly thought "like", but that, like, wasn't even, like, a contender.
"It is what it is" was in there, but didn't make it. Whatever.

I love it when a customer, sitting in a climate controlled office, tells me that they are "...just trying to keep cool" or "...just trying to stay warm" when I'm either dripping sweat on their desk or bundled up like an Eskimo. | |

I"m annoyed when you ask a clerk or sales person for help. After you say thank you and they say " No problem " What ever happed to " your welcome " No Problem ? Dah. Its your job. It shouldn't be a problem.
Another one I can't stand is. "With that said " | |
