Good day, Mr. Catch-Phrase. I invite you to leave.

It’s all good.

Back in the day…

Sucks to be you.

…the heavy lifting.

Awww…I feel incredibly pathetic considering I have heard those from my friends in the last week

Is that your final answer?

'Wazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzap?"

There are no words in the English language to describe how much I completely hate that word and the commercial as well. Ick. And I am defiantly with you Slithy Tove on those phrases too.

You guys just need to touch base more often and think outside of the box.

(During a telephone conference call) Can you take this matter offline?

We massaged the data a little bit.

“I’m all about…”
“Two words [or three or four or whatever]: blah blah.” There’s no need to introduce how many words you’re about to say.
“It’s a _____ thing.” [optional add-on: “you wouldn’t understand.”]

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Slithey Tove, you know that saying things like that makes the Baby Jesus cry.

3: Hi, Op…oh, never mind.

Not really a catch phrase but, I would like get through a day without hearing the word literally.

I demand a recount!

[sub]That was actually painful to say. Erm, type.[/sub]

“blow up my spot” - I was behind the times with this one. Only heard it two months ago, and when I asked my 20 y.o. friend if he’d heard of it, he looked at me like I just crawled out from a proverbial rock and said, “Uhh, yeah…”

“differently-abled” - just plain dumb overcompensating

All your base are belong to us!

uhm…
[noticing glares and bloodthirsty stares]
[sub]backs away slowly, hands upraised…[/sub]

…vote her off the island
…you are the weakest link
…that’s a Good/Bad Thing
…work smarter, not harder
…parallel process
…going postal

“Leverage” used as a verb. For example, “leveraging the synergy across all available paradigms”. (This was a phrase used in a marketing campaign by a previous employer of mine: to this day I have no idea what it means.)

“… be proactive.”

… and not in a good way.

“… be proactive.”

What, already been done?

Oops, sorry.

My bad

I must really be behind the times, Cosmopolitan (or maybe I’m in the wrong area, or something). I never heard “blow up my spot” until…well, until I just read it from you 30 seconds ago. Uh, what does it mean?

Only about half of the above have reached the UK.
I look forward (gloomily) to the rest of them.

On a related note, I still remember my disbelief when ‘diss’ appeared in the Dictionary.

Have a nice day!

Don’t go there…
