    My absolute favourite has to be when we attend training sessions, you can guarantee the following phrase comes up at some point "Come on guys, let's all work together, because there's No 'I' in TEAM, we're one unit" [there is one in TWIT though].

    And as someone else said 'there is one in nit, though'.

    The one that really irritates me is (and nearly always on Jeremy Kyle) is: """At the end of the day"""................ oh and another one is: "I'm a 110% sure"
    grrrr!!!!... oh you have me started now...

    ..... basically, :)
    Get it off your chest.

    At the doctor's surgery instead booking in with the receptionist there is a touch screen which says 'Arrive yourself'..

    It's nearly always broken, though.

    I hate when people say they have done something "lastminute.com" It's just stupid!
    that and if they're 'confused.com'.

    People who claim to be 'chillaxing' should be taken out and shot, along with anyone (and I mean anyone) over the age of 15 who continues to use text language.
    The use of 'woteva' by either of my kids is immediately punishable with a week's x-box ban and a mental note for me to use the term 'chillax' in the most embarrassing manner possible.
