My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
Oxford U (UK) published a list of ten irritating phrases. I can think of a few more ...
Oxford List:
1 - At the end of the day
2 - Fairly unique
3 - I personally
4 - At this moment in time
5 - With all due respect
6 - Absolutely
7 - It's a nightmare
8 - Shouldn't of
9 - 24/7
10 - It's not rocket science
My List:
No problem (as a reply to "thank you")
OK, so, like, I was out ...
Having said that or That being said, ...
Push the envelope
Wait, let me read some more posts

But be aware that, with all due respect, it's a nightmare to read all those fairly unique posts.
Having said that I have to admitt I personally read them all...
And at the end of the day I allways find out there's no rocket science here...

I absolutely agree with Iceman 24/7. These phrases are fairly unique at this moment in time!
