Overused phrases

If I don't hear "hunker down" one more time, I'll shed no tears. It makes my skin crawl. I guess if you're in a foxhole, it makes sense.

"That being said" or "with that said"- sentences absolutely don't need those added to it. You've already said what you wanted to say. You don't need to add those.

"Spot on"- for some unknown reason, I really don't like this one.

"it's all good"- no, sometimes it really isn't.

It's all good......a neighbor once said this about her mother's death. Really????

"The American people want ... ." No one knows what every American citizen wants, and I doubt there is a single issue where every one of us wants the same thing. I'd prefer the more honest "I want ... ."

"Feels like buttah."

Don' know why, but this raises my hackles every time I hear or read it.

I hear lots of repeated phrases, but then just what words would I choose to describe selling white linens as there's only so many catch words to use. LOL. So, the crisp, white, soft, durable would still attract me. Same goes for other items that best describe the feel, look and so on. Just glad I'm not selling items on TV as I'd run out of descriptive words or phrases.

These two make me cringe every time I hear them. I don't know how they became so popular, but I wish people would stop saying them. I hear them at work and on tv shows and movies all the time. It's like nails on a chalkboard for me.
