Adding "up" . 

[Mumof2]

At the end of the day......  Used way, way, too much.

It is so surreal.  How can so many things be surreal???  It isn't surreal if that phrase is used so often.  LOL!

Over use of the word "need".

Way back when I first started looking at shopper networks, the hosts in the Q all used the word "phenomenal" to describe anything and everything. I got to the point where I was counting how many times in a show it was used, and how inappropriate it was in context. Now it's the word "fabrication" when they mean "fabric." I don't watch the Q much, but any time I see a fashion presentation, that word is inevitably used. It bugs me, but not enough to do anything about it, like turn off the TV. The one word that is used quite often on regular TV, and unfortunately by those who should know better, is the pronunciation of the word NUCLEAR. Just two days ago, I even heard the DNI refer to it multiple times as Nu Cu Lar. It makes me hair stand on ends.

The double “is.”  Used by commentators or pundits. I’ve heard regular people say it too.  I can’t think of examples. You’ll know it when you hear it.

The thing is is that there were no eyewitnesses, so the bribe can't be substantiated ... 

How's that, esme?

If I never hear “IT’S AMAZING!” again it will be fine with me.

@RainCityWoman  You’re right! LOL!  Nuclear pronuouced Nu Cu Lar or Nu Cu Ler is the worst. A former President used to pronounce it that way and it would make me cringe.

I dislike starting a sentence with . . . “So,”

Have a good one.
