Ugh, yeah.  This one is so riduclously off-base and I don't even think the people who use it have any idea what they're saying.

"With that being said" or "with that said". Unnecessary phrases. 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

1) "disappear" them ... as in "we will disappear them." (Newscasts, tv)

 

2) "no worries" grrrr used by those younger than me (sales associates) when I have a problem!!! GRRRR

 

3) "bring" and "take" ... wrong usage "I'm going to BRING this to them."

LOL - just days before I retired one of the nursing supervisors was giving me grief for texting at work, & wouldn't let me tell her I was texting my patient's lab results to the doctor. I said ' OK Whatever" and she screamed at me "DON"T YOU EVER SAY WHATEVER TO ME EVER AGAIN". I turned and looked right at her and said  "Do you realize how inappropriate your behavior is right now?"
