"Unpack" oh my gosh how many times a week do I hear this...shopping channels, political tv shows, even my pastor is saying it.

The phrase I hear all the time these days is:  "That having been said......."

 

So overused.

I don't think this word has been overused but I think it's hilarious when selling boots they refer to a woman's thick or heavier calf as "healthier".  I know they're trying to be kind but come on....healthier?
