What common expressions do you hate?

[Cato]

Man up.

Agree, but what of the more insidious 'Cowboy/Cowgirl Up"? Use is typically restricted to upper middle class suburbanites covered head to toe in John Deere paraphernalia or dressed as their favorite western movie star when it's not Halloween. The saying, costumes, and penchant for listening to over marketed shitty pop-country music is all done for the sake of earning superficial 'dirt road' credibility. These assholes have to ask who's singing when a Hank Williams song is played and wouldn't recognize a cow unless it was presented as hamburger or steak.

[Rayaan]

"We have to talk."

[Faith No More]

These are not really expressions as the OP is asking for, but I loathe them enough that I thought they warranted mention.

"I don't hate [insert minority here]. In fact lots of my friends are [insert same minority]."

"I'm not anti-homosexual; I'm pro marriage."

"Have you found Jesus?"

[Napoléon]

People who say this should be shot. For multiple reasons:

"Everything happens for a reason"

[Voltron]

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to...."
Seems like one of those things people say just because its expected in certain situations.

[Cato]

"He/she's in a better place"

The debasement of the word hate to mean anything from mild annoyance to rabid, foaming-at-the-mouth antipathy.

Okay. Maybe I don't hate that. But I do find it mildly annoying.

Yeah, don'tcha just hate that?

[Vincenzo Vinny G.]

I hate it when people say "hits the nail on the head."

What expressions (if any) do you dislike?

Tea, Earl Grey, Hot.

Earl Grey is shitty tea, too.

[Angrboda]

Obviously someone who knows nothing about tea.

Earl Grey tea, sometimes spelled Earl Gray, is a tea blend with a distinctive flavour and aroma derived from the addition of oil extracted from the rind of the bergamot orange, a fragrant citrus fruit.

Traditionally, the term "Earl Grey" has applied only to black teas that contain oil of bergamot as a flavouring.

I'd have to research the matter, but my recollection is that the bulk of commercially marketed Earl Grey is made using Ceylon tea, which is some of the finest in the world.

But then I rather doubt the comment was spurred by anything having to do with Earl Grey tea itself.
