There are tons of health care terms that people misuse to try to sound more intelligent but makes them sound dumber, like "urosepsis" when the person has a bladder infection. I hate them, too.

That's a good one. Usually it signifies "danger, I'm a cheap ass". Or when it prefaces "lucky to have a job". Annoying.

It's fun to reply with 'in this economy'. Neighbor: It sure is windy today. Me: Very windy, especially in this economy.

I'm using this. Bill me later.
At the end of the day, that goes without saying; especially in this economy.

I hate when people try to sound like they understand grammar ... "Do you want to go to the game with Joe and I?". Stuff like that. Joe and me if you want to be perfect, me and Joe works for me, but Joe and I .... hate it.

"Net net"

"Long story short"

They never net it out and the story is never short.

I hate when someone uses the accent of a words origin when they say it, usually food related. If you say burrito like you're from Mexico City but otherwise sound like a hillbilly....you're a douche.
