It's that time of year again. What words or phrases would you like to never hear again after 2010 is finished? |

"I can show you how to make money online"... It seems like most of these promises are falsely made by (sometimes desperate) people who have sufficient front (insufficient morals?) to make this rather empty promise. How many of them have successfully done so without involving this promise i.e. selling real products and services rather than replicating pyramid scheme-like promises...? |

Nothing business related but the phrase "is it" - my boyfriend, his mates and even some people I work with at the supermarket (including a manager) stay it! They put it on the end of every sentence and it's so annoying like "I gotta go to town mate" "Oh is it?" It does my head in lol |

1. "24/7" The only trouble with saying 'in the world' is that there is an almost irresistible temptation to say it with the Jeremy Clarkson inflection, which rapidly becomes equally annoying! |

Let's stop "ticking all the boxes". Ticking boxes is a defence mechanism for those who are too timid to take responsibility for making their own decisions. |

"Bear with me" (cue tinny music and no idea when the person will return to the phone) and "With respect" - yeah .... right! and "Yeah - right" and unwanted cold canvas calls that begin with "How are you today?"
