"Go as."
It's the time of year when, in referring to Halloween costumes, people say "I'm going to go as Darth Vader" or "I'll go as a Ghostbuster" or "You should go as Donald Trump."
I don't know why it bothers me but it does. Go as? Maybe it's the "go" that bothers me. Go? Go where? Maybe is the imprecision: Dress up as makes more sense. But "go as" just sounds so silly to me.
