Saw this one again in the forum a couple of days ago. prolly What is going on in some ones mind to use a junk word like that.
Maybe I don't technically hate the phrase, but when a guy in the shop picks up a hammer to beat on something (everyone should be wearing safety glasses anyway), they'll say, " watch your eyes!".
Not sure how that's done without a mirror...

When the hell did more than one sign change from signs to signage?
As in, "We have to get the signage up so people will know about the event".

This might possibly be the most sensible ,honest and sincere post I've ever read .Thank you Bk.
"Just sayin'"
Usually follows an insult. Similar to the preface "Don't take this personally, but...."

Alls I know is it's prolly a signage of the times.Just sayin.
or "I dont want to sound ___/be the guy who ___/etc but..."
I finally made it to the end of this thread. So many of these examples irritate me too, even though I'm guilty of uttering several of them. One that I didn't see was using loose in place of lose.
If I loose my beer again I'm going to completely loose it.

"It is what it is". Its such a defeatist attitude and an excuse to not deal with a situation. One of the mansgers where I works utters these worthless pile of words anytime things go wrong.
And
"That'll take a minute" which means its going to take a good bit if time.

"Personally, I...". Yea, no ****.
"That being said, ...".
"utilize." (you mean use?)
Ah, I feel better getting that off my chest.

When people online just say "this" when linking or responding to something...
This... This, what? Cures the common cold? Tastes like chicken? Finish the sentence!
In addition, I despise unfinished words, as in: "that is totes adorbs"...
Also, "irregardless"... And I am just now, as I type this, filled with a small sense of rage that my iPad made NO effort to correct the fact that I just typed the word irregardless... For F's sake, it even tried to autofill it as I typed "irrega"
I'm going to go punch something now.

Boo boo (referring to pooping), and that phrase "for a minute"...
Managementese. You know, words such as 'actualize', 'actionable', 'deliverable', etc.
You'll love this then:

"i'm not saying, i'm just saying..."

Signage: We'll have to get some signage to advertise our event.
When the hell did signs become signage?
Price point: I'm not buying at the price point.
Really? How about, I'm not buying at that price?

That one makes my teeth hurt.
Everyone on every HGTV show uses "price point" instead of just "price", like it makes them seem smarter.
It doesn't...
Cheers!
I have seen signage used in legislation... therefor same thing as Day Tripper said people use it to sound cleverer
I have to use signage in reports as I am referring to signs put up to comply with the legislation signage requirements, but I would never say to someone - hey look at that shop signage over there!

Same here. When I've drafted up "signage plans" in the past, the term wasn't just referring to the signs but also the requirements for where/how to install them.

Seems to be reasonable use of the word.
But, "We need to put up signage" is ridiculous.
Oh well !!!! Whatever !!!! :smack:

"_______justice." As in "social justice, economic justice," etc...
Or "________responsibility" As in "social responsibility."
None of these exist, they're commie buzzwords used by liberals/socialists to describe redistribution of wealth or as an excuse to erode individual rights.

When someone tries to disagree in a wishy-washy way, by saying, "Oh, I don't know about that."
You're right. You don't know about that.
