Irritating Cliches

The Plain English Campaign conducted a poll of the most annoying cliches in the English language. Here are their most annoying four:

1. At the end of the day
2. At this moment in time
3. like
4. With all due respect

I'm guilty of using the fourth one, but I'm proud to claim I don't use the first three. At least not at this moment in time. Besides, at the end of the day it's still...like...English, right?
