Irritating Cliches

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?
