I find it annoying when people say, "Same difference."
That's an oxymoron if there ever was one.

I agree with the first six statements and I would substitute Mark May for Kirk Herbstreit in No. 7.

Not phrases, but here are some words I hate hearing people use:

1. hypothesize
2. irregardless (it's not even a real word)
3. plethora

(And, HMO, I like "behoove," but only in writing, not speech).

+1 on the IGNORANT people who say "irregardless." Really? You have GOT to know that is not a word.

on the other hand, (which is one of my top 5 for annoying phrases), I kind of like the word plethora.

I think irregardless actually one of those nonwords that got added to the dictionary. I think it sounds like someone who doesn't know the difference between regardless and irrespective so they use both of them at the same time.
