Using "like" to start a sentence - as in "Like I'm totally cool with it". Actually that whole sentence irritates me.
What drives me nuts is when people actually say the abreviation. So someone actually says 'OMG' or 'LOL'. And its not just kids. We were in a meeting when a women actually used OMG to star a sentence. I lol'd and then othe people lol'd, then the women was embarrassed, she wasnt really youn either, probably 30ish.
"Like a banana-powered dump truck" - What does this even mean?! What a stupid simile.
"Smells like a clown's shoehorn" - Yeah, I get it. Clowns have big shoes. But what's with the shoehorn?
"Flying fists of Beelzebub" - Get your religion out of my classroom, chubby!
"Rented like a prep school gymnasium" - I don't understand this phrase and never will. Why a prep school? Why the gymnasium, exactly? What a dumb phrase.
"Broccoli" - Don't like the veggie; hate the word.
"Feast on my bulbous gonads" - How about you go see a doctor instead, weirdo?
I have literally never heard any of those except broccoli...

I’m always amazed these sportscasters and announcers can call the game with McDavid’s **** in their mouths all the time.
Girls calling a guy "unreal" or "beauty" in a sports context. There are few words that make you look less attractive than those two.
Ending a sentence with ", you guys."

After watching the draft and reading the twitter comments on the ticker thing, I am really sick of people who say "classic" after everything, especially where it does't make sense.
"Jordan Staal traded to Carolina - classic!"
"I hope we draft Teuvo! Classic!"
"Forsberg is slipping a little. Classic!"
Was that word recently overused used in one of those teenager movies or something?

I'll add "blood lines". Its one of the stupider things to focus on IMO. Its a great story for the broadcasters and all, but virtually meaningless for the actual hockey players talents and skills.
Nothing is amazing anymore because everything is amazing.

"I'm not a racist, but..."
"I don't want to sound harsh, but...."
Whenever someone leads into a statement with one of these prhases you can rest assured that they ARE racist and DO want to sound harsh.
There is one exception to this kind of phrase which can stay...demonstrated below because of its intrinisic comedic value.
