Everybody should stop saying these things:

“Fusstrated” - I get frustrated when I hear people say “fusstrated”.

“Walk and chew gum at the same time” - overused, also what is so hard about that?

"sufferin' succotash"

Almost everyone corrupts “within the hour.” It does NOT mean “within AN hour.” It means “within the current hour;” so, if said at 9:15, it means “this will happen by 10 o’clock,” because THE HOUR is 9 o’clock. I guess people think using the incorrect phrase makes them sound more educated, whereas it actually does not.

More:

'There's lots to unpack here'

'5am (for instance) in the morning'. As opposed to what, the other 5am? Just say '5am', or '5 in the morning'.

'irregardless'

A word can be a noun. A word can be a verb. A word cannot be both. “Parent” is a noun. A person can BE “a parent,” with “be” ref verb portion of the idea. The nonword “parenting” is illiterate, yet we hear it every day. If you are a good parent, you will not teach your family to be illiterate. “Mothering” is also illiterate. One cannot “to mother.” A woman can BE (as in “to be”) a mother. The same paradigm applies to fathers. What one CAN do is “to NUTURE” your child, as in “nurturing your son,” but it takes a tiny bit if education and giving a damn about clear communication that get there, and most people can’t be bothered, which is why their progeny turn out the way they do, passing the carelessness on. Thank you.

"Slammed" or "Slams"

Nobody actually says it, but it seems to be irresistible click bait.

Such and such a celebrity "SLAMS" another.

I see it everywhere, even respectable news organizations have a lead with this.

I'm thinking "Are you in high school?"..what professional uses this?
