Here's another hardy perennial hot off the press at Oxford University. This time a list of annoying phrases used in everyday speech and the workplace.  A lot of them probably crop up in marketing conversations too, although expect 'conversations' in this context to make the list by the end of next year.

All your favourites are there: 'At this moment in time', 'Absolutely', and '24/7'. I'd also pick out, 'With all due respect', which translates roughly as, 'You are a complete idiot, and here's why'.

Rest assured there's no preaching in this article and I'm as guilty as anyone. If you ever play catchphrase bingo with me, there are a couple of statements that belong on your scorecard, including the increasingly redundant, 'I know I sound like a broken record'.

But at the end of the day, a good blog requires team players who work hard and play hard. I'd like your most annoying phrases now - no need to park this conversation or take it offline. The door is always open and I'm all ears. Over to you.
