At the end of the day when it comes to writing I personally think, with all due respect, that people should be able to write absolutely whatever they want, as long as it’s fairly unique.

Was that sentence irritating? It should be! It contains five of the most annoying phrases according to researchers at the University of Oxford.

The top 10 most irritating phrases are:

1) At the end of the day
2) Fairly unique
3) I personally
4) At this moment in time
5) With all due respect
6) Absolutely
7) It’s a nightmare
8 ) Shouldn’t of
9) 24/7
10) It’s not rocket science

What other phrases do you think are worth avoiding?
