What common phrase do you find annoying, and why?

The Top Ten

  1. Everything happens for a reason

    So, apparently even the worst horrors of life happen for a reason? I don't believe it!

  2. It is what it is

    People have the right to feel low, and this phrase just invalidates their feelings.

  5. Step out of your comfort zone

    Smoking kills
