Because you're worth it.

Are you really worth it? Who says so? L'Oreal, who have never met you, but want you to buy their overpriced products.

'Make <insert country here> Great Again'; no one has ever revealed when that greatness actually was.

'Look' or 'Listen' when someone - usually a politician is speaking in reply.It implies that the other person is not listening etc.
Really patronising

'so'.... a meaningless term to fain a second at the start of an answer (usually by politicians) to a straight question

The false modesty phrases all over social media;


“I’m truly humbled to be have the opportunity to support the limbless albinos of Kathmandu by having a holiday in South Africa and walking up a mountain”
Never get this - why not give the money you spend getting there. for hotels etc to the charity? Why should people sponsor a holiday?

One of many examples on food programmes that rankle.
