Can't think of any specific examples at the mo. apart from the obvious but office/business launguage really makes me seeethe - its like they're all suddenly conditioned to talk the same way - it has certainly killed all career aspirations I might have had, not that I did. Every word is another nail in the coffin.

All those already listed and some more...

'Thinking outside the box'
By using this phrase you are creating your own box to think
within and it makes you sound like a fool.

'so like'
As in 'He is so like full of himself'

Unnecessary / over use of abbreviations:
'STB and LM are meeting in the HNO to discuss PK and AfL'
What?
