Over used words, to the point of teeth grindīng

my pet hates in over used words

 

heading up the top of my list is

 

journey - chronically overused, think talent shows and fake acceptance speeches

 

like - current habit seems to be to answer a question using this word at the beginning of the sentence, think talent shows or 2 bit celebs

 

apropos - habitually used by those who try to sound intelectual or politically savvy

 

 

what are words that you feel are overused to the point of cliche, or just plain old tired

I.

I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Devastated - as in he/she/they were.

 

Never ravaged, ruined, wrecked, levelled, wasted, destroyed, annihilated, obliterated, shattered, or crushed.
