“I mean….” which are the words that anyone interviewed on radio seems to start a sentence with these days!

"To tell the truth" ....

"Being honest..."

"To be fair..."

I'm trying to stop saying all of these because I am honest and fair, so don't need to add extra words!

I just came across this.
Thankfully, blue sky thinking, and outside the box seem to have vanished.
Here are the Top 10 familiar but problematic words and phrases that people want banished in 2022.

•Wait, what?
•No worries.
•At the end of the day…
•That being said…
•Asking for a friend…
•Circle back
•Deep dive
•New normal
•You’re on mute.
•Supply chain

My least favourites on here are Deep dive OFSTED speak for however good you are, we’re looking for anything you might have missed!
The New Normal used by people when you express concern about something unpleasant or inherently dangerous that is becoming commonplace.
