"Plus VAT" - always annoys me 
"Do you want fries with that?"
"Have a nice day"
"We won WWII for you brits!"
"God bless America!" (said with a hand laid against heart) - God bless the chap in charge of the bunch of fcukwits who are going to end the world in a few weeks, I think not!
"They all do that sir!" - usually from car dealerships!
"yeah, it's got like 400bhp and all I've done is chip it and change the backbox!"

Surprised this one not cropt up
"Don't go there" that pi$$es me off
Most thinks that come from the Yanks whether lies or not they manage to *******ise the English language and still call it English, coupled with the fact that a lot have an annoying droning accent.

From: same time, different place
Some repeats, but still:
At this moment in time (there are no moments in space)
The fact of the matter is
I’m not racist, some of my best friends are […], but…
Transportation (why not transport?)
Can I ask you a question?
[Heard on a US passenger aircraft] When you deplane… (
)
Collateral damage
To impact on something
With (all due) respect, …
Currently having my 14 yr old son saying “whatever” after anything I tell him
Inability to complete a full sentence without punctuating with “like” 2-3 times

Cafe late
The phrase "we sooooo in love"
The word mature
People who put the word 'ever' near the end of every sentence (ie I'm Peter Andre's biggest EVER fan)
Anything that the cast of Dawson's Creek say
And worst of all - the words TRAFFIC WARDEN I've just been given a ticket for parking on a single yellow for 10 mins, where I parked there was no sign of any 'no parking' signs - the bloody thing was round the corner :angry:
AND it's my 21st today!

From: In the naughty corner
People who say "excuse me" when they want to get past, rather than "excuse me, please". The former is an instruction, the latter is the polite request. [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]
Petty? Possibly. Just a pet hate.

'I don't want to be funny but...'
Trans - I'm going to insult you. Actually I'd prefer it if you were funny.
'I turned round to him and said....'
Why were you having a conversation with your back to someone? How rude.
