"Like" when used 6 times in any 12 word sentence (see TOWIE) "You know" when used 6 times in any 12 word sentence (see D Beckham or most footballers) "Would/could of" instead of would have/could have Saying "hashtag" in front of words - as if that's supposed to mean something useful to the listener "Sick" for good "Dope" for good "Phat/Fat"(not sure & don't care on spelling) for good - what's wrong with "good"?? I guess I'm not down with the kids - or whatever the correct term is for that now, and don't even get me started on text speak in normal, everyday conversation. Edited by Charlie Croker (29 Apr 2015 12.08pm) I think you can forgive footballers for using filler words on tv interviews when they have a camera in their face after running around for 90 mins. Especially when they're not paid to make fancy speeches.

I hate "Can I get" with a passion but the ones that really get me at the moment are, your instead of you'll eg " We're gonna win the league, your see" and are instead of our "Keep you hands of are Yannick" admittedly these are used mostly in the written form but still annoying. How about people saying "you" instead of "your" and "of" instead of "off"?

Its not a figure of speech but the amount of people who confuse the word 'Loose' and 'Lose' (as in I saw Palace loose at Arsenal) is reaching epidemic proportions and the only way I can see of rectifying it is by culling...

I've also come across a few who confuse 'brought' with 'bought'. "I brought myself a ticket to the next palace game" This is one which is spoken but not often written as far as I have noticed.
