What about 'knickers'?

price point
other sales jargon - sounds like you are trying to sell me a used car!

at the end of the day - still hear it, after all these years

would rather hear overseas jargon than sales jargon any day!

Just "prom" instead of "the prom" or "my prom." I don't know when this started. It hurts my ears to hear "I am going to prom."

"Spend" instead of "budget" - as in "what is your monthly ad spend." Can't stand it.

People who correct grammar on DCUM - Failing to recognize many posters are on little iPhone's with autocorrect and without our reading glasses.

Are the people who say this old and never got out of the high school mentality?

So-called friends

From waitstaff: "Are you still working on that?"

I am not "working on" my meal, I am eating it. It isn't a project I am trying to complete.

"I'm going to go grab a bite."

"Going forward"

What you mean is "In the future".

"value proposition" - I have heard this when interviewing people. Or "elevator speech", which is this sixty second introduction that some outplacement firm thought up.
