1117 it’s not rocket science .... is it?

I received an e-mail from a friend about a study by researchers at Oxford University that compiled the ten most irritating phrases in the English language. They are, in order of obnoxiousness:

1) at the end of the day
2) fairly unique
3) I personally
4) at this moment in time
5) with all due respect
6) absolutely
7) it’s a nightmare
8) shouldn’t of
9) 24/7
10) it’s not rocket science

I know that I’m guilty of using all of these phrases in my use of the language. Absolutely!
