It's easy to rattle off a list of management-speak phrases that are really irritating.
But which commonly used words or phrases do you hate?
My top two are "pate" as in "bald pate" and "sup" as in "supping a pint". I have no idea why I hate them, I just do! My ex-ex-ex (yes, it's gone from one "ex" to 3 in the space of 5 months

There are others which lie in the grey area between management-speak and normal parlance, such as "sought after" and "exclusive", commonly seen in estate agents' adverts.
