    Close the loop, as in "We need to memo Bob on this so we can close the loop" Arghh!

    Action item as in "Let's review our action items for the week...." Must...not...kill...puppies!

    Bird Dog as in "If 'ol Steve doesn't quit bird doggin' this project he's gonna be in a mess of hurt" Head....exploding....

    Another one that just gripes me...

    Using the word "rims" for wheels, as in, "I gots me some new rims for my badass 74 Chevy Caprice".

    And usually the word "bling" will not be far behind. Another word to bitch about.

    I hate the term "hook(ed) up" when in reference to sexual activity.

    "Off The Hook"-what does this even mean?

    "That's What I'm Talkin' About"

    "Baby Mama (Daddy)"

    It REALLY chaps my hide when people pronounce the word "wash" like "worsh". AAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

    We have a local brewery in Portland called "Widmer". People always pronounce it "Windmeer".

    Can't stand the term "hottie".

    Well, if we're gonna talk WT expressions...

    I never understood why the word "party" was so offensive...we always used "get-together" or "gathering" instead.
