Hypocrisy
Overheard the other day: "I've told you before - stop swearing in front of the kids, for fuck's sake." Your tales of double standards please.

The phrase "I'm not being funny, but..."
Aaargh that does my fucking crust in.
It doesn't help that the upper echelons in the company I work for seem contractually obliged to say it every five minutes, compelling me to stove thier smug yuppie kites in with a chair.
Haven't yet though, so I'm writing this from my work desk instead of a prison library. And no, I'm not a hypocrite, just possessed of enough self-control not to commit murder, however satisfying the prospect may be.

Add to that
"I'm not a racist, but . . . " followed by a mind-bogglingly racist rant that would make a BNP recruiter shake his head in disgust.

similarly
no offence but....
my dislike of this almost got me in trouble once. Was at a party, very wasted and talkingto near some lumbering neanderthal, one of the sorts of losers who left school a few years ago, still lives in the town they grew up in, still doing the same shit job they had when they left school, and still going to parties with the people at college.
Anyway, this moron said something to me "no offence mate, but "
I was drunk obviously, so followed this with "no offence, but I think you are a fucking wanker"
this did not go down well, and I narrowly avoided getting a pasting thanks, in the main, to my friend Caitlin.

Actually a superb one is
'with all due respect'
as in 'I am treating you with the contempt you so richly deserve, you fucking cretin'

"With all due respect..."
"...which being honest, isn't very fucking much."
I'm still waiting for the day I can use that one without getting fired, pasted or both :)

A cow-orker has a similar condition, starting every sentence on the phone with "in fairness, though" or "to be fair"...

*head implodes*
I fucking HATE the way people pepper their speech with these meaningless phrases.
These are the same people who will say 'I was literally...' when they mean the polar opposite.
Although, to be fair, at the end of the day, like, I do literally do it myself ALL THE, LIKE, TIME....
EDIT: said with Autralian Quizzical Intonation, which is literally the most annoying thing in the world, and I really do mean literally.
