Would you like to meet one of my pet peeves?

If you know me, you know that I do make pets of some peeves. 

I am ready to start throwing stale banana peels at politicians for using these phrases:

"... threw (fill in the blank) under the bus."  It was interesting the first time.  Now it's not.  This phrase needs to be forcibly put on leave for a minimum of two years.

"24/7."  Stop.  Just stop.  Do not use that again.

"My friends across the aisle..."  I expect that one was old about two days after "the aisle" was built. 

What have I missed?  I know there are thousands of phrases that need to go away.  Any suggestions?
