    I'd say the worst phrase in the world is:
    "Roddy Collins, your thoughts on the game..."
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

    On a related theme to above - There's a great game you can play called "Bull**** Bingo".

    1. Simply write down all of these over-used phrases on your Bull**** Bingo card.

    2. Attend a meeting at work.

    3. Mark off each of the phrases as they are inevitably uttered during the meeting.

    4. The first to get a full house stands up during the meeting and shouts "BULL****!!!!".

    Great game!!

    A colloquial version of the 'Bull*hi*' game.....

    'Not being funny or anything, but to be honest at the end of the day the words I'm saying are literally the worst in the world, and that's a fact so shut yer face and don't use them, end of, but no offence like.'

    (if you just keep adding in the irritating phrases you have the perfect salutation to ward off undesirables )

    Usually used by people spouting rubbish (yeah I know, I know...) looking to have their opinion count and unwilling to have it challenged
    1. "Ole Ole Ole"
    2. GAA commentators referring to goalkeepers as "The Custodian".
    3. "Early Doors"
    4. "Doo-lally". An English phrase that Irish people have adopted.

    5. Irish people using the phrase "That's a bit Irish" to describe something in negative terms.
