Are there some words that suddenly become irritating to you and you are hearing them everywhere?
Lately the word "Arguably" (Open to argument: an arguable question, still unresolved) has irked me. Most of the time, it is used even when there isn't much contention over it (e.g. "Welcome to Tuesday, arguably the dullest day of the week."). The word seems overused to me.
What about you? What words seem overused, misused, or just plain stupid?
