“Comprised of,” which is not a thing — something either comprises or is composed of multiple other things — closely followed by “diffuse” when the intent is to say a situation has been “defused,” the imminent uproar has been averted. Third place, the use of quotation marks for emphasis. FFS people.
Of instead of have. Should’ve = should have not should of, and all that jazz.
Literally when it’s really not literal. “I literally died laughing”…well, obviously not if you’re telling us the story.
Obviously when it’s really not obvious. Cold caller: “Hi, this is Joe Bloggs from XYZ Co. Obviously I wanted to talk to you about life insurance…” Obvious to you maybe, Joe.
Also coldcaller: “This is a courtesy call…” How is it a courtesy to call and disturb my lunch to tell me about your life insurance?
