"For me"
I know it's your opinion because you're the one saying it. And the construction of it is just weird. "For" me. I dunno.

MODERATORS
Valid opinion on the phrasing. Disagree with the premise that anything someone says is necessarily their opinion.
Example: "For me, potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler" vs "Potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler". The former says that this is my experience and yours may differ. The latter says that this is true in general and if you find it easier the other way, there's a good chance you're doing something wrong.

Calling someone a bot or a shill because they post something you disagree with. It's so stupid. Like even if the person is a bot, would that matter if the point they're making is salient and sourced?
"I don't need to engage with the fact Biden has deported more people than Trump, because you are actually russian. Thus I have no reason to investigate my worldview."????
It's also such a tell. Like the person can't imagine anyone thinking anything other than what they think, so they must not be real people with internal lives. Can't imagine independent thought, literal NPC behaviour.
Especially because it's always the most average of redditor-take-havers that say it.
Pronouncing realtor like "real-uhh-torrrrr"
Kiddos, especially when used by people in professions that work with kids. Right up there with people who unironically say pupper or doggo. Just say kids.
"Hence why"
Syntactically makes no sense. Just say "that's why," that's what you are trying to say.
Game Changer, a stupid phrase that is so overused it has become meaningless

For me it's "I'm offended" or "this offends me". I get it, some topics might be triggering for some people but if you get offended because someone has a different opinion, that's your problem, not the rest of the world problem.
Okay my bad, I do like all of these lol
