Apologies for this but who else is there to bounce it off? I've
recently noticed among certain friends and family that they
frequently reply with the word "exactly" on those (rare) occasions
when they agree with what I am saying. It is becoming as annoying as
the "rising intonation" at the end of sentences which was seems to
have had its heyday. Is anyone else noticing this or is it a local
thing?


How about 'massively' in the context 'that's not massively right' etc... - I
hear that a lot these days and hate it!


"Fantastic" is fantastically over used by television reporters, and
visually, the repeated opening and clasping of hands whilst doing
their 'piece'. No doubt these techniques are taught at reporter
school!
