Words That Irritate Me

There are several words or phrases that irritate me for some unknown reason:
  • "Reach Out" as in contact the person and see if you can get more information.
  • "Synergy" It seems whenever this word is used - there isn't any.
  • "Brick and Mortar" as in a physical store or building. Isn't physical a shorter word?

I guess I'm a minimalist. I'd rather "call" someone than "reach out" to them. Forgive me if I choose to use the shorter words.
