'Not that I'm (insert racist, sexist, etc)..but' in order to prefix (and try to lessen the severity of) a paticularly offensive statement.
People talking about themselves in the 3rd person
As for 'dude' its the same as people using things like 'chief', 'mate' etc. Doesn't bother me at all. Particularly useful when you can't remember someone's name to avoid embarassment.
Most management speak just amuses me rather than riles me up.
I find a lot of the forced 'invented' words more annoying than anything else, people trying to be 'unique' and or witty and generally failing very badly. It seems to be one of the trends in here more and more. You are not Chris Morris, so don't even try, you just look like a conceited tit.
