I knew a girl who said "...but at the same token..." no matter what she was talking about or comparing... and to me there is no way that phrase makes any sense! "at the same time" or "on the oter hand" but "at the same token"? Ugh it made me want to grab her shoulders ans scream at her to hear it 35 times a day!
My annoying co-worker says "and all such as that" all the time. It makes no sense. ( example: "I have to go to the store and all such as that" - I guess she has errands to run??? )

I actually saw that used in a NEWSPAPER article recently..... I could not believe my eyes.....I told my husband we are a country of dufuses now...
The one I get semi-annoyed with is how people from my area use the word "down". "I'm going down to Fort Kent today." ... But I thought Fort Kent was north...
