"This day in history" Is it the most irritating phrase ever?

" That being said"

Is a trendy one these days. Pointless

Excessive use of "like" in speech.
For filler words or non definitive sarcastic tone.
You know like. Why it is like, The way we, like talk. Like all the time.

Saying " literally " like literally every like time

"This day in history" doesn't bother me in the slightest. I see it as reference to an anniversary of something. No more, no less.
Use of "I could care less" instead of the more appropriate "I couldn't care less"has sadly reached epidemic proportions in the US and it grates on my nerves.
I've noticed brows furrow and frowns form over the use of "quick fast and in a hurry". Use that in my presence and you'll have to give me a minute... that faint smile and faraway look in my eyes is because I heard that phrase in a thick cajun accent and have been momentarily transported to another time and place.

It's the sentiment behind "This day in history" that riles me. The chief perpetrator uses it when describing F1. OK, a lot of people watch, me included. But it's not important; mildly entertaining sometimes. Most definitely not historical. Historical is something that has far-reaching consequences, possibly not apparent at the time, not something momentarily attention-grabbing that will be forgotten within the year.
