I'm not sure, alls I know is there was some kind of study that was conducted not too long ago that suggests the three phrases people have the hardest time saying are "I'm sorry", "I need help", and possibly "I was wrong".
Oh...people have the hardest time saying...I misread your original post as "phrases people say the most"...

Y'know, earlier today as I was trying to type up a reply for the Disney no longer producing 2D movies thread, I realize that there's one phrase that a LOT of MCers tend to use in such discussions, in that we describe something has "become a tool".

I really tend to say the word "the" a very large number of times on a daily basis.

Well, whenever I get excited into watching sports, I attempt to say, "oh my gosh," yes, and "yah-hoo" all the time.

When I say a number, it's "[like] eight billion" about 90% of the time.

Someone: Hey how long did you study for that thing?
Me: Dude, like eight BILLION hours

Me: There are like eight billion ladybugs all over my bedroom, what the...

Me: UGH I ATE LIKE EIGHT BILLION COOKIES AND NOW I FEEL GROSS

The other 10% of the time I roll my eyes and say a more situationally correct number.
