‘Chill’ used as an adjective, as in ‘That was a nice day out: very chill.’.
Chilled would be the adjectival form I’d expect, but everyone below the age of 25 seems to have dropped the -ed.

The ever increasing use of ‘passed on’ or, worse, ‘passed’ instead of died or dead.
Fall off the perch. Now, that’s better.

A bit if self depreciating humour may be required. This thread is about phrases that are like nails down a chalkboard. But we’ve all just listed mild annoyances. If the phrases we’ve all contributed here really enrage us as claimed, then anyone who chances upon this thread could only (and accurately) surmise that we are a bunch of curmudgeons and gits without any real problems to worry about.
If the cap fits, we should probably wear it
