I thought you always said "What-oh", when you were with your chums.

Well, at least everyone seems to answer the phone with "hello" even if it's gone out of fashion in face-to-face greetings. But I didn't realise "hey" was particularly a 'thing', people tend to go with hi, hiya or all right round these parts.
"Wag'wan?" if my kids number comes up, "Ey up mi duk" if it's a mate and "Morse" if I don't recognise it 
The over used word 'could' in newspaper headlines and on TV news channels.
Could is not a fact, neither is it news, it's conjecture or someones opinion.
Maybe they should start the 6 o clock news with ' Good evening, here's what we think might happen in the future....
Yeah - but when "could happen " becomes "has happened" it's a bit bloody late.
You could be right, you could be wrong.
Just my opinion.
But a lot of people take 'could' as fact and repeat it as fact.
Two things.
1. That bloody Nationwide advert!
2. Not being able to post on here last night!!!
The way some women in the media (not all women, of course!!!!!!!!!) think everything they do is 'self-empowering'. I'm into the equality of the sexes, but these days, that's not enough. 'Took a dump this morning! Felt so self-empowered! Screw you, guys! Girl Power! Like to see you take such a fine-bodied pooh after what we've been through! Get outa here!'
TV continuity announcers who say about the forthcoming Friller and warn about language Fru-out.

Adverts where someone is playing a guitar on screen.
Play the right chords at least. There's one for an insurance company with a sexy girl supposed to be playing 'rumble' by Link Wray. Your hands are not up there love, it's a dsus2.
