Didn’t see “Reach out” during my quick scan of the list.

I absolutely abhor that one.

Both of these apply when they are used out of context.

“Reach out” is horrible! Makes me cringe and want to slap someone every time.

Me too.

Because when someone says, “reach out,” I think of “and touch someone.” Like around 300 meters.

You should reach out to the author and see if it can be added to the list.

Hate “reach out” almost as much as “shout out”

Me too. What is wrong with the more concise and direct “I will call him” or “I will email him?” “Reach out” is so beta and 1970s encounter group touchy-feely.
