I would nominate “not so much” as THE most overused phrase

I don't mind that phase. What phrase I absolute hate is "going forward" when some mind numbing CEO uses that phase to discuss future aspects of a company you know will never happen.

You ever catch the Dilbert about that? Boss uses the phrase "on a going-forward basis" and Dilbert says "Uh-oh, now he gets the concept of time".

Well, maybe you had to be there. It was pretty darn funny, though.
