Having said that — another phrase that grates on my nerves. That having been said, I digress.
Please! Stop digressing and stick to the subject. And stop filling time with needless phrases like, “having said that” and “I digress.”
This is a lot of annoyance to unpack. That is another annoying word “unpack.” Now, issues don’t need to be examined, they need to be unpacked. Pack your bags and get the Hell outta earshot (asunder, out of range, yonder).
Do you want to sound hip, cool (trendy, in vogue, all the rage), stop with the annoying buzz words and go back to using simple language, not a catch phrase or the days most popular shibboleth.

News anchor pronounces "Import-int" The word is Important. I accept the dictionary pronunciation. The teaching these days is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu9Kb4oN3EQ
Ain.t aint a word. Ain.t it?
It ain't not a real word.
"Let me make one thing perfectly clear, he ain't got a dog in this fight" ("ain't" is used so you'll sound like some rube who's too dumb to lie)
C'mon, man! If you think ain't is a real word, you are a dog-faced pony soldier.
"At the end of the day"...........Which end?....I mean, how about "in summary", "finally", etc...............this phrase will not die, as most buzzwords do.
I have never found a reason to use AT THE END OF THE DAY in a sentence except when talking about turning the clocks forward or backward.
"Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?"
Above ground.
"trending"
"life skills" in a job interview as in "what life skills do you bring to this position?"
