"For me"
I know it's your opinion because you're the one saying it. And the construction of it is just weird. "For" me. I dunno.
Valid opinion on the phrasing. Disagree with the premise that anything someone says is necessarily their opinion.
Example: "For me, potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler" vs "Potatoes are easier to peel with a knife than a potato peeler". The former says that this is my experience and yours may differ. The latter says that this is true in general and if you find it easier the other way, there's a good chance you're doing something wrong.

"Oftentimes"
Its always interchangeable with Often. Just use Often.
For me it's "I'm offended" or "this offends me". I get it, some topics might be triggering for some people but if you get offended because someone has a different opinion, that's your problem, not the rest of the world problem.
Kiddos, especially when used by people in professions that work with kids. Right up there with people who unironically say pupper or doggo. Just say kids.
Pronouncing realtor like "real-uhh-torrrrr"
"Hence why"
Syntactically makes no sense. Just say "that's why," that's what you are trying to say.
Game Changer, a stupid phrase that is so overused it has become meaningless

Queer. Not all gay men (the one group I can safely speak about) like to be associated with an ex-slur and its connotations.
