A few that somewhat bother me:
Not really a new trend but it is used all the time, "I could care less" when people mean they could not care less. Saying I could care less means you actually care to some degree. Although some may debate that "I could care less" is used so often now it is understood as the same meaning.
And this one I have noticed being used more and more over the years, "I know, right?" If you know then why are you ending it with a question asking for validation?
But mostly I couldn't care less.
People pick up terms and words from the people they are around the most. That's how children learn languages. It's easy to pick things up accidentally when everyone around you are saying the same things over and over. I grew up in an area where "ain’t" was a part of everyday language by most people. It was hard to not adopt the word myself.
