Most annoying Stereo magazine claim

The new thread "What's the most trustworthy stereo magazine" got me to thinking. One of the things that inhibits their credibility, and makes them pretty annoying, is when the reviewers become effusive about a product (as if it were the second coming of Christ), going on and on about a product and using canned flattery like, "it removed another veil from the sound stage." This claim and "it made me want to just listen to the music and play all my CD's again," are the most annoying to me. What about you?

I agree with Jsbail when reviewers say that a SS amp is tube like.
Stereokarter remarks on Stereophile's recommeded list is right on. What a joke.
I am an electronic idiot, but I hate it when a reviewer put so much emphasis on measurments. As Sam Tellig once said " are you going to listen to it or measure it" something to that effect.
