all in all
all I know is

all of a sudden

all things being equal

all things considered

although

am I right? 

and
and all that.

and (as if) if that wasn´t enough 

and just like that,
and the thing is like,

at first
at the same time (but)

at this rate

, at which point,
at some point
and that's something

and still

and yet

but rather
… but that’s neither here nor there.
but what do i know? 

by all means

by and large

by now

by the way
Careful:  

certainly
check this out: 

come to think of it

consequently

considering (O),
considering (SVO),

conversely

correct me if i´m wrong

c´mon

despite the fact that
did you know that... 

don´t get me wrong

don´t take this the wrong way but

don’t get me wrong

first

first of all

firstly

for all I know

for all intents and purposes

for crying out loud

for example

for instance

for lack of something better

for one thing
for once
for once in your life

for sure

for that reason
for the time being

for this reason

for what it´s worth
...for that matter. 

fortunately

for starters
from time to time
from the looks of it
from my perspective
from what i gather,

furthermore

fyi

generally speaking

Get a load of this!

given that
given X
given the circumstances
god forbid
granted

Guess what!  

hands down
Hate to break it to you but...
Hold up.  

hopefully

however

How about...
how old were you when you learned... (current social media trend) 

I bet

I’d just as soon….
i’d just as soon we all use the same template.  

I’d just as soon end this before it gets worse. 

I don't know about you, but....
I don't know who needs to hear this, but... (internet meme)
If worse comes to worse

I know what you're thinking: 

I mean
I might add
i'm sorry
I'm sorry to say

I have to admit

I gotta admit
i got news for you:
I gotta tell ya
I gotta admit
I gotta know
I gotta hand it to you
I swear

I think we can all agree

I want to be absolutely clear
if... then... 

if I recall correctly
if I do say so myself

if it's any consolation

if I´m not mistaken
if you don´t mind my asking
....if you know what I mean
...if you see what I mean.
...if you know what I´m saying.

if you ask me,
...if you will

if only

if you twist my arm, If i had to, (si me apuras)

if you will
if you ask me,

if true,
if worse comes to worst
it goes to show
I´ll tell ya, (ya te digo)
I'm gonna be honest with you,

is it any wonder that
is it just me, or...

it bears repeating,

it goes without saying,
it has come to my attention that...
I think we can all agree...

it is important that

it just goes to show you
it just goes to show
it just so happens (that)...

it seems to me

it should be noted that

it should be pointed out that

it should be stressed that
it should come as a surprise to no one that

it´s worth mentioning
it's worth repeating
it’s no wonder...
if you think about it

I´ll tell you what,

I´m sorry to say,
