Default Redundant

I'd like to start a light-hearted look at redundancies. Let's post some we have noticed, or are long-time pet peeves, or that we aren't sure are, but think they should be. Discussion and debate is welcomed.

I'll start with one I'm not sure of, but I have argued it to be, from multiple alma maters: "conquer and prevail".

I've also argued that "fend for yourself" has reached the stage, as you never hear fend used elsewise.

Bugsy
