I hate it when people use "which" to move a preposition forward in a sentence, but end up doubling the preposition at the end of the sentence.

"This world in which we live in..."

"There are no issues of which I'm aware of."

This is so frustrating because it's a conscious change in word order that is made completely unnecessary--especially in spoken language--by the final preposition. It only serves to make speech sound awkward and overly formal.
