...our lives, our futures!
That one doesn't bother me, but I know what you mean.
The ogre saying chicken at the goblin camp. The elf in the hag's area (Lorin's his name, I think?). Those are probably the two worst for me. They both grate on me, eventually feeling like fingernails on a chalk board.

Occasionally, I feel like some of the dialogue gets repeated too often. "Got me, got me, got me right in the gut."

I don't think Waukeen's Rest needs a timer. But I do think it would be improved if the fire eventually stopped after completing the main quest there, leaving a burned down husk of a building in the wake.
And I agree that there's no reason to show the building burning from the telescope.
I feel like those changes are kind of inevitable, and I always assumed it's the way it is now because we're in EA, but maybe I'm wrong.
