people who over-pronounce the 't' in "often"

people who are too lazy to vote but bitch about politics

people who talk on their goddamn cell phones while you're trying to have a conversation with them ("texting" applies as well)

the sound of someone else or myself accidentally biting a fork or any other silverware

when people confuse you're and your or there, their, they're

formulaic and overrated sitcoms or crime-related series

gossip

when you buy some tylenol, and you have to open the box, then take off the shrink wrap on the bottle, then open the bottle, then take out that wad of cotton

when people say "two thousand six" (or insert any other number) for the year instead of "twenty O 6".  I mean did you call 1999 "one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine"?  huh, didya?

people saying "you and me" when its "you and i"

or when people say seen when its supposed to be saw

when your watching a movie, and someone quotes what is just about to be said.      or when something funny is said then someone asks if i "seen that" then re-tells the joke or action.

obnoxious eaters.
cheers.

Quotepeople saying "you and me" when its "you and i"

agreed, but I think it's even worse to say 'you and I' when it should be 'you and me', because it's pretentious.

haha, i knew a family who were good friends of a girl i dated who said "shauna and I" or "andrew and I" no matter if it should've been "..and me" or "...and I". And I know what you guys mean. That one actually is more of a bother, because it's not just inattentiveness to grammar, but over-agressive correction.

Actually, now that I think about it, I think the kids just corrected the girl I dated so many times on (and I think they were normally right) that the started just substituting "...and I" for everything in order to never be wrong.

Frustrating.

Even though I'm an English major, I'm generally not bothered by that, but sheesh.

When people think a Yellow light means FLOOR IT, while talking on a cell phone and putting on make-up at the same time.  

Only 2 squares left on the toilet paper roll.  and no backup roll.  ( hello sock  :)).

OH i thought of another one!
when you're in a carful of people or just in a very populated place and music comes on and someone sings along to the music and is either tone deaf or doesn't know the words, hanging on to last syllables of each.

Having to cut my right hand fingernails with my left hand.  It's just not fair and a poor design by God.

When people pronounce the "L" in ideal.

When people say their phone number that has a zero in it and call it an "O". (no disrespect MMJ fanatic, I just can't stand it)

Cars that don't come with turn signals, using them is fucking law, it doesn't matter if you're in a turning lane or no one's around. Fucking use it.

the expression:   'nuff said

people on cell phones at shows, during songs

people who think liberals are open minded

people who want to promote freedom of religion and not questioning the oppression of women by Islam, but getting all pissed b/c some christian says Merry Christmas

bling bling

use of the N word as empowerment

New Orleans Saints' bandwagoners
