People saying price point. Again, the heck is wrong with just price? Do we really need the point? Does it change anything?

Anyone who litters.

Tuna fish is the canned stuff
Tuna means tuna steak

Price is an exact price. Like what’s on the tag. Price point is a range. “Shirts at this price” means shirts that are exactly 24.99. “Shirts at this price point” means shirts in the 20-30 dollar range

People who say "gifted." "Give" is a perfectly nice word that has served us well for centuries. Use is, and stop trying to sound sophisticated. It doesn't work; you sound like a pretentious twat.

Are you reading Batman comics? Or do you actually know people in real life who talk like this?

People often use gentleman if they are talking about an African American. I’ve noticed this too. If they are mugged by a white man they say “a guy robbed my parents shop” or dude, man,

Afraid someone will think I’m racist if I don’t use the most respectful thing I can think of, that’s why.

What’s wrong with curated and gifted?

(Disclosure: I was in the gifted and talented program in school).

Then you should know that gifted here is an adjective, not a verb.

My mom kept saying "Oreo cookie" the other day. Multiple times. I finally had to tell her to knock it off!

I don't think it's irrational (most of the time) but barking dogs outside.

If your dogs bark all the time GOOD LORD put them inside. I get a few barks at a squirrel or something, but if it's almost constant while they are outside NO ONE WANTS TO HEAR THAT.

Ahem.

Unproductive complaining. From anyone. About anything.

How the owner of my salon comments on my weight every time I go there.

Last time she even argued with me about my weight.

Also before she cuts my hair she says things like “you have too much hair. We need to cut this - the hair overwhelms you. Too much hair!”

Yes, there are legions of white muggers and armed robbers out there, like every time they flash a suspect’s face on tv, it’s a white guy! And they aren’t getting the respect they deserve.
