Things people say that annoys you...

This is awesome. I hate the "no worries" thing. I want to say "No, I know....."
I also can't stand "I axed you a question." Come on, you know you're saying it wrong.

This one seems to be gaining in popularity among black people, and it horrifies me.


I hate when people (EVERYONE) describes something as "cliche" instead of "cliched."


That's not correct? Guilty.


I thought it was correct, too, and I hate to admit that I am Black!


You can describe some thing as being a cliché. You can say: "The image of the entitled hipster with a wool beanie cap, black Elvis Costello glasses, skinny jeans and a blank stare has become a cliché...

Also find it funny when people pronounce the word "foreign" as "faww-ren" -- talk about a foreign pronunciation!

Have not heard this one. Can you provide an example of how it is used?


ex: "Amy fled the online forum with butthurt when fellow posters flamed her endlessly for making unsupportable claims in her postings online"...and so on.

Not a grammer issue...but I hate when religious people say stuff like "it's part of god's plan, it happened for the best", or stuff like that, when trying to comfort someone who has just experienced a terrible tragedy. Crap like:

"god needed another angel"
"god doesn't give you more than you can handle"
"we may not understand, but it was god's will"

I apoligize in advance to those whom I've offended by saying this.

What is wrong with 'thanks so much'? It should be 'thank you so much'?

This is just nit picking to me.

Yeah, not into nitpickers. They have bigger problems.

Correct:
That is a cliche.
That is cliched.

Incorrect: That is cliche.
