[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. So many things.
1. When people say croissant without a French accent. #frenchitup
2. When people are walking and they cross right in front of me forcing me to come to a sudden stop, especially if those people are men. 
3. People who listen to music or watch videos in public without headphones. [/quote]

LOL - total opposite on the foreign language thing. When non-Spanish speakers overpronounce "quesadilla" or "gracias". Same for Giada and her ridiculous pronunciation of "mozzarella" (yes, I'm sure that's the right way to pronounce it in Italian). French is a bit of an outlier, however - it's really hard to say "le pain quotidien" in an American accent without sounding stupid.

+1  It actually makes me irrationally angry when native English speakers overly pronounce words in other languages with the corresponding accent in the middle of an English sentence.  No, I'm not going to say "cwaasau" because I also wouldn't randomly call Paris "Paree" while I'm speaking English.  [/quote]
