    I HATE "vajayjay," it really irritates me. And when people say "nuke-ular" instead of "nuclear," especially when the president does it; if you have the authority to launch them, you should be able to pronounce the word!

    "It is what it is"......way over used.

    Also, when people say that you just have to have faith. As if the bills get paid with faith.

    If anyone says `Lets not jump to conclusions` my skin is crawling.
    Also `At the end of the day` tends to make people look under educated too.

    Warshington (my mom says this and she lives in Washington!)

    Anyways. I think that is an upper midwest slang. The word is ANYWAY.

    Irregardless. This word makes no sense. "Ir" and "less" both indicate a negative to the word "regard". A double negative = a positive. Irregardless means not-regardless or with regard. Although it is used as emphasis as a super negative. Mostly used by ignorant people trying to sound smart.

    Conversate. I'm pretty sure this is a noun, but it is used as an verb as well. Again, like in the case of irregardless, it is used by ignorant people trying to sound smart. The words it is a conjunction of; converse (verb) and conversation (noun).

    Reinteratethe word is "iterate" meaning to repeat, reinterate means your repeating-repeating.

    You see.... I have noticed this alot in tv/radio ads, especially radio ads, it usually is a precursor to describing something about the object they are selling. For example: "The lexus gives you a smooth ride. You see, lexus uses independent suspension..." No, I don't see, I'm in a car listening to the radio, how the hell am I suppose to see that? Should I close my eyes while driving and pretend I'm seeing it?

    When I ask for something, "It's over yonder", well, where the hell is "yonder?

    Or when someone hears me but makes me repeat myself.

    "Well, everyone's trying to get ahead, not just you", "everyone faces the same problems"

    quoted for truth, I hate when people say that shit. No, it isn't always "is what it is".

    People who use 'like' every other word. 'Like, I really, like, like you, but like, I don't know if I can like, be with you.' Use another effing word!

    Oh, and it's only when it's typed out, but people who don't know how to use your, you're, and yours correctly. It makes my skin crawl and I want to get out a red marker and go to town editing that shit.

    I hate when people will, for example, be on the phone and say "Me and her are going somewhere," it really makes me think that person is selfish. I dunno why. Another one that I have done for YEARS from growing up in nebraska is ending a sentence with a preposition, such as "Where's it at?" That "at" drives me crazy!!!

    Ooh, bad grammar makes me mad too... PLEASE learn the difference between your and you're, there and their, its and it's, to and too, and then and than.

    I also find it really irritating when people say something like "Jane went out with Heather and I." I think the people who use it think it makes them sound more intelligent, but it doesn't, it makes you sound illiterate. It's "Heather and I" in the subject, but "Heather and ME" in the predicate. You wouldn't say, "Jane went out with I."

    Also when people mix up "good" and "well," that's annoying. I heard somebody say the other day that he got a "good-paying job." How he did that without being fluent in his native language, I have no idea.

    And am I the only one who wants to slap people for writing "u" instead of "you"? Grrr.

    This thread is the best thing since Lynne Truss wrote Eats, Shoots & Leaves.

    Have I told you lately that I love you? All of those things drive me batty. Half the time I don't have the heart to tell people that they're (oooh I did it right!) using fucked up grammer, but I really want to.

    OH DEAR GOD..the good/well things makes me grind my teeth. And EVERYONE does it. I've even caught myself doing it and gotten pissed off at ME!

    Yeah "u" drives me nuts. On text message I may forgive it because its annoying to type on the little phone keyboard so ok..shorten some things...but in regular email..just stop.

    Nuculer drives me crazy too.

    And when people ghetto-ize words. I'll try to spell these phonetically...Daaaayum(damn)...heyowell(hell).... ..forgit(forget)..Rockweiler(rottweiler)..Doverman (doberman)...etc..etc..

    Makes my brain itch.

    Oh yeah.... and people going way the fuck overboard with the LOLcat speak.

    No, you CAN'T haz jack shit.... not till you lern to type rite. You aren't a cute kitten, you're a 40 year old man with coke bottle glasses and sweatpants and you live in a basement. Your dream of getting a girl to fall in LUV with you by captioning cat photos will never work. Loser.

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    Talking to my mom about her dog a few months ago. and my mom said
    " She's going deef"
    I said huh? She's going where?
    "deef. deef. Ya know, her she's losing her hearing!"
    Ohh....You mean she's going deaf!

    I also despise Pittsburghese. i have tried my absolute hardest not to have the pittsburgh accent or language come out...but every once in awhile, it comes out. I think it sounds so hillybilly and uneducated and I hate it. Maybe it's just because I hate pittsburgh.
