Minor things that piss you off
« on: March 13, 2006, 05:38:35 PM »

Let's all bitch about the little things that cause us to see red. I'll kick it off with one of my favorites:

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=prolly

IT'S 'PROBABLY' YOU FUCKSTICKS!

Even worse is when I hear some slack-jawed mouthbreather use 'prolly' in real conversation. I will instantly lose any respect I may have had for you once you utter this nonsense.

This ranks right up there with:

 http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=sammich

'Sammich.' You're not four goddamn years old, it's not cute, stop saying this.

Oh yeah, and stinky janitors. Take a fucking shower already.

#1 minor thing that pisses me off:  the one fucking tard in the left lane who screws up traffic for everyone by going 10 mph below the speed limit.

That pretty much tops it for me.

What about "sandwooch"?  Does sandwooch piss you off?  Cause that's how I say it most of the time.

Minor things that piss me off?  The box of tissues on my kitchen counter made steam come out of my ears.

People who don't understand that the purpose of an on-ramp is to provide you sufficient space to attain merging speed.

Oh, and "irregardless".

Not a whole lot gets on my nerves. Maybe bad wine. If I can have a sammich wif it, I can prolly tolerate it tho.

Actually, little abreviations like that can be irksome, but the real way to get on my nerves is to come into a tobacoonist's shop while I am there, look at a hookah, and make some sort of 'How much pot can you fit in the chamber' comment. Retards!

I actually used to use 'irregardless' quite frequently in normal conversation, all the while believing it was a word, not a double negative. Some part of me still clings onto the notion that it's acceptable.

Irregardless of that fact, I've changed. I don't use no double negatives no more. Now I'm prolly off to have a sandwoosh.

Well, actually, it is a word. English language dictionaries recognize it -- some reluctantly, some without reservation. Here is Merriam-Webster's deffinition (on-line version):

Quote
Main Entry: ir·re·gard·less
Pronunciation: "ir-i-'gärd-l&s
Function: adverb
Etymology: probably blend of irrespective and regardless
nonstandard : REGARDLESS
usage Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that "there is no such word." There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.


Use of this word doesn't irritate me like it does many people I know. However, I can't help but categorize people who use it as weak-minded, middle-brow, borderline illiterate hypervocabularizers. Usually that conclusion is borne out in the course of further discourse.

the little things? i have a lot of big things. not so many little things.

but here's a few:

people who just stop walking in a major foot traffic area without looking behind them first, especially in a crowded doorway area.

being forced to read stuff i'm not interested in.

using body language (like shrugging) to answer my question, especially when i'm not looking.

excessive cussing and loud talking in a public space with no clue that you are bothering others. (like when i rode ManCrack to DC, i mean AmTrak  sorry)

etc


oh yeah. i also hate "sammich" and "prolly" and really hate "imma" but i use "tho" all the time... of course i don't use my shift key much either and i know that's annoying to some, but this is the way i have always typed.

i hate when people hand write "U" llike "C U later!"

 :roll: or answer with "Y" and "N"
