The Crimson Cross 7,532 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 People who dont reply to your important texts. OH MY GOD HOW BUSY ARE YOU?? Sometimes when replying to someone, I end up taking a century to write a novella length text response. It's a bit of an exaggeration, but it ends up around 21 pages long sometimes. Phone screen pages that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crystalline Shine 104 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 1. Incorrect usage of: your and you're their, they're, and there its and it's 2. Using subject pronouns as object pronouns and vice versa ex. Me and pinkie bought a box of donuts correction of the above: Pinkie and I bought a box of donuts. 3. Anyone who thinks "should of" or "could of" is correct. 4. Most other major grammatical errors. I think I'm a bit of a grammar Nazi... a friend once sent me the first chapter of a fic he wrote for constructive criticism. I sent back a fully revised version and hired myself as his proofreader/editor. I do that regularly to things my IRL friends write, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crystalline Shine 104 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 Over where I live, nearly 80% of people I have talked to speak like that...I have a solution to your problem:step 1: buy large amounts of grammar books. 2. Next time you see a person type/write that, locate that person (bring one of the books) 3. Either slap them across the face with it or throw it at them. 4. Run away whilst yelling the page number explaining it. 5. Repeat steps 1-4 when necessary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windseeker 546 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 1. A brand new PC that can't play a game even if it surpasses it's system recommendations. 2. Uncomfortable underwear. 3. Communists online who praise Stalin, using a computer bought from a major retailer. 4. People hovering over my computer monitor. 5. Doing dishes all the time, seriously I wasn't put on this earth to clean your damn dishes. 6. People who uphold the ways of the perfect spelling race through National Socialist policies. 7. Anti-brony furries, they do exist. Surprising. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent back a fully revised version and hired myself as his proofreader/editor. I do that regularly to things my IRL friends write, too. You are my hero. I think I'm probably one of the only people on the planet who proofreads every forum post I make before clicking the button. Hell, if I didn't proofread, I would have said the exact opposite of what I had intended dozens of times. I believe many flame wars could be prevented by proofreading. Here--let me add one to your list: use of the phrase "A whole nuther." *edit* Ooh, ooh, I just thought of a another pet peeve I absolutely must list. When you open a new jug of milk or juice or what have you and try to pour it and it just clings to the jug and dribbles down the side and onto the counter and floor. We can 3-D print human skin tissue but we can't make a friggin jug of milk that you can pour easily? F*CK!

MilesTheLunar 67 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 When people misuse words. You can access a full dictionary at any time, so you have no excuse to use the word "hipster" incorrectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envy 5,752 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 Oh, I have ton, but here's a few recent ones I can think of: ~When people make a big deal about spelling/grammar. If the only thing you can think of in responding to somebody is correcting their spelling/grammar, you're not contributing anything. It's irrelevant, and annoying. ~Tech elitists constantly hijacking conversations about video game consoles to state how underpowered they are and how everybody should switch to PC. I thought people bought consoles, to, I don't know, play games? ~"*Hated Shonen anime* is so overrated!" - Says everybody and their dog. "*Popular background pony is so unappreciated!" ~Camera and Wii Remote/Pad batteries that are always dead when I'm ready to use them. ~Lack of manners (burping loudly, spitting, leaving the toilet seat up) Just stop. ~Reeds. Playing music was so much simpler when I was a brass player. xD ~Getting hungry for something I can't currently have. (Happening right now... T_T) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camouflage 26 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 (edited) - When someone doesn't do their work and forces someone else to finish for them - When I have to get something for someone who is two steps away - Remote holders, you can't change the channel or anything until they put it down or leave the room - Guys who holler at ladies when they walk by - Being told I have to wear a dress/some other fancy/girly thing because I am female Edited May 19, 2014 by Camouflage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverseFaller 2,478 May 19, 2014 Share May 19, 2014 (edited) My biggest pet peeve is bad grammar.

Discordian 6,004 May 20, 2014 Share May 20, 2014 In contrast, one of my pet peeves is the commonly called "Dad Joke". You know... I'm hungry. Hi hungry, I'm Dad. And anything similar: What's up? The sky. It's funny you should mention that because I do both of these things. Moreso the latter. Not because I necessarily think it's funny, it's mostly habit. When I don't have anything in particular to say "the sky" serves just as great a purpose as "nothing" or "things" or anything of the like. Although I learned it from my grandpa. He does it all the time. I learned half my smartassery from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LunaLover92 283 May 24, 2014 Share May 24, 2014 Here are my pet peeves! 1. When people chew food with their mouths open 2. Screaming and whining kids (C'mon we've all been there, in the grocery store, movie theater etc) 3. Cell phones in a movie theater or people who don't shut up during a movie! 4. Slow Computers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FractalMoon 378 May 24, 2014 Share May 24, 2014 Hmm... there are a few. People who claim Linux is perfect without understanding that the Windows userbase doesn't want open source, they want productivity. When someone uses philosophy/religion/political affiliation to justify something wrong. People who take what little they know of you and try to extrapolate your personality. People assuming because they're older they know you better than you do. Use of the term 'Grammar Nazi'. seriously people, they're not Nat Socialists, they're totalitarians.
