I hate with a passion the word "bipartisan". I think it should be outlawed. If you've ever watched the news in the u.s. in the last couple years, you should know exactly what I mean.

I loathe the word "orientated". It should be "oriented" but alas due to continual error, the annoyance has now made its way into the dictionary, so it's not even wrong anymore.
And it's a heard of Elephant, not Elephants.

Horton hears a who?


I also freak out when people lick their fingers before counting paper money. I worked as a cashier, this grossed me out.

People would stand in line when it was busy, and then when it was their turn they'd slow the line down by complaining about how busy it was.

People that dig in their pockets for change.

People that drive way too slow on a single lane highway.

Mail carriers that leave the mailbox open.

People that visit without calling ahead.

Sinks in public bathroooms with the pressure of a fire hydrant.

Previews for a tv show I'm waiting to watch, like seconds before it comes on.

LOL! With ears that big you'd think I'd get it right.
I also hate my spelling.

My pet peeve is women! For example...If a woman has to choose between catching a fly ball and saving an infant's life, she will choose to save the infant's life without even considering if there is a man on base.

Good policy. Never ever antagonize a food server. 😞

People who say "Give a 110%" or "We won, because we put in 120%".

Get a life! 100% is the top, what are are you trying to say?

"Yesterday, I ran the 100m sprint and I gave a 150%" - What? You ran it 1 1/2 times?

"Give 110% at work"? What must I do? Turn 8 hours into 528 minutes?
