The strongest being "lie-berry". It's not a libary. That would make me a Libarian, making it seem I am from the Land of Libaria. There are 2 R's in the word, and neither of them are silent.

There is no such word as "supposably", or "orientate", or "nuke-u-ler".

I'll stop now.

"irrigardless"

OK. I admit to talking on the phone while shopping , or i plug in my ipod into my ears ..

When you are on a date leave your phone in your pocket and focus on your date.

Speaking of language related pet peeves. It make me crazy when someone use "lose" and "loose" in the wrong form. I see it often in chats.

Don't even get me started on grammar and spelling peeves.

Unnecessary apostrophes drive me apeshit! Every plural word does NOT need an apostrophe people!!

Your and you're

Starting a sentence with a conjunction. Oy!

A build up of ketchup, mayo, washing up liquid.... the list is endless. Just hanging there like swollen hemorrhoids around the top of the bottle. No need, no need for it at all.

Huge peeve of mine. The misuse of ellipses. Example:

I had a great day........visited with my pony..she was happy that I brought her carrots...............................I'm so lucky to have a pony.........Life sure is great with ponies............................................ ...i think everyone should have a pony!!!............

Drives me fuckin crazy!!!!

Uh oh....I would be such a pain in your rear. I use these constantly, because I type exactly how I talk. I use either a ton of ellipses or too many commas, to show the slight pauses (damn southern drawl) that would be there when having an actual verbal conversation with me. It's habit for me, which I only recently realized the true extent of....oops.

To me the worst thing a loved one or friend can do to really tock me off is to hang up on me while we r having a difference of opinion. To me its just rude behaviorand shows a lack of respect. Believe I WILL tell u about the next time we talk usually rather quickly cuz I will call u back

I agree! Bbq sauce has been the worst so far OR when your spices have become dry and hardened so they no longer shake.

Sparkles -

Please refer to the section of our TOS where we discuss intolerance and specifically bullying and poking at other members.

For the record, I also reviewed the rep note that you left for another member here and want to make it super clear to you that you are about to find yourself on a lengthy time-out if you continue to use the forums here to play "mean girl" or "unnamed target".

While it's fine for you to be irritated that people are not posting, spelling, or using grammar the way you want them to, it is NOT OK to use this forum in a way that might make other people feel ashamed or ugly about participating here.

This is a diverse community. People sometimes misspell things. People sometimes use sentence structure creatively. People sometimes use a bunch of ellipses......................
Hell, some of us can barely read or write but that doesn't mean we are not worthy of each other's basic respect. Bottom line? Please think about how what you post might feel to someone else before you post it. And if you are doing that shit on purpose? It's shitty.

Appreciate your cooperation!

That little spluge (sp?) of water that always seems to emerge first from the ketchup bottle, no matter how much I shake it. What is the deal with that??
