How did we get here? I use to know you so well
I am sure many of you that are reading this talk to me often. Either that or you are some stalker that enjoys reading what I like to say each day. Either way, I think you should know what really bugs me about the way people talk. Don't get me wrong, I am not some snooty grammar freak (...well...sometimes) and I don't get snippy with you when you misspell one word or make a statement with poor grammar (unless you are Ellie. Sorry! O smile I am going to list annoyances that I have noticed in an hour today. And I will use real examples. From real people that really said this. Don't be shocked at the way they speak. It shocked me enough. But really, just watch what you say, especially if it is something along the lines of the following...
Annoyance #1 When people put an exclamation point at the end of sentences when it shouldn't be a question. In fact, when you say the statement as a question, it doesn't even sound human.
Example: "*Karen doesn't know what to do? 20 minutes ago."
Annoyance #2 When a high school student still spells words as if they are in the third grade or lower. Unless you are mentally unstable, I suggest you grab a dictionary. We've only been in school for what? Twelve years? GEEZ.
Example: "There are some things I STILL need to deleat..." SERIOUSLY.
Annoyance #3 When people that think they are so cool and all that (what a cliche statement) and decide it's 'awesome' to put 'much' after an adjective they are describing a person as and do it every time they describe or insult someone.
Example: "Bipolar much?"
Thank you for listening to my rant. I don't care if you think I'm shallow and you can say "Harsh much?" all you want. I won't give a nickel! Good day.
