Dangling participles! Such as when someone asks "Where are you AT", also "ax" instead of "ask" & everytime I see the words (?) "noone" or "alot" instead of "no one" or "a lot" or "do" in place of "due". There are so many that make me nuts! I'll stop ranting now!

Time for a change
I catch myself doing that. Have to blame being around my husband for so long. Why on earth can the man say Washington and washer and yet he doesn't say wash lol. I laughed so hard the first time he asked for a worsh cloth. He doesn't drink water, he drinks wader lol.

It's easy to directly or indirectly insult other readers without realizing it. The thread started out as online pet peeves, but evolved into a very different topic of verbal pet peeves which can be hurtful to many of our members. We were all raised in different regions of the country, and it isn't fair to joke about speech patterns of those who live elsewhere or are from different backgrounds.


Thanks :)
