This sentence:
"Do you want to come with" OR "Want to come with" OR "I'm going with."
You DO NOT end a sentence on a preposition like that. Do you want to come with . . . .who? Me? Him? Her? Your dog? Your pimp? End the freakin' sentence.

1. People who do not return phonecalls.
2. The sentence "I could care less." When said correctly, it's "I COULDN'T care less."

Posted: 1/22/06 at 1:14pmI despise people who feel compelled to talk on their cell phones in grocery stores. I mean when did everyone suddenly become so IMPORTANT that they have to be in complete contact wherever they go?!? Some putz in the produce section acting like he's the freakin President on the Red Phone to the Soviet Premier, everyone needs to get over their incredibly unimportant selves!

when people have their radios turned up so loud in their cars i can hear it in my car. even when it's good music i'd rather listen to what's playing in the car i'm riding in... that is why i have my own radio after all.

I hate it when I try to have a converstaion with my Mom and I have to follow her from room to room because she doesn't have the courtesy to sit down and listen to me. I've pointed it out to her, but all she says is, "I heard what you said." You may have heard me, but walking around and performing taks does not give me the impression that you're listening or the least bit interested. Ugh!
I also can't stand it when I talk to my brother on the phone and he starts a different conversation with whomever is there with him, all the while leaving me hanging.
Last but not least: When people say ATM machine or PIN number. There's a store nearby that uses a debit machine that tells you to "type your PIN number."

Posted: 1/22/06 at 11:47pmwhen people are walking down a BUSY street, and suddenly turn their heads to look at something behind them....yet they keep walking FORWARD and inevitably crash into whatever poor soul is immediately in front of them (and that poor soul often happens to be me)

Posted: 1/23/06 at 7:40amWhen you are driving and do something nice for another driver and he/she does not wave...that really bugs me. I also don't enjoy it when people interrupt me while I'm talking.

1. Bad spelling/grammar/lack of punctuation and capitalization in places where it's usually expected (e.g. message boards such as this one.)
2. People with annoying cell phone habits. I know people who will carry on half-hour conversations on their phones while in the presence of other people. Sometimes just one other person--me. If I'm not entertaining enough that you can't politely end your call and talk to me, then why are we even hanging out? It's really rude.

Jose' my little brother is so like that! I can never take much of what he says at face value, especially if it's a conflict with someone else.
Chrrymn and BwayLeadman, that's me. I'm always being chastised for not "picking up" my feet or not "walking straight."

People who insist on having a long cellphone conversation while you are there, instead of saying "Listen, I'll call you back, I"m with someone."- I seccond that
People who interrupt me in the middle of a sentence.
People who dont understand that even in college, sheets should be washed more then once a year. Especially when that person is my roomate.
People who spell cool, Kewl.
