.....is people who say and write "should of" or "would of" instead of "have". FFS, it's basic English. Why can't folk just get it right? Rant over. |

It pisses me of too when people can't write with proper grammar. But I've learned to accept it, especially after meeting many people who are quite intelligent but can't put a sentence together on paper to save their life. Apparently there is a part of the brain that connects spoken language to written language, and in some people it doesn't function as strongly as it does in others. I have a cousin who was sent to grammar school for years as a child, and he still can't write a sentence. But he's a brilliant mechanical engineer making six figures, so hey, who am I to judge? |

Technically, it's not grammatically correct to start a sentence with the word 'but', but I'm only making an observation here. I personally ignore that (and a few other rules) in the interests of getting things done quicker. The fact of the matter is that as long as some effort is made to spell the words properly, and folks remember to use paragraphs where appropriate, I think we can all give each other some leeway. |

Thistleboy, I agree. Stephen Fry explains all that I think is wrong with some people who really should know better. You need to go to around the 8th minute of this clip, the AQI bit, and then the subsequent clip for the rest. For me, it hits the nail right on the head. |

the thing i hate is when people try to look hard by saying "innit" and using "like" way to much, for example: "i like dont wanna do maths like cus its like boreing you know right" and i hate it when people cant pronounce names right, brimiham? BirmiNGham! no they dont have a disability, no its not their accent, their english but they lack in speaking it properly! when white people try to be black, its just not righta and so anaoying! and hanging out in the streets and wont move out of your fucking way when your trying to walk past them because their to cool to move for people like you. "LACK. OF. BRAINS" is what springs to mind, im not perfect but at least i can move out of other peoples way and not be such a dick head all the time. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! all i hear at school from people is "ya man, ur hard nananana" and "init blood" and god knows what else! ugh! anyone know any normal schools? |

(sorry if any of this didnt make any sense and there are spelling mistakes, im not feeling very well today and my brother is being a loud mouth git and when im illl i HATE noise! but i cant go in me room because my mom opened my bedroom window and forgot to shut it to get rid of my hamsters spell, and she forgot to shut it, and its freezing in there and id rather be in the warm, there is a limit to how many layers i can wear) |

I hate the way that these days a lot people think the word 'lose' is spelt 'loose'. As for people pronouncing the word 'ask' as 'arks', then they should be taken out the gene pool right now, seriously, kill them all. KILL THEM ALL. |
