    I hate when people laugh at something that is not really funny by saying "lol" (pronouncing it lawl).

    Also, it's very annoying when some replies back to something with "umad?". (please don't reply to this with umad)

    "Random" when you mean arbitrary

    "Above and beyond"

    "Due diligence"

    "Touch base"

    "Off the hook" when you mean off the chains

    Yeah, I'm going to back that one up, and also put out that I hate it when people say "Per say." It is revealing of their ignorance.

    I also hate it when people do not actually know the difference between "e.g." and "i.e." and will use them interchangeably without actually knowing what they mean.

    I am against the idea of combining names like Lowriza... Batrizza... or Scolandry... Yaomac... Karon Marooks...

    or even...

    "If its meant to be, its meant to be"

    "Eat mor chikin"

    OMG

    LOL

    "Hey bud, let's party"

    "I miss Landry"

    lol.

    Irregardless, I think thats pretty ironic coming from a guy whose name is a combination of a dachshund and a barracuda.

    I'm just sayin.

    I hate it when people use lazy criticisms like "b movie plot" or "unoriginal".

    So you ask them for something original and they either have no answer or give you some generic crap.

    In terms of writings, seeing people mess up Their, They're and There always makes me facepalm.

    When people say "I could care less" instead of "I could NOT care less."

    Ironically, everyone uses it incorrectly. It's the in thing now.

    When someone responds to a comment or story by just saying "nice!" and then nothing else. Can you give me a little better feedback or response?

    ^^^ that's pretty funny

    I can't stand when girls overly use the word "Like" I say girls, because I rarely hear a guy say "like" all the time.

    I was referring to moe's comment. I guess I'm too slow in posting.

    I think my soul dies a little when somebody says it, and to think that people around the world hear that coming from America. It's the most ignorant phrase that I've ever heard.

    Next time someone says this, ask them:
    " :rolleyes: What, were you lying to me the other times you didn't say that?" :p
