To expand on that, I never understood why guys say, "I'd hit that!"...That just sounds way too much like domestic violence.
...almost forgot, the next person to type "u" and "r" instead of "you" and "are" gets a copy of Webster's Dictionary (UNabridged) shoved through their anal sphincter...
I thought it was because those guys could maintain sexual contact for about as a long as it would take to punch something. This relates to the "wham bam thank you ma'am" school of romance.
I also really dislike when nouns are turned into verbs... "Where do you office?" "I enjoy scrapbooking." WTF???
You must have heard that one in England or something, because I've never head that in my 26 years on this Earth... So Jeff, can I phone you sometime?
I hate media buzz words. Example: Saddam was captured on the outskirts of Tikrit in a (here it comes) spider hole It's like there was a press release to all the media outlets that went something like this.... Attn. Media type people we are calling the hole a spider hole, pretty neat huh? Arouind 9/11 <- another one you couldn't turn on the TV withoput hearing the same 5 words over and over again.
"Hey Sane.... Come over here, tell me what you think about this logo." Sane: "It's pretty good. I think it would be better though if you centered everything, and didn't capitalize all the letters in the company name. That's the regular way to do it, and it looks like the cheap generic tags with the way you've made it." The most annoying thing in the world is when such situations are followed with: "No no, that's how I want it." You piece of ****, I'm not giving my opinion, I'm telling you that you've turned the company logo into a joke. Not because only I think so, but because that is what all JOKES look like out there. Just because you don't have the time or energy to go ahead and change it, don't parlay it into "that's how I want it." It annoys the hell out of me. I KNOW he didn't actually WANT it that way, and what he's actually thinking is "well, it took so long, and besides, he's younger than me, so I MUST know better."

I came up with another word annoys me. Really not so much because it is used incorrectly, but because it has apparently become the correct way to use the word and it doesn't sound correct at all...at least to me. It's a form of the word "light." In the past, I always said a room was "lit." That's how I read it, that's how I wrote it, that's how I spoke and heard it. But within the last 5 years or so, it has suddenly become "lighted." That just sounds so wrong to me. Perhaps I just wasn't paying enough attention and "lighted" has been correct all along. Regardless, I hate that freaking word because it sounds so labored when spoken as compared to "lit."
