In the English language, there are some words and phrases that I
A couple of examples are things I hear in the rooms of AA, but it could be anywhere else for that matter. If you use these words/phrases, please
"serendipity" ... I just hate the way that word sounds
"left to my own devices" ... that phrase rubs me the wrong way every time I hear it
How 'bout you? Got an example?

that I got a lot done at Mom's house yesterday -- in other words, I threw away a whole bunch of stuff
that I finally got in touch with one of my nephews to tell him about moving his stuff

I want to know how to show strike throughs.... please tell me. It would be serendipitous because left to my own devices, I can't figure it out. Sorry dAAve, that was mean. I have so many language pet peeves, I wouldn't know where to begin...
"serendipity" I like this word because there used to be this fabulous dessert restaurant in New York by the same name.
"left to my own devices" There is a Pet Shop Boys song by the same name. It's a fun song and when I hear someone use the phrase I sing the song to myself. Lyrics here.
There are plenty of things that make me crazy:
1. high five in all its forms
2. that stupid fist to fist greeting
3. the misuse of your and you're
4. the current trend of switching pronouns 'me' and 'I'
I could go on and on and on...
So when are YOU gonna drop the word verification thing?
i'm with scott....every time i hear someone say that, it takes me a good 5 minutes to stop hearing the pet shop boys in my head.... i love that song... and it's so true...."i probably would" (set to music, of course)..david
I hate when people say "Period". Come to think of it period is a weird word. I like the English way of saying "full stop". Come to think of it punctuation is weird (full stop). AAAAhhhhhh. See it it'll make you crazy.
Happy Wednesday!
I see you,

I cringe every time someone says ECk-specially, instead of ESSSSpecially. I hear it more and more, not sure where people get that from.
Actually, the word I actually hate is a word I actually use all the time myself actually.
Can you actually guess what it is?
oooh I hate brain fart... eewee gross oh and diarrheah of the mouth
of fuck the shit out of you
those all gross me out and hate it when people say it... it really bugs me
