Re: Spinoff- what are some of your other pet peeves/words/sayings that drive you nuts?
Posted by amac27
I cringe when people say "standing ON line." I want to punch someone. You are not on the Internet. There is no physical line you are standing on. You are standing IN a line. Ughhhh. NY is the only place I know where people say ON line.
Technically, most people don't stand in line, they stand in a queue (like in England).... a line is straight, and most of our "lines" curve and bend... 
This is why I don't correct most people IRL. I'm sure I would piss off a lot of people if I said out loud many of the things I think of in my head....

And don't say "we're pregnant." Only one of you is actually pregnant.
Yes! I HATE HATE HATE "we're pregnant". I can assure your the father most definitely is NOT pregnant. It almost seems that they're trying to verify who the dad is.
eta- I should add this also goes for people in relationships that use "we" when it's really not necessary, as if they only exist as a couple. Ok, you have a boyfriend or you're married. . . You still have your own brain, your own life, your own likes, or at least I should hope you do!

Hah, when I was student teaching upstate I got into an argument with a kindergartener over this one.
It took all my strength recently not to comment on someone's fb post stating, "I couldn't of said it better myself." No, clearly you couldn't have.

And my whole family pronounces my daughter's name (Liliana) as Lily-Anna.
How are you supposed to pronounce it?
Yeah, that is how Liliana is pronounced. How do you want it said? I wouldn't know a different way.
We just had someone join our team at work who spells it like that but it's pronounced Lily ANA. (pronounced like ON A)

Spinoff- what are some of your other pet peeves/words/sayings that drive you nuts?
"K"...because it takes so long to write the letter "O"
"Your" instead of "you're"...if I see one more person say "If you don't agree with me, your a moron!" I'm going to SCREAM!
"Lib-tard"
"All (insert type of people) are (insert description that describes a some people in a large group)"...I HATE lumping a large group into one category!!!!

I can's stand this either.
I also don't like when people say "facts" or 'This" when agreeing with something.

When people type "congratulation" instead of congratulations.
The term "snowflake" for political insults
Tubberware, beamline (Beeline), and "aks"
Uh-lantic instead of Atlantic

I want to add "'Merica" bugs the hell out of me! Especially after it's someone ranting about how patriotic they are!
