I once dated a guy who always said irrelemant instead of irrelevant

I wanted to choke him every time he said it. Chat Icon

The worst offender:

"A WHOLE NOTHER"

NOTHER???? NOTHER????

No people. It is either:

"ANOTHER"

or

"A WHOLE OTHER "

To me, any time someone uses that phrase, it makes my toes curl and I want to clobber the person who says it like Captain Caveman.

Re: words / phrases that drive you nuts

I hate the term "rip someone a new azzh*le" and I also hate when someone says "don't blow smoke up my azz". I am not obsessesd with azz termnology but I cringe whenever I hear both those phases.

And quite a few others already mentioned but I figured I'd add to the list

"Victoria Secrets"

No, it's Victoria's Secret!!!

"Tiffanys"

The store is called Tiffany & Co. If you don't want to say all of that, then just say "Tiffany".

I have retail issues apparently! Chat Icon

Oh and the incorrect use of: Their, There and They're

I justify that one because Fortunoff is actually a family name so I guess Fortunoffs could be Fortunoff's as in the Fortunoff's storeChat Icon

When I was little, my dad told me that "liberry" was a curse word so I wouldn't say it. I think he was joking....but I totally fell for it, and was terrified of saying it. Chat Icon
