LMAO...my landlord says "Earl"
He also says "Burla" instead of "Boiler" and "Turlit" instead of "toilet"
He is also the same person who while fixing my stove, told me that he had to get the "genetic" part instead of the "generic" part. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: my sister says nine with a g at the end and always mispronounces bowling for balling and vice versa. It's a family joke that she still does it after all these years

Re: "YOUZE" .....

Earl and terlit at least can just be an accent, but the others (youze, axe, moms) you are choosing to say the wrong word. And to write it... are you kidding me?

The overuse of "I" is really irritating, but I try to let that go because I think people just get so nervous that they use it everywhere and hope for the best.


The incorrect use of I bothers me to NO END. I seriously work with some of the brigest and best lawyers in the WORLD and I constantly see it written incorrectly in emails and spoken incorrectely. "Please send that to John and I." Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

It makes my skin crawl.



This is one of my biggest pet peeves as well. I think people think it sounds "smarter" to use I. But I think my pet peeve comes from the thousands of drills in German class on the dative tense and prepositions. This and ending in a preposition: Where you at? you don't save any syllables! Where are you!

Re: "YOUZE" .....

it really makes me nuts when people say or write "i should of" instead of "should have" or "should've".
also, i have noticed people misusing the word "mortified" recently. not sure what is up with that. the word means to feel extreme shame or embarrassment. yet people use it all the time to describe being shocked and/or grief-stricken or angry. weird.
