My spelling/grammer is usualy horrible, but there is still one thing i hate to see typed, or hear spoken for that matter.
When people say "I could care less." when what they mean is " I could'ENT care less" however i once was able to preswade my brother because he said he could care less.

Actually..err..saying " I could care less" isn't exactly wrong in the way they mean it ,and you spelt "couldn't" wrong as well because ent is actually a dialect of "isn't that so" in our country.

Well, it depends what they mean. Most of the time (at least in my experience), people use that phrase synonymously with "I don't care." So in general, I think the proper use of that phrase is "I couldn't care less."

My grammer blows, so dont correct me, but I have other pet peeves.

1) really quiet music, either turn it off or blast it people!

2) people who do ANYTHING off-beat, dance, drum, tap your finger, or even bob your head...BUT DO I RIGHT!!!!!!!!

3) stupid people, includes racist's, bigots, and anyone else who play Enemy Territory

4) when the mayonaise from the sandwich you made for lunch sokes into the bread.

5) the move "Auto-potion"

6) people who start a game on easy mode

7) people who cheat their first time through a game

8) people who talk in all caps for no reason. (i.e MY DOG IS BROWN...what does i.e stand for?)

9) fat/ugly chicks who think they're hot

10) people who disagree with me when im right.

I Hate The Way Everyone Puts Ya, Or Yea. When It Is Simply Yes, Or Yeah

I hate when people start all their words with caps. I really, really hate that. Your/you're, their/there/they're, we're/where/wear, to/too/two, simple grammatical mistakes that even I have been known to make and yet grate on my nerves at every moment.

And don't get me started on this u r 2 gr8 bullshit that's all over the internet. Every time someone says 'ur' it is like fingernails on a blackboard.

I really hate it when people on a forum will post once on a topic (especially when they post something stupid) and then they will never explain their post or respond to those who try to point things out. It doesn't happen very much here, but I've seen a couple of places where there's just one or two posters that do that constantly.

Something else that really irks me is when you post something on a forum, and then like two posts later in that thread, someone posts basically the same thing you just posted, but word slightly differently. Then everybody begins responding to that post, further giving credit to that poster, as if I never even said anything! C'mon people if someone has already made the point you were going to make, don't just restate it!

i hate when preps go around wearing stuff from HotTopic because they saw it in LimitedToo thats BS posers

Since the grammar thing is a dead horse at this point, I'd have to say my next biggest pet peeve is when I have a word on the tip of my tongue but can't say it. I'll spend what seems like forever trying to figure out the word I want.
