Things that shouldn't piss you off, but do.
Feel free to add your own. I'll give two really quick.
1. This girl I'm friends with on facebook makes a post about how s
Nobody says the T in often except Brits and US weirdos.
Does it though? the "tr" sound after the I is much closer to a "chr" for me. Or are you really pronouncing it like "tight-rate"?
Have you guys ever really been to a titty bar?
Tit rate. Not really sure I've ever heard it spoken out loud, always just read it. Actually more like ti trate in my head, but whatever.
That's because it's actually Hotlanta and Failcons. Duh.
That's literally the only way I've ever heard it pronounced. But I doubt I've ever heard outside of a chemistry class.
It pisses me off that it took me like four months to post this...
Ventured into the hellhole that is X and two morons were arguing when moron 1 said something clearly wrong and moron 2 replied with "your wrong, search it up!"
Besides the obvious grammar issue who says "search it up"?
I ran a quick Bing and it looks like "search it up" is a modern term. I would have guessed old people.
Grown ass adults who wear uniforms of professional athletes to the game, or even not at a game. You look ridiculous.
Imagine doing that for any other profession. Say you make a reservation at The French Laundry. When you walk in, half the other guests are wearing white chef coats that say Thomas Keller on them. You'd rightfully wonder what the **** is wrong with these people.

Slow walkers in a crowded place like, why are we doing 2 km/h in the middle of the road?
Yeah like when 3 people walk side by side and take up the entire sidewalk.
Really pisses me off that they're called "Instant Pot' rather than Instapot". Who was the dumbass that named these things?
I call mine instapot anyway.
Does it though? the "tr" sound after the I is much closer to a "chr" for me. Or are you really pronouncing it like "tight-rate"?
chr is fine
What's not fine is Tigh-(massive glottal stop and no other sound)-ens. Imagine "tie hens", but remove the 'h'. That's how Peter Schrager pronounces Titans.
My grocery store employs a checker who does this with every item:
- 1. Pick up item, ponder it like you've never seen anything like it before.
- 2. Pause
- 3. Scan Item
- 4. Pause
- 5. Realize the scanner beeped happy
- 6. Pause
- 7. Slowly place item to the left
- 8. Repeat process with next item
If someone's not bagging for him, it's a similar process for bagging each item.
I've learned to use the self-checkout machine and now I'm okay at it. My biggest hold up is getting the damn plastic bags open w/o licking my fingers, which have been touching everything in the grocery store for the last 20 minutes.
Self service is great once you figure out how to put stuff through without messing up the bagging area and confusing the machine.
People that use self-checkout with more than a dozen items should be shot. If they are paying with cash - especially exact change - they should be drawn and quartered.
