"LOL" (not when people write it, but when they actually say it outloud"

This one really bugs...

"I could care less."

Read it slowly. The meaning of this phrase is that there is a measure to which you COULD care even less. In other words - you care, if only a little bit. What most people mean is "I couldn't care less." AKA... "There is no measure that could describe how much less I could care about this topic."

I hate when people say "of" completely out of context. But for some reason its been happening a lot lately. I'm trying to think of an example, but it seriously is so out of place when it's used I can't even think of one. Does this happen to you?

You really should have just said that it bothers you when Brian speaks!

And as I was typing this, I heard him say, "dad-gum-it". You can add that to the list.

"melk" instead of milk
"rum" instead of room
"prolly" instead of probably
"birt-day" for birthday(my dad)

that is it.

Using "for" instead of "so"...

Example: "Why would you go to the store?"..."For I can buy stuff."

Ugh!

And I don't hold it against people, but I really appreciate when people pronounce the first "r" in February.

So we need to duplicate them twice?
