@bench, what is your 1 rep max for cat bench pressing?
Well, right now, I have only two cats to bench press. I've been cat pressing the 8 lb one and thinking about moving up to my 12 lb cat. First I want to dye him pink, though. Wouldn't want to become bulky.
New Rules of Lifting Cats for Women? NROLCFW?
You may be onto something. Wanna partner with me and write the book? And we can start up a gym and all of the equipment will be cats. Although, cats might suck when it comes to cardio because they're lazy b!tches.0 -
I work in Bangor Maine. That's Bang-gore, not Banger. THERE IS NO FREAKIN' E IN THERE! Sales reps call it Banger (as in Bang-ger) all the time.
I lived near a town in Michigan called Bangor..and people ALL the time pronounced it Bang-ger...drove me nuts!!0 -

You should sit in the same room as me and you will really be offended. I just ate beans and broccoli.

"Loosing" weight offends me.

whenever i see people do this it gets me so pissed off haha0 -
Maybe it's just me, but...it rubs me the wrong way when people call soda "pop." You call it by the brand name/'soda' or you call it nothing at all!
don't be rippin on sweet brown!! she needed to go down and get herself a cold pop!0 -
It grates on my nerves when people say 'jealous' when they mean 'envy'. Just a pet peeve of mine, but I never say anything because I don't want to appear petty. And I'm sure I make more than my share of grammatical errors, too.0

That's a regional thing. I live in western New York State and calling pop soda in these parts is fightin' words.0 -
my colleague keeps calling our other colleague "Philips" .. her name is Phyllis !!!!!0

One of my biggest pet peeves is hearing people pronounce across with a T on the end, "acrosst".0

I don't know if this is a southern thing either but I heard a lot of "warsher".
Do you need to use the warsher to warsh your clothes?
yes it is! i hear it all the time. Im in Nashville.
In Pennsylvania it's 'worsher'. It slays me.
Must be a Tennessee or Arkansas thing my sister and mother lived there and they say warsh. I'm in Georgia and I say wash...drives me nuts. I have heard it more in those states than mine...or maybe the people I'm around know the difference.0 -

In Canada it's always pop. To me it's offensive when someone calls it "soda"!0 -

defiantly.....................................its definitely people!!!!
soda/pop is called soft drink0 -
I love this whole thread! The latest word that annoys me is "stabability" (stability). The first time I heard it used in a meeting, I was shouting "STABILITY!!" in my head and I had to bite my tongue to stop myself from actually correcting them in front of everyone >.<
Also, everything that you all have mentioned before - the use of irregardless, misspelling "definitely", lack of ability to use "would", "could" or "should" appropriately, people requesting that you "revert" to their emails ... !
Oh! Does anyone else ever see this in emails?
"The below email refers."0 -
Kady Perry instead of Katy Perry or Budder instead of Butter. Even worse is Shtay instead of Stay!0
-
How about people that say TIE-ota instead of TOY-ota?0
-
It makes me angry when people pronounce condom as comdom. Just why?0
-
In Canada we say "eh" instead of "A".0

I love this thread!
First, I want to slap people who say prolly or prob-ly instead of probably.
Also, when someone is new at school or a job, they are orienting, NOT orientating!
And finally, I am a nurse and it drives me (and ALL other health care providers) insane to hear medications pronounced incorrectly! For instance, OxyContin, NOT Oxy-COTTON. I have a list a mile long, but will spare you. It's your medicine, if you're going to bother to take it, learn how to pronounce the name- it could save your life. Oh, but they're too difficult, you say? That's why the pharmacist attaches a leaflet to the bag, as required by US federal law, which includes a pronunciation guide, so you have no excuse.
I'm off the soapbox!0 -

Or when you ask what medication they're taking and they say "I don't know...it starts with a P." Learn the names of the **** you're putting in your mouth, people! :laugh:0 -
Also, when people say "Oh I'm OCD about..." 1. you cannot be Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. Seriously. Think that out. "Oh I'm so Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder about keeping my house clean." See how stupid that sounds? You are not OCD...you have OCD. Which brings me to number 2. You probably don't actually have OCD. Stop making a mockery of an actual serious condition. :grumble:
I will put my soapbox away...for now.0 -
