    Oh, and the phrase, "one of the only." If it's the ONLY ONE, there's ONLY ONE.

    'One of the only' doesn't mean 'The only one'

    When someone says 'skellington'.
    'Afterbirth' makes me shudder, as do 'membrane' and 'sheath'.

    Oh and people saying 'Oh my God!'

    Oh and another grammar pet peeve - when people use "I" when it should be "me" to sound more intelligent. The rule for that is if you remove the other person from the sentence, would you say "I" or "me" - for example..."This is a picture of me and Tom"...if you remove Tom, you would say, "This is a picture of me," not "This is a picture of I." Soooooo all of those pictures posted on FB or wherever that say, "Mom and I at the beach" are WRONG!!!!!! (Because you wouldn't say, "I at the beach.") Sorry - but that bugs me SO badly. Good day.
    Yes, yes, yes. I have been trying to explain this to my husband but he refuses to believe me.

    Fart
    Zit
    the "C" word

    And though I'm ok with the word "subtle", why's it got to have a "b" in it?

    Fart does sound like a disgusting word but you have to admit a well timed one is always funny
