    I really cannot stand when someone asks me to "borrow them" something. I will lend it to them.

    "I graduated college" ?? Really? - and they forgot to enroll you in Freshman English?
    "I just finished a training." I really have no idea of what was really intended here.

    Affect and effect always causes a problem for me. I always have to look them up to make sure I use them correctly.

    To, two, and too.
    Your and you're.
    their, there, and they're.
    Also, when people say ''funner'' rather than, ''more fun'' ! (and other variations)

    It amazes me! These people went to school just as long as I did, yet they still don't know how to correctly speak.

    "should of" instead of "should have"

    I see it ALL the time, it bugs me soo much! I don't understand how or why people think that makes sense...

    Just gotta say - your profile pic (at least the one that's showing right now) is hilariously apropos.
