    The incorrect use of the following words:
    1.) there, their, they're
    2.) to, too, two
    3.) your, you're
    4.) then, than
    5.) lose, loose
    I think people should not be allowed to graduate high school unless they at least know how to use these words correctly.
    When people say " I could care less" when they actually mean is " I could NOT care less" it really bothers me.
    BOOM! ... I don't know why but everytime I hear or see that it makes me cringe!
    I also hate when people say they are nauseous instead of saying that they are nauseated

    Journey
    Beast/Beast mode
    Skinny-fat

    Please can someone take Journey out back and shoot it?

    Other than that any racist/sexist/homophobic nonsense. It's the 21st century for ****s sake, time to treat people like people!

    "space" as in a room or apartment. just say, "room" or "apartment." You don't sound sophisticated; you sound pretentious.

    "slut" and "ho" as bad as the racial epithets of the 20th century. People have the right to their sexuality. These words are just ugly.

    I HAD a worker constantly refer to my clients and myself as "BOO!"
    She called everyone babe, honey boo and honey stuff! REALLY!
    How bout' this? How bout, just shut up!
    Another word that is wore out is, Whatever." It is an unintelligent way of saying,
    I have no intelligent reply to what you just said.
    I am also getting tired of hearing, True that! Ughhh

    I corrected one of my college professors once when they said acrost :grumble:

    This, and heighth. it's height, people. there's no "th" on the end. it ends in "t" FFS.

    For shizzle (instead of for sure)
    Panties
    Crap
    Rodonkulus (instead of ridiculous) all made up words like this make me cringe
    C**t (used as a derogatory label for someone)
    Moist (I don't know why this makes me annoyed)
    Hate words directed at people related to religion, ethnicity, gender, appearance, age or health
    This blows (I'm not sure what it means)
    When people say 'lol' in conversation

    Modern music lyrics are often ridiculous. Why can nobody make real words rhyme anymore? All the gotchas, dontchas and gonna makeyahs make me "wanna" scream!

    Fenny, (not fanny, like the US use to describe their backsides) but as in a vagina, my best friend says it and i just want to slap her >.<
    When people say mall like they rhyme it with PAL...
    everyone i know hates the word doodle so i say it A LOT hahha...
    when a guy says B*tch, I just can't stand it.

    oh i'd like to add, I live in a really bogan town, so a lot of people say free, when they mean three, it bugs the absolute crap out of me, I want to track down their parents and smack them in the mouth for that >.< honestly a lot of people here talk like a freakin' cockney chimney sweep....

    "Whatever."
    Any use of the word "stupid" makes me cringe, especially...ESPECIALLY if it's a parent to his or her child!
    "Shut up."
