I have a neighbor who always uses a sentence with the pronunciation "yooston" or "yooman" if I say something with the word Houston or human, like she is trying to correct me. It's on my nerves.

Another Freecycle gem:


stainless steal sink w/ faucet (**** addition)


EDIT: That's interesting. The word starred out is 'like' with a d instead of an l.

I used to work with somebody who talked--often--about the damage that resulted from Hurricane "Yugo".
They named a hurricane after a wretched-quality car from Yugoslavia?
Really?

Oh, the world can't handle two of me. I'm obnoxious.

Here's a guy who is trying to tell another guy that his grammar is atrocious. It's pretty ironic.

Dude, you can't even write English or spell... What the __- makes you think (with you're third grade education and lack of offer ap high school courses that all of the sudden you know what the ___ you're talking about in terms of socioeconomic' s, or somehow became smart?

Perhaps they've been drinking too much.

This is from the facebook page of a local pre-made pizza business. I was just in there for the first time since I was about 14 years old. I asked if they had any pizzas ready since I didn't see any in the freezer. The counter person said, "Umm. No? I mean, if there aren't any in the freezer, I guess?" And then he just stared at me for a minute. Finally he said, "But I can make one, if you want me to." I answered, "Awesome." But, you know what? It really wasn't so awesome.

That's one of the things "I can't take any more" - terrible customer service. You request the company's signature product and they come back with a response that basically means "Like, duh - can't you see we don't have that."
