'Cuppa' grates on me as well. No clue why.

Because it's similar to "coulda", "shoulda" and "woulda". It should be "cup of", just as it should be "should have", "could have" and "would have".
 
Weird maybe, but I really dislike being tapped. Not like, "oh hey, tap-tap, notice me talking to you!" More like, "we're talking, you're definitely engaging me in conversation, annnnd I'm just gonna go ahead and reach over and tap you to emphasize shit."
I'm sorry, that's why we have so many words and options for intonation.
:p
 
When people open a cabinet door (whether it be kitchen, bathroom, pantry door , closet door,.... WHATEVER.......) and LEAVE IT OPEN!!! I CAN'T STAND THAT!!! It drives me insanely crazy, why are people so damn lazy that they can't shut the cabinet door or drawer when they are done?

I'm right there with ya in reference to the cupboards and closets but not the entry doors. It drives me so stupidly crazy that there are some cupboards in this house that just won't close all the way. 8(
 
Grammer is another one of my pet peeves, I CAN'T stand it when people txt "da" why can't you just say "The," or lyf why can't you spell life? Or "Alright," why does it have to be "Aight," its sooooo annoying.....

Yes, that totally has to do with grammar.
 
All of the small-talk made about how holiday merchandise "seems to be coming out earlier each year."

RL: I saw a Christmas tree at the mall today.
Person: Wow, you know it seems like they put that stuff out earlier and earlier each year.

RL: I am going to buy some Valentine's Day cards today.
Person: They are already out? I swear it's earlier than ever before.

RL: I think that the liquor aisle is just past the Christmas display.
Person: It's not even October yet. They should stop putting it out earlier each year.

I could say that people start complaining about holiday merchandise earlier and earlier each year, but that would just be silly now wouldn't it...
 
lately ive been trying to avoid reading youtube comments

but i find myself scrolling down subconsciously and boy is 4/10ths of the world fuckin retards
 
i drive a car with a manual transmission and i find that many people stop way too close to the rear of my car at red lights, because i'm in the USA where every dipshit drives an automatic anymore.

i am pretty damn good at not rolling back at all but jeez, gimme a break anyway.
 
yeh the rule is to be able to see the tyres of the car in front

even my parents who are safety conscious want to try and get within an inch of the next car, i guess its just a weird habit
 
most people cant tell whether a car is auto or manual as they pull up behind it
 
When people creep too close to me at a red light, I usually just keep my foot on the break, but shift into reverse. More often than not they back the fuck up when they see the reverse lights come on.

if you are (one is) starting on an incline and you roll back you're not in control of your car. if you can't start on an incline without rolling back, you should not be driving.

i agree that the person behind you should leave a safe distance, not least because if somebody shunts them, they won't necessarily shunt you...
