Little things that bother you, and are also INSANE.

My default answer to “How ya doing?/How’s it going?/How are you?” -type questions is …

“Yes!”

Then I get to sit back and enjoy the look of confusion on the questioner’s face as he/she tries to figure out what happened.

Of course; I should just say that but for some reason I can’t bring myself to do it.

The Internet has desensitized me to most of the common word replacements; there/they’re/their, your/you’re, etc. But seeing people say “phase” when they mean “faze” still makes me irrationally furious.

Well, that would be messy!:wink:
No, the mayo is on the facing-the-sandwich-fillings side of the bread. But the cheese is in the middle, so that the mayo only comes in contact with the meat.

Ha! Bolding mine; you tried to slip that part past us.

El_Kabong, I think the standard answer is actually “Wassup.” I know that doesn’t make sense.

When someone sends me a report at work, I often find there are TWO FUCKING SPACES BEFORE EACH SENTENCE. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Only MORONS put two spaces before each sentence! These people must be taken out back and beaten. Beaten, I say, beaten!!

This forces me to do a global replace on the entire document (replace all instances of two spaces with one space) before I’ll read the damn thing.

**Sike **or **saik **or anything else but psych, in the “hah hah I was just kidding and learned all of my slang in the late '80s or early '90s” sense.

You can spell **ridiculous **but not distinguish between **less **and fewer?

Depends on your company’s style guide. Bugged me to switch from two spaces (the way I was taught) to one space (my company’s style) when I came here, but it **does **make sense–you can easily do find/replace to switch all double spaces to single spaces, but it’s a lot trickier to switch all inter-sentence single spaces to double spaces.

So I’m with you in the sense of, “It bugs the hell out of me when anybody sends me something that shows complete ignorance of the company style, especially when they had to completely fuck up a template to do it.”

Although that’s not insane, now that I think about it. Quite reasonable, really.

“I got my good jeans from my parents.” Oh, for Christmas? They didn’t pass on any smart genes, did they?

“Throw those over to me can ya?”

“I dunno, never been to africa”

Nom. I hate, loathe, dispise and am repulsed by this so-called word. LOLcat speak doesn’t bother me (aside from discovering it in professional communication, but that’s sane to hate), but nom is of the devil and basement cat, and people who use it are likey terrorist pedophiles of a political bent that you hate.

To be fair the restrooms in our office do have comfy chairs and such in them. Sometimes the ones in public stores and restaurants do too.

Can you think of a better onomatopoeia for someone scarfing food down than some variation on, “Om nom nom nom”?

Okay, maybe, “Arum num num num,”" but that’s it.

grnf, grnf, grnf…” – The Eater of Socks in Terry Pratchett’s “Hogfather”

That strikes me as a particularly sock-y noise, though.

Are you both Sheldon?

Way back in the dark ages, I was taught to type using this method, and it’s WAY too late for me to retrain myself. So sorry.

No no no. The cheese is the mayo barrier that protects the rest of the sandwich from being tainted with mayo slime, and lets the mayo be texturally neutralized by the bread so the flavor can be savored independently. Then you get the mouth-feel below:

Top of mouth: Yummy bread and mayo
Middle of mouth: chewy cheese
Tongue: lettuce, meat, mustard, tomatoes, and everything else.

It could just mean they have so many alts that they already used up all the good names.

I can’t stand the crinkling and crunching of eating snack foods out of the bag - when other people do it. I’m fine with my own crinkles, oblivious to them, but when it’s another person it drives me nuts. I get out my ear plugs and turn on the closed captions if we’re watching something good. What’s that one brand, Crunchers? Ack, the jalapeno ones reek and they’re super noisy.

Well, then, you’re just weird. :stuck_out_tongue:

I have 29 WoW characters, and I came up with “good” names for 27 of them (the other two were created specifically to be bank alts, and have names that reflect that).

Eilyssana, Goriisa, Hodela, Syanalle, Svelexi, Castariora, Dentek, Denassam, Wain, Turanank, Chimtahna, Pinezensuuz, Jenlek, Keliraeda, Uprofen, Wossname, Orahka, Rikka, Hexpot, Alabereith, Fidin, Fahrenz, Sedrel, Annaka, Ozrik, Ponopho, and Lukozh.

I’ll take two, for that splittin’ headache please.
