Oversleep Posted April 22, 2016 Posted April 22, 2016 I don't have problems with "immediate". I have problems with vowel combos."bureaucracy" "Continuous". I can't remember it for the life of me.
Orlion Blight he/him Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 This really only causes me mild annoyance, but I still roll my eyes whenever someone says "for all intensive purposes" when they mean "for all intents and purposes." I prefer "for all extensive purposes." 1
Sunbird she/her Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 When I can't find a forum thread I'm looking for even by using the forum's Search function. =[ The Shakespeare thread seems to have disappeared on me.
Sunbird she/her Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Looks like you found it! Yes, I did. No thanks to the Search function, though. o_O Oooh. Just discovered another one: when a video ad has a mute button, but the sound continues after I press the mute button. Sense, this makes none! Edited April 24, 2016 by Sunbird
Delightful Posted April 24, 2016 Posted April 24, 2016 Confession: I can't spell guard. I always get the A and the U swapped.
Pinnacle-Ferring he/him Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 I prefer "for all extensive purposes." For all intensive porpoises. 3
Sunbird she/her Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Huge gatherings on BYU campus that make it impossible for students to find parking that won't result in a ticket. (Women's Conference looms ominously this week...)

I surmise from this post that you are also annoyed by overuse of the word "like". Am I right?

The Invested Beard Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 The word Abominable. No real reason, I just hate that word.
ThirdGen Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 The word Abominable. No real reason, I just hate that word. Sounds execrable.
Delightful Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) The word Abominable. No real reason, I just hate that word. Even if if refers to the Snowman? Edited April 27, 2016 by Delightful
The Invested Beard Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 Even if if refers to the Snowman? Yeah that guy's a jerk.
Sunbird she/her Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 The word Abominable. No real reason, I just hate that word. I hate the word "salient." I don't have a good reason, but I do have one: my freshman year at BYU, I had this civics professor who gave homework assignments that somehow managed to be both boring and difficult, and he would always talk about "Make sure to hit the salient points, everyone." So now I associate that word with that professor and all the angst that class caused me.
AerionBFII he/him Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 When i borrowed a Sanderson book from the Library and some Son of a Half witted W*ore Mongering Chull had written spoilers to the ending half way through. I buy Ebooks now.

TwiLyghtSansSparkles she/her Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 I do not like the word "panties" and I don't know why. 1
The Invested Beard Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 I was going to post a meme about panties, then realized I was at work and thought better of what that google search would look like. 1
