Don't forget " I could of/should of" !! I'd gladly carve the correct grammar into the chest of anyone who makes this mistake. That cretin used to use the phrase 'off of' rather than 'from' which exacerbated the normality of this abuse of language. Off of! Yep that is horrible. Along with “can I get” in a poncy coffee shop!

That cretin Scott Mills used to use the phrase 'off of' rather than 'from' which exacerbated the normality of this abuse of language. Things that used to be "free" (of charge) are now "for free". And people concerned about creeping Americanisation of the English language are wrongly known as grammar nazis by illiterates with low standards. Moseley's comment doesn't help our cause much. Sorry - taken this thread off topic.

I would of ……..just the thought of it makes me want to get the red pen out If we're going down the language route... Using "So" at the beginning of every answer. "My head literally exploded". Anything new "dropping" - e.g. "When does your new album drop?" Using adverse when it should be averse - e.g. "I am adverse to bad weather". Prices without pounds - "This sofa is four nine nine". I'm turning into my dad (that's a statement rather than a pet hate, although...)

Agreed Badge - ‘Can I get?’ does my nut in. As does: ‘Enjoy’ when the waitperson puts down my scampi and chips. ‘Super’ excited/happy/nervous etc The BBC all of a sudden now being ‘across’ all the action from Anfield or wherever I’m going to ‘that there London’ You’ll ‘smash it’ or you ‘smashed it’ ‘We got this’ or ‘you got this’ Facebook photograph posts that say a great night out with ‘this one.’ Facebook birthday posts that are basically saying how great your kids are ‘Happy Birthday to Jaxson! Your (sic) warm, funny, intelligent, caring, thoughtful and clever!’ Fuck. Off.

The 'so good, so good' that has been tagged on the end of the chorus of Sweet Caroline in the last few years. Fucking ruins the song and anyone who sings it deserves to get horrendous gonorrhoea.

1.People who pick up their dog shit, put it in the bag and then just leave the bag on pavement/path/someone's wall. You've done 90% of the job just dispose of it properly. 2. Parking to take up 2 bays - does my nut in.

Not sure if mentioned but inconsiderate recyclers.
There are two large blue bins outside the small block of flats I live in, with a small slot at the top for putting all recycles other than glass into. But inconsiderate fucknuggets have opened the bins and thrown bin liners full of fuck knows what (probably non recycles) so it seems like the council are refusing to take the bins. And I have a few bags full of recycling that I now have to load into my car and drive to sainsburys. Get to sainsburys and it’s the same deal; their two huge bins for mixed recycles are full of all sorts of fly-tipped shit, the cardboard bins are brimming with all sorts of shit. The bottle banks are tiny and full. So now I have to drive to Tesco and can only get rid of glass, as they don’t have bins for anything else. And they probably don’t bother with anything else because horrible cunts throw prams and wood and all sort of shit into their recycling bins. So now I have a car with several bags of other recycling that I’ll have to drive around with for a few days until the tip opens. And all this inconvenience for me stems primarily from the cunts and retards at my flats filling the blue bins full of bags that shouldn’t be there. (and I guarantee my time is far more valuable than the cunts who fill recycling bins full of shit they shouldn’t)
They’re pricks. They’re cunts. They’re retards. They’re all the bad words.
All recycling bins should have small slots at the top but be locked otherwise.
And then most annoyingly; I’m trying to be a decent citizen, recycling like I’m supposed to. Even cleaning off plastic/cans, peeling labels when I can, etc etc. And then very carefully separating it all at recycling centres. Taking the tops off glass before I recycle it. Being conscientious and a good little comrade yada yada yada. And then I see how other people act and it demoralises me and just makes me think why the fuck do I bother? Why don’t I just be like inconsiderate cunts and say “fuck everything and everyone beyond a 1 metre radius of my thick fucking skull”…
Selfishness is a contagion.

People driving behind you with their full beam on, for no reason.
People hogging the middle lanes of the motorway.
Women dropping the 'c' bomb during conversation. It happened the other day, I'm still reeling.
Unnecessary rudeness.
Entitlement.
Ferral chavs aged 9-15. One rode past me *on a mountain bike* in Pets At Home the other night. Shoulda kicked him off it, in hindsight.

People who sit down to eat and don't roll up their sleeves wind me up. It's something small but during dinner time at mine it always comes up as I don't accept it.
And people who look at you funny when you pour a new wine into a glass you just used for a previous one.
