American English. The spelling, pronunciation, use of additional words that already have a suitable alternative.
Those who say ‘done’ when it would be more appropriate to say “I’ve finished” or “That’s completed” (the only exception should be when a meteor is heading towards earth and ‘we’re all done for’).
Anyone who thinks you’re so stupid that they continually remind you of what the conversation is about, such as, the following deserves to go into Room 101 and anyone can add to this list of things to go into Room 101. Politicians are especially good at this because they like to be easily quotable.
Brand names, or more specifically, when entire categories are referred to by them. Examples would be iPod for mp3 players, Hoover rather than vacuum cleaners, Playstation as apposed to games consoles. There isn’t too much difficultly in saying clear and not Sello-tape, a problem occurs when you refer to a Torx bit. Can I have the five star hexagonal bits please?
Patrick Kielty. Some people are born with the ability to make people laugh, but he’s not one of them. He isn’t as bad as that kiwi on mock the week, who waits until a joke is over and then repeats it, hoping for a sympathy laugh but Patrick clearly hasn’t a witty bone in his body. This results in him trying to poke fun at everything, in an hope that someone, somewhere will find him funny which sort of makes him the real life equivalent of family guy.

Standing at a pelican crossing waiting for the lights to change after pressing the button. Then someone stands next to me and presses the button again. Then a couple join us and they also press the button. Then someone across the road presses the button. This goes on untill the lights change. Seriously, you only need to press it once! And stop button bashing it, that wont make the lights change faster.

He's one guy I can watch and listen to no matter what he's doing, just appeals to me so much. The other is a this guy that lives in my bathroom through the portal that my toothbrush is behind. Fascinating. It's always awkward with him, whenever I go to say something, he does too, and we just end up losing eye contact and walk out. Wish he'd pay more attention to his physical appearance though.
So thanks for that Machie, very enjoyed!
The use of the word "faux" in fashion, just get over yourselves realise it's FAKE, we're not French, and don't say Vrai. (sp?)

EDIT: Machie's one as well, very much so!
