Phrases/Sayings/Abbreviations Pet Peeves

What are some things that people say or write that just aggravate you?

For example I cannot stand when people write "Jelly" or "Jellie" for jealous.
Happens a lot on FB.
For some reason it just irks the shit out of me!

Also- Prolly for Probably. UGHHHHH! Kills me. Since when did we deem that probably has an abbrevation and WHY is it prolly?

I also can't stand cray cray for crazy- but we had that discussion on here once a while ago I recall. Chat Icon

Most of them annoy me. If I ever use one, it's tongue in cheek.

ETA: Like the other day, DH was telling me something and trying to get me to agree with him and I just turned around and said "TOTES BRO!" Chat Icon

Re: Phrases/Sayings/Abbreviations Pet Peeves

I can't stand when people write words like this:

Yew
LUV
PULEEZE
etc...

It's like nails on a chalk board when I see young adults using made up abbreviations for school or work purposes...you look like a dumb fool.

Learn how to spell correctly.

Oh YES! I hate that sooooo much.
Because OMG is an abbrevation- so why woudl you spell it out.
In that case it would be the same exact key strokes to type out the unabbreviated phrase.
Oh My God
vs
Oh Em Gee!

Phrases/Sayings/Abbreviations Pet Peeves

I hate "kk" instead of okay. It annoys me immensely. As well as leaving off letters or spelling things wrong on purpose: wat, nd, aight, pleaz

My SILs and BILs are in mid to late teens, and extremely ghetto. and Reading their FBs is like watching a puppy die.

Examples of some of their hoodrat statuses:

Just fronted on me like tf I'm tight now. [tf = the f$!k]

Lms for a cuff or duff [like my status for a like or diss]

They use the acronyms and abbreviations that annoy me:
Hmu - hit me up
Wya - where you at
Wyd - what you doing
Lml - laughing mad loud

Re: Phrases/Sayings/Abbreviations Pet Peeves

Kind of different from the above - but one of my biggest pet peeves is when people say, "Could care less." It is "Could NOT care less."

I get that this phrase has become the norm and everyone gets what the person means, but I guess I am just a very literal person. When someone says, "I could care less" I usually say, "So you do care some?"

My first name starts w K, I used to think people were abbreviating "Ok, Kara" when they would say "kk" Chat Icon

I'm sooooo unhip to most of these since I don't have facebook, twitter, pinterest or watch any TV Chat Icon

Literally.

It is used incorrectly most of the time, and extremely overused by anyone named Kardashian.

Like.
Overused to death in conversation.

"I like went to the mall and like bought some new makeup and like then went to Jamba Juice and like met up with my friends.
