Yes.
For me, this also includes a general disregard for spelling and proof-reading. Not to mention the misuse of homonyms (and homophones).
(And I know I’m not perfect all of the time - for some reason 's always cause me trouble - but I can generally spell correctly.)
you had to follow my rant with that didnt ya :p:p
Do you know that there is an english language sentence that can be said properly and acuratly but can not be written either way?
another thing about the English Language that bothers me is that “goto” is not a word. It should be. There are other examples that i have on the tip of my tongue but can’t quite remember.
Of course it’s a word. How else you you GOTO 10?
answer - " there are three 2’s in the English language." you can say it properly but you can’t write it. would you use to, too or two?
Just weird…
People who say “I could care less about that”. If you can, feel free to do so.
I’m annoyed by the misuse of the contraction “it’s” when the possessive “its” is required and vice versa. Drives me batty!
A coworker of mine does that all the time, with the added annoyance of constantly changing subjects without warning. She could easily be talking about her husband, our boss, and one of the guys in our house, all in rapid succession. It’s maddening.
Nah, that’s easy. Just write it as phonemically:
“There are three /tuz/ in the English language.” 
There, Their, They’re. You’re, Your.
But… if I don’t care at all, and then I say I could care less, then there would actually be negative caring, which transitively means that I would have to decrease the amount I care about other things! :eek:
Not to mention “yore”. Fortunately that’s rarely used in modern English.
And, of course, “thare” and “yoor”. I wish I could say that I’ve never seen them spelled that way. 
Well, personally, I like to use “thier” in place of all three. People always correct me when I do. Then I respond, “your so smrat thx lol”. Then I watch people’s head explode.
People that use their phone in public restrooms.
I’m sitting in the stall trying to go about my business and I have to listen to the guy in the next stall talk about his latest conquest. Can we restrict wi-fi in the bathroom?
We went to Disney this year (leaving my snowblower home safetly by itself …so I thot). Anyway, DisneyWorld is a big place, and since we were traveling with the extended family there was a lot of “spliting up and doing this” and “meeting up and doing that”, etc. That of course meant a lot of cell phoning back and forth. So I’m in the men’s room washing my hands, and my cell phone rings. Like an idiot a quickly try to answer the call while sink is still running—and I of course cover my shorts and shirt with water—I walk out looking like I’ve totally peed in my shorts. Family got a good laugh out of it though.
New rule: I will never answer my cell while in a public restroom again.:o
Data used as a singular noun, unless one’s referring to 
.
Oh, and when one uses ‘literally’ when they mean ‘figuratively’. As in “I literally died.”
I also get annoyed with sentences that end with quotations, because I can never remember if the quotes should include the punctuation mark or not.
I’ve been trying to convince people at work that we should turn our entire floor into a giant Faraday’s cage. Mainly I suggested it because my office is right next to a giant apartment building, and we can’t use Wifi at work because we can see at least 200 access points, all of which interfere with one another. People say, no, that’ll kill our cellphone receptions. I say that’s a good thing.
The same goes for media and agenda, although even grammatical sticklers get them wrong fairly routinely.

Unless you’re talking to a vampire, demigod, or Starbuck.
I also get annoyed with sentences that end with quotations, because I can never remember if the quotes should include the punctuation mark or not.
If the entire sentence is a quotation, the punctuation goes inside the quotes.
Otherwise, the sentence ends with the appropriate punctuation, outside the quotes, with the caveat being there could also be punctuation inside the quotes (in addition to the sentence punctuation) if the quotation is a question or an exclamation.
There. Was that so hard? :rolleyes:
Well, of course, we have yet to conquer the greatest puzzle to confound our generation: how do you end parenthetic expressions with smiley faces. I know great scientific minds are working on an anwer for this quandry, but I fear we’ll never see a solution within my lifetime.
The one that drives me crazy is the difference between affect and effect. I.e. I’m negatively affected by people who use effect as a verb, when it’s really a noun!
