Those that don't seem to know the difference between your and you're, a typo once in the post or misspoken once in a conversation is not a big deal but multiple times?

How do you "misspeak" in a conversation between your and you're? It's conversation.

Never had anyone say for instance "where are your at?" and say it a few times? It should be either ..where are YOU at or in another context....where you are (you're) at.

Never had anyone say for instance "where are your at?" and say it a few times? It should be either ..where are YOU at or in another context....where you are (you're) at.

It shouldn't even be formulated that way, because in correct grammar, you cannot end a sentence with a preposition ("at").

[Tobywan]

Try telling that to people living below the Mason- Dixon line, though "at" isn't always where they end the sentence.

The NBC duo of Pierre "Monster" McGuire and Mike "I'll kick your ass with a shoe" Millbury.
Both are knowledgeable, together they form an idiot.

Speaking of poor grammar, purposely-poor grammar that's supposed to be "hip". Things like "what time it is?" and "going to get my hair did".

Overbooking.

I reserved two hotel rooms in Little Rock on Saturday night so we wouldn't have to drive home after the concert.

Well, we show up after the concert only to find out they overbooked and we had to be moved to another hotel (same company) 5 miles away.

What's the point of a reservation if you don't reserve the rooms?

And yes, i realize this is common practice that airlines also use, but that doesn't make it any less stupid.

And at least the airlines will compensate you with a free flight if you have to be bumped.

When people tie that pointless knot in a plastic trash bag in a usually futile attempt to keep it from falling in.

Most of the time it fails at its intended purpose and the only thing it winds up doing is taking up surface area that can be used for tying the bag shut when it's full.

Humidity.

People that don't clean up after themselves.

When job interviewers tell you they'll let you know on specific day either way...and then never contact you, which I guess is their way of letting you know.

Queens of the Stone Age / Them Crooked Vultures...Josh Homme in general.

People who reply to threads on message boards with "Wow, just wow." Because it's never "just wow," especially since the "just wow" is most likely the result of something out of the ordinary or so over-the-top or so deep which clearly requires more of a response.

I'm going to guess that you like this clip then.

M.I.A. is at war with everyone and I could care less.

People who boo and/or complain about bunt attempts during a no-hit bid.

If you want to get a no-hitter you should earn it.

Why should the other team cater to your no-hitter?

If the batter feels a bunt attempt is his best shot to get on base he should go for it. The pitcher and defense should just do their job and try to prevent it.

I'm tired of going out to restaurants and encountering annoying babies/children.
