When I was in grade school I had a friend who's dad insisted on calling the building with books inside a "Libary" (as in lie berry). The worst part being we all had the postal zip code of the closest town...Library, PA. I often wondered if the Library in the township building was in fact Libary's Libary to him.

"Two-door Post" irritates me. It's a freakin' SEDAN! Even more annoying... "Two-door No-Post," which is, of course, a HARDTOP!

Thats pretty funny. The G/F calls it a lieberry too, but shes just trying to be cute. She also calls being tired being "tiggered" but shes read too much Poo.

[blunc]

I've always wondered why anyone would name their poo "Winnie"...

[Mike_G]

"Should of" instead of "should've" or "should have" bugs me.

[sjordan2]

Wasn't Elmer Fudd Barbara Walters' speech therapist?

I believe it pronounced Barbwa Wawer.

[John Goschke]

"Then" where what's meant is "Than"

"Manufactures" when what's meant is "Manufacturers"

Really irritating.

[Draggon]

I was gonna say that!

LOL, OMG, BFF, AIIK, WTF, IMHO, ROTFLMAO, they all used to really bug me. I'm not much of a computer guy. GMAFB!

Oooh. I figured out what GMAFB means. Go sit in the corner. LOL.

PS: AFAIIK should be AFAIK. (At least, AFAIK.)

How about the overuse of apostrophe's (sic)?

I predict there could be a world shortage in 2013 because writer's (sic) are using them in the wrong place's (sic).

And how about New Year's that I see so often at this time of year? New Year's Eve? New Year's Day? New Year's Resolution to not misuse the apostrophe??

One that drives me nuts is my father pronounces a 2-wheeled powered vehicle a "motorcicle" (rhymes with popsicle) instead of cycle. I axe him not to but he just tells me to clean the chimley at the libary.

Careful! Lizzie Borden axed her parents and got away with it, but you might not be as lucky...

At least you donn gots to clean the "chimBley" My parents gots a Chimbley and tolded me to clean it. I tolded them they's gots to axe me niceley, and stuff.

This is the funniest thread ever, and stuff.

Went to the urban dictionary. My dad called me goopy and I never understood. Seems it means dopey or brainheaded. Coming from Chi-Town it seems we had a language all our own. Front room for living room, pop for a carbonated beverage, El for the elevated train, brewski for a beer, and couch for sofa. You should understand Harry. Oooo, I'm in trouble when my son calls me "dude"

Shouldn't they be called Enginecycles anyway?

[Deano]

I don't want a pickle, I just wanna ride my motorcicle

And I don't want a tickle, I just wanna ride my motorcicle

And I don't wanna die, I'd much rather ride on my motorcy ...... cle

And,no, I still don't know the significance of the pickle

[Craig Irwin]

But of course, if that two wheeler is an Indian it is a MOTOcycle.

Here is a couple that get me rankled. It's per se, not persay. It's Voila, not Wallah, or wa lah, or wah la. Also the term welp, as in Welp, here we go again. The word is Well.
