Use of the term "email" without a modifier, e.g., email message, email client (program), email address, etc.
If someone asks me what my email is, i reply "Thunderbird."
I think you're mixing up your major holidays. Pancake day is in February which was during baseball season. Waffle day is in August when college baseball is over.
It happens. I mix up the months for MLK day and President's day all the time.
Like the nuts coming from Safe and Lexington bowling back towards the courthouse speeding to just to be able to pass 1 car.like they going to to their destination faster.
Why is it everything you do on the internet or phone nowdays you are asked to complete a survey?
Uptalkers who put a question mark after a written statement. Or uptalkers in general.
One of my coworkers does this.

When someone says, "I'm gonna do it". Gonna is incorrect and it should be: I'm going to do it. The real problem I have is with either statement. Do, or Do Not. Even Yoda knew that.
I understand, but me purchasing their product or using their service should be metric enough! They should be running that metric on the people that don’t use them!
I can't prove this, but I believe I could care less is actually the correct phrase. It's the tone that matters. Its supposed to be sarcasm.
Most people screw it up in conversation and you can't catch the tone at all on the internet.

Sometimes it’s about their staff or facilities. I agree, I also get a lot of surveys but I often don’t answer them.
Pretty much anything my mother-in-law & sister-in-law does. Especially when they talk so loud in public because they want everyone to hear their conversation.
Oy vey! My ex monster in law used to come over to visit and didn't know you're supposed to leave so people can get some sleep because some folks have jobs. She would always spend 30 minutes after she said she was leaving searching for her damn keys. I started watching her when she came in and I would spot where she sat the keys. Then when she couldn't find them, I'd hand them to her.
When I talk to someone, and they keep saying "basically".
Basically they were in a 4-3-4 defense. Our quarterback was basically throwing underneath it. The running game was basically working, because the linebackers were basically in pass coverage.

Starting each sentence with "I mean"! Grrrr!

I could care less means that you do care to some extent, i.e., less caring is possible.
I could not care less means you've reached the bottom.
Yes, I understand that. That's why I said it was used as sarcasm and tone matters.
I you're just looking at the words and ignoring tone, you're right.
Except you asked a question. She puts them at the end of statements? Like that.
In essence, FGF is tone deaf; that's just the nature of the written-only word.
I agree but being called a tater when you are an USC grad really hurts. Please use it wisely.
You are reading my mind. Big fan of Goody's here but the new packaing sucks.
Don’t use Goody’s then? Other aspirin products are available. Is using it a cool thing or something that your dad did?
It gets rid of my headache pretty quickly. And yes it's very cool to use Goody's powders. When I'm at "da club" , I pop out a goody's and all the ladies come running my way.

I use it because it works quickly. My dad never used it and I really never wondered whether or not it was a cool thing to do. Do you take over the counter drugs to impress the ladies?
Not really. Both are manufactured by the same company and the packaging is identical.
