Whenever someone in real life says the following:
"burb" They're pronouncing a fucking abbreviation.
"lol, wtf" Any chatspeak seriously used in real life. Especially "pwn."
"r-tard" Obnoxious, especially when used in conjunction with any of the words above.
I'll stop there for now.

The kiddies in my class are shouting "noob" and "nab" to eachother all the time...

It's so fucking annoying.

Any English words that become Americanized/incorrect

Some examples: Color, Plow, Realize, Airplane, Donut.

Which in real English would be: Colour, Plough, Realise, Aeroplane, Doughnut.

What's more annoying is how Firefox is highlighting those real English words and saying they're wrong, despite the fact that my windows is set to UK English.

>.> Cry me a river, a country thats separated by an ocean from yours spells some words different... its not just you that I am saying this too. All the people that make a big deal about something so trivial.

Curse words are really annoying to me when the person using them doesn't have the right voice. High, whiny, girly, ect or if they can't even curse well. Just go watch Death Proof and you will share this hate with me.

asså.Hate it when teenagers say that in every sentence.

I'm not annoyed by real words, but I hate mispronounced, misused, and made up ones.

Mispronounced: "ekcetera" "asteriks" "onvelope"
Misused: "compliment" instead of "complement" (happens WAY too often)
Made up: Anyone who says "lawlz" in real life should be shot.

Despair · « **Reply #19 on:** October 13, 2007, 01:48:02 pm »

Mispronounced: "onvelope"

That's an acceptable pronunciation.

Just for the general information of everyone, I frequently use all of the words that have been mentioned and make an effort to make them more commonplace.

I also use all the words that are eventually going to be posted. And all others that haven't been said or don't exist but are equally as, or more, annoying.

Never tried, but I assumed the programmers at Mozilla may have been intelligent enough to let FireFox load language settings from windows instead of making the assumption that everybody ithe entire universe who uses the internet lives in the United States. And as far as I'm aware there isn't even an option to select a language in FireFox's options.

I'm just saying if they're going to use English as their country's first language then they should have the common decency both to pronounce and spell it properly instead of altering and adapting spellings to make it easier for the less intelligent persons in their population.

The Australians don't seem to have a problem with it.

America was founded by people that wanted to get away from England, heck we ever fought a war to get England out of our country... Is it really that surprising we do a few things different?

oh please, we made it that way because you guys didn't even have your own "proper" spelling rules, I have a 1600's primary source document to back that up!

Go to tools, options, advanced, general.

Aren't you making the assumption that programming is easy? Is there any browser that does so? Perhaps you should switch to IE 6, surely the best browser ever.

programmers do seem to forget things a lot, Age of Empires 3 has been out since 2005 and it still doesn't have some basic bug fixes.
