    When people use the word his instead of he's. Some idiot on fb constantly writes about her son, and she always says "his my world"

    People who write "your" instead of "you're" or "you'll"

    E.g
    "Your so stupid"
    "One day your know what it's like to have kids"
    Oh god, this annoys the hell out of me! Also people who have to put an apostrophe in any word that ends with an "S" like "tomatoe's" or "he water's the garden's".

    :eek: That would seriously annoy me. I think some part of my brain is dedicated to being a grammar Nazi.

    People who can't hold up a good conversation.
    People who can't just chill out.

    When for example I am wearing a new pair of shoes, and someone says "Do you have a new pair of shoes?". Yes, hence me having new shoes on my ****ing feet.

    People who spell definitely with an 'a'. The amount of people who do this is actually quite disturbing.

    Old people moaning about the 'youth of today' when half of them are ignorant coffin-dodgers themselves.

    Slow walkers, especially in shops.

    Bad-mannered *****.

    Facebook, and people that feel the need to update it constantly.
