!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!
... so it says that using "So" to start a sentence is an extremely bad habit and is the equivalent of saying "I KNOW, RIGHT?!!?!!" or "TRUE STORY" in a loud nasally voice like you're the most annoying girl in the office/bar, and that you really should stop doing that.
So, share some of your pet peeve buzzwords, catchphrases etc. whydon'tcha.

They literally dragged me through the mud, then they literally ran it up the flagpole, before literally coming home to roost and finally literally counted their eggs before they literally hatched. Literally is a terribly misused word, literally almost as much so as ironic.

Especially elevator doors. Like they run onto an elevator, want to be the ONLY person on it, and press the close door button as they see you entering the foyer and pretend they don't see anyone. WTH?
But LITERALLY THE WORST PEOPLE on EARTH: those that push revolving doors like they're offensive linemen pushing f'ing tackling dummies. OH I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T REALIZE GETTING INTO THIS LOBBY WAS A FREAKING FOOTRACE COMPLETE WITH STEEPLECHASE. And to that lout who last made this a literal occurrence: thanks for f'ing ruining the sole of a fine Italian shoe, you buttface. What did the shoe ever do to you?

Oh, and my list of pet peeves is huge but the biggest one has to be singing along with music, or doing half-hearted attempts at dancing (or just wiggling) around like an idiot) at the same time.
Second biggest is people who don't pay attention to a movie or walk out/skip scenes.
Also people who quote movies out of context, particularly Disney movies, people who "self-identify" themselves as something ("I'm an honest person, so..." or "I'm a nice guy"), people who say any of the following: "I can't even", "That's so ___", "That feeling when you...", or ANY meme in real life. I also hate people who "freak out" over things like bacon, cats, etc.
People who start sentences with lowercase letters.
All children, and people who think that children are the most important part of their lives.
And anyone who fucking posts an Oatmeal comic. It forces me to suppress the urge to irrevocably remove them from the gene pool.

What really really annoys me, is when people didn't hold the door for me when I was on crutches (spent a month on crutches at each age of 21, 24 and 26). Screw you people! I am hurt, sometimes I was really really hurt!
What *really* got me though although this girl didn't do anything wrong in particular was one day going to school, the security guards were on strike. The busses refused to cross the picket lines so you had to walk from the edge of Uni campus to wear you were going.
In Canada, in Feburary, in a bloody snow storm. Healthy people make that walk to the beginning of the buildings on campus in like 10 minutes.
When I was on my crutches on this bus almost right before I got off...this girl said "I can't imagine how this could get any worse". I didn't say anything, and again she had done nothing wrong....but I really wanted to yell...."I CAN!"
I really really really hated the strikers that day.

Last time that really annoyed me was a couple years back when Microsoft was touting IE 9 or Windows 8 or something and played that obnoxious dubstep "Too Close".
We're watching the Superbowl or some bowl game and this girl starts singing along with that song during the commercial and did everything but put her hand to her imaginary monitor earphones and sing with a vibrato.
The air kinda left the room and everyone suddenly and simultaneously realized why she's always annoyed us.

Good job suppressing the urge. It's when you don't care to suppress it that you start to look silly and curmudgeonly. It would've been funny though, if said with a smile and some light sarcastic tone.

so, then these things are what you DON'T like?
also, other than my wife, my kids ARE the most important parts in my life. Mostly because they are awesome though.
i am just an honest person.
that feeling you get when your favorite song is on...
i am dancing in my office chair and singing some of the lyrics to it.

I think the depth of the hate comes from the type of mind that a person would have to have to honestly believe that if they sing out loud without being asked to, that other people will appreciate it or join in, the same mind that would think that you'd be a bad person for not liking singing, because music is so "inherently good". It's a warped, warped mind in my book.

I start a lot of my sentences with "So...", but then I go back and delete the "So". I am trying to break that habit.

This reminds me of a habit of mine that I brought to a screeching halt one day when I noticed how annoying it was coming from other people. Behold:
You haven't seen "The Deer Hunter" [or insert your landmark piece of cinematic achievement here] ???!?!!?! You gotta see that, dude.
Yeah, I was guilty of it for a while. Unless you're Roger Ebert, you cannot say this. Even Roger Ebert cannot say this. Wait, I mean, if Roger Ebert was alive, he could not say this. Shoot, I'm definitely going to hell now.
What I mean is: movies are just celluloid. You've seen them or you haven't. You like them or you don't. It' like sausage: there's a thousand types of it; some like and have tried all; others have just had a little Jimmy Dean at breakfast and don't deserve to be put down for it.

Awesome. No, your fucking sandwich is not awesome. Landing a robot on a comet is awesome.
So, So is so one of my favorite Peter Gabriel albums.
