...with dudes sneezing into the inside of their elbows? who okayed this? all of the sudden, I see men catching their sneeze flecks inside the crooks of their arms. I guess it's a little better than sneezing into your hand and then rubbing it all over someone, but is it all that much? I mean, can't you just lean over and grab a kleenex? jeez.
...people thinking that just because they can't see something going on behind them, it means no one else can. note to you, dude in the elevator this morning, just because you can't see yourself reach behind and pick your underwear from deep within the crevice of your ass doesn't mean I can't see you do it. and one of the last things I want to see at 9 in the morning is someone's forefinger disappear up to the second knuckle into their own ass. or anyone else's for that matter.
...with people pronouncing plural words ending in "--es" as "ees". it started with a meeting three years ago where I heard "processes" pronounced "processees" and thought that was a semi-lame idiosyncracy. but now I'm hearing it all the time. it's as if we as a people aren't able to absorb more than one spelling rule at a time. as far as I know, you only say "ees" if the word already ends in "-is" and you have to change it to "-es" for the plural. you don't pronounce any word ending in "-es" as "-ees". just the other day I heard "practicees". ermf.
