My top three. (the first two are related to forums)

1: "Quoting".

Someone will post a wall of uninterrupted text followed by two feet of pictures. That, in and of itself, is fine. However, a half dozen people will quote the OP, in its entirety, to leave a six word comment.

2: "Premature Posting".

The OP will pose a question and a responder will stop reading after seeing the question without reading the rest of the OP's intent and say: "ooh!" "ooh!" "I know!" "I know!" and hit "reply" without scrolling down and reading the other dozen posts that have done the same and answered the question.

3: "Ice chewers".

The limp hand shake is kinda odd, overly sweaty hand shakes are flat out gross.

I shook hands with a guy a while back that was probably 30 years younger than me, I thought he was gonna break my hand. Not into the overly aggressive hand shakers either. My dad taught me about a firm hand shake when I was probably 5 years old.

Only time I usually make eye contact is when I'm ready to rip someones arms off and beat them to death with them.

Growing up being a stoner you trained yourself to avoid eye contact...parents, teachers, and the LEO's. It's a hard habit to break.

I will admit to being a reformed ice chewer/cruncher. I don’t miss it but I do miss the Diet Mountain Dews.

I have prematurely. . . Well, never mind.

People who take three syllables to pronounce "REALTOR".

They may sell REAL-E-STATE, but they are REAL-TORS.

Also, it is Chest Of Drawers, not Chesterdrawers.

And while I'm at it, people who use "You and I" no matter what.

Correct: You and I are going to the movies.

Dopey: He wants to go the movies with you and I.

Its "me". He wants to go the movies with you and me. You wouldn't say "He wants to go the movies with I."

I feel better now.

Actually the correct usage is “y’all.”

Dopey: He wants to go the movies with y’all.
