When I was a teenager, I used to say samwich rather than sandwich. Didn't even know that I was doing it until some rude woman corrected me; it was obvious that she took delight in doing so.

I absoultly hate it when people say "same difference" ... IF THEY ARE DIFFERENT THEN THEY ARNT THE SAME !!!!

Example Convo:

1: I Love Lemons
2: Actually thats a Lime
1: Same difference

UGHHHH

Ok, how about when someone says:

"I have exactly the same one !" (No you don't, it's not possible. It may be similar, it may look like it, but it can't be the SAME one.)

My sister says 'spagettis' since she is making more than one !

LA~Poulet :

In reference to a person in labor, I hear "Dialated" all the time, and "sonimeters"

Women don't "Dial", they dilate and it is measured in centimeters.

I worked in OB (I'm an RN) and you wouldn't believe the people who actually say dilitated. Pronounced: "DILL-uh-tate-ted"
Some of those people were nurses.
How do you dilitate?

This sounds goofy, because I am dylexic and I myself can't spell. But what bothers me is when my husband or kids say " Tommy and Me did ... whatever ." It should be Tommy and I did ....
I correct my husband all the time and I don't know why but it just doesn't sound correct. lol.

We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. Can you really cross a bridge before you get to it?

Fitty cent, ninty nine cent

Pasture = Pastor

any kind of stating the obvious drives me for instance when I got about 8 inches off my hair and my co worker says "Did you get a hair cut?"

My grandmother says pie-anna for piano. She's also one of those people mentioned earlier who "warshes" things.
One of my biggest pet peeves is when prople add sn "s" to the end of a word instead of using the correct word:
They're gonna go get thems cars... (instead of their cars)
Your chickensez coop needs cleaned... (instead of chickens')

 

[sparkles2307]

lol sometimes it looks so bad you dont want to be like "oh.....my....gosh you cut your hair." lol so you have to ask to avoid sounding as ill as it makes you feel to look at it
