    Little nitpicky words or phrases that aggravate,got any?!?

    First of all,let me say I DO realize that these things aren't important in the least! -It's just tiny,yet common things that people say that grate on my nerves.

    1. -People that say "belly" -I hate that word and always say "stomach" instead.
    2. -People that say something's "on the ground" -when actually it's "on the floor"
    3. -People saying "bucks" to make something sound like a really good deal -as in,"I only paid ten bucks!" -

    I'll think of more and pop in later -have you got any??

    Innit. I cannot stand Innit for some reason. I don't get why people feel the need to say, "Well it's an Iphone, Innit?" or just add "Innit" to any sentence.

    Or saying "I ain't done nothing" wish is supposed to mean "I haven't done anything", even though the phrase itself is sort of contradictory to that.

    How about when people say "it was so quite you couldn't hear a pin drop!" or -"it was so quite you couldn't hear a mouse fart!" -Shouldn't it be you COULD hear in both of those comments?!? -"Innit" -I hardly ever hear that one,but yes,it does have that-slapability factor -duhn't ? HAHA!

    One that annoys me - you tell someone about something sad that has happened to you. They say 'Bless' . Annoying.

    Saying 'cause instead of because.
    Saying ''on'' when they mean ''in'' or ''at''.

    Example: So and so was swearing/cussing ''on'' me. - People don't swear on you. They swear at you.
    I also hear a lot of women say they're ''on their period'' when they actually ''have their period''.

    People typing "loose" when they mean "lose."

    Cutesy euphemisms for anything to do with menstruation.
