    Ugh, I hate it when people say irregardless.

    Irregardless isn't a word. That would be without-without regard (double negative). The correct term is regardless.

      This is a really anal one, but using WHO instead of WHOM or the other way around.

        My biggest grammatical pet peeve of all time?

        People who say "NUCULAR" instead of "NUCLEAR".

        Like the president... :D

          I usually catch myself before I let the "Nucular" out, but I think it's because I'm so used to the term nuke. That's more phonetics than grammar though.

              what bugs me more than spelling errors is when someone goes on and on and on about any given topic or whatever and they never seem to use the correct punctuation such as commas and periods and semicolons so you have no idea when a sentence starts and ends instead of rambling on in one continuos sentence which seems to have no ending whatsoever that you can see it is really irritating to some of the people who post here who are more critical of such things

                    I hate it when people don't know how to use (or too lazy to use properly) the word, 'might,' and its variations right:

                    - 'I minus well as post in this stupid thread.'
                    - 'I might of posted in this stupid thread.'

                    edit: where can I get a t-shirt that reads "Your retarded"?

                        English aint one of my strong points

                        But I talks real good.

                        It didn't help that English class was always right after lunch. 99% of the time lunch consisted of humbolt's (did I use it properly?) finest green!!!!

                          The funny thing is, most of you posting with complaints towards poor grammar aren't even forming sentences.
