This is mine as well, and I actually stated that as well (less the "I'm sorry" part) to a heavy equipment salesman that calls at work. He has never called (me) again!

Totally agree with this one. I can handle about everything but this. My kids all know it and it doesn't take long for their friends to figure it out.

I remember a while back when "Goes" was a substitute for the word said, that annoyed me. The phrase I'm trying to ban being said in my house is "It's not fair" My two grandsons age 9 and 5 spend the weekend with us and bless their hearts they expect me to walk across the room with a cereal bowl in each hand so they get served at the same exact time. According to them nothing is fair and I finally told them that's because there is no such word.

I have to agree with a lot of these, I can't get used to people in the South saying "Ma'am?" when they don't hear or understand what you said. I guess I was brought up with "what?"

I realize it is more polite, and people down here are brought up to be polite. But it makes me feel like an old lady. However the other day two workers were working in my apt. and I heard the more senior one say "sir?" to his associate so I guess everyone uses it for everyone.

I hate the phrase "pissed off".

yous as in "I'll do whatever yous want." seen as in "I seen it." using among when it should be between
don't got, at at the end of a sentence "Where is it at?"

just pay extra postage and handling and the worst is anytime someone uses the Lord's name in vain.

I agree with most of these. A few that bother me the most are "like" as in "she was all like" "and I was all like"
Starting every sentence with "Basically"
Young girls calling people who are older than them Hun or Dear. Seriously I haven't lost my mind yet and I am only 49! lol
And for some reason the word Chipotle, it seems like it is on or in everything right now, and all the different ways people are exagerating to pronounce it just drives me crazy.

I also hate "ax" instead of "ask". Come on, folks, it is only 3 letters and it is pronounced exactly the way it looks. Not that hard.

"Irregardless" .... its a double negative. The word is "regardless". It makes me crazy when I hear it.

And people who pronounce "height" with a 'th' at the end almost as if it was spelled "heigth"
