Pet peeves

[Doorag]

Oh, I just remembered another one.

People who push the crosswalk button then go ahead and cross against the light. By the time the light actually changes for them, there's no one there. They do it ALL the time in the UK and it is extremely annoying.

[*]I need to get some part's for my car. - NO! it should be "parts". (This is so common I can't believe it. Some people use an apostrophe with every word that ends in 's'.)
[*]The dog hurt it's paw. - NO! It should be "its".
[*]Its too fast for me. - NO! It should be "It's".
[*]I went to Chris' house - NO! It should be "Chris's" even though it looks wrong.

It is "Chris' house"- you don't ad an extra "S"

Just thought of another pet peeve; I hate when people say "hubby" instead of "husband". Drives me nuts!!!

Only in the US. In the entire rest of the world it's the other way. Singular words ending in 's' get an 's added.

Even worse is people saying 'partner' instead of "husband" or "wife".

No but thats why we do it........ I don't really like the names she calls me either (even if they are good natured)

As long as she is NOT an old lady, I think it's ok!

Thy world is not thy ashtray! This really hit home one day while driving into Boston and stuck in traffic... creeping along 93 south. I was idling away and thought, how different the center median looked. When I turned my head full sideways, I realized why! At 80 mph, you don't notice. At 3 MPH, you can see a 2" CARPET of cig butts!!!!! WTF people!?!?!

You're fogiven if you promise to not do it anymore. Ashtray and empty at home? PLEASE?!?
