My pet peeve is the incorrect usage of the English language so predominant just about anywhere you see or hear it. I am speaking of it's use in posts, on the radio channels ingame, spoken by those around you at work or in other public places.

It just takes a little practice for someone to improve their language skills. All one needs to do is make a habit of trying to improve it. To each thier own I suppose.

I'm sure you meant-
My pet peeve is improper use of the English language.  Just about anywhere you see or hear it - in posts, on the in-game radio channels, at work or public places...

It only takes a little practice for someone to inprove their language skills.  All one needs to do is make a habit of trying to improve it.

To each their own I suppose...


My pet peeve is people who constantly think they need to correct my spelling and grammar.

Hehe Hornet, thank goodness I have no kids!

  Oh I forgot one other thing that irks me. When a woman starts to cry, and she takes her finger tip and touches the tearduct, hauling out the tear  and looks at it, and rubs it between thumb and forefinger like its oily.

  I dont know why..it just irks me.

That certainly is a different way to put it and I did note where I could have worded it better. Of course I knew full well that I was setting myself up for corrections of my own use of the language. :D
